Well, George W. had his dad get him into the Air Guard, Rumsfield got student deferments, and Cheney got student deferments.
Seems it was up to us poor schmucks to enlist or get drafted so these rich dudes could stay safe.
Wait a minute, though, John McCain was an the son of an Admiral and graduate of the Academy. He didn't ask for special treatment - even when imprisoned.
Maybe Donald was wrong and John McCain really is a hero. Is that possible?

Dear Guest: It seems you overlooked William Jefferson Clinton? As I recollect he was visiting Canada.
I too am disappointed that Donald Trump made a personal attack on John McCain. Trump should have stuck to his criticism of McCain's ineffectiveness with the VA issue. Trumps mistake is instructive to those posters on Political Talk who make personal attacks against other posters.
