Excellent post, Janmcn, and excellent points made.

However, none of these wubers will link to anything from Chris Matthews or MSNBC. It is against their mindset to listen to anything except from FOX Noise.

I would think that the wubers on this forum who are Vietnam-era veterans would certainly take exception to their candidate getting deferrments from the draft because of his Mormon missionary work.

I had a couple of good friends in the Army who were Mormons and were draftees. Neither believed in killing, their Bishops supported their viewpoints and both were given C.O. status and were medics.
