Now, just a minute, RichieLion. If George W. had put the nation before himself, why did he get all the strings pulled to get him into the Texas Air National Guard instead of volunteering for Regular Army (or other branch) and then volunteering to go to Vietnam?
Let's not divert this question with saying what others did but stick with George W.

You have little real knowledge of the circumstances of his military service beyond partisan rumor and lies, and so I will ignore your deriding his service, and will not comment on his service in a way that suggests it needs defending. He actually does have military service unlike almost every contemporary political figure you admire.
We're discussing Presidents here, and statesmen. George W. Bush was a true statesman, and the first since Ronald Reagan. He's also the last one, so far.
