Again, Purple Hearts are not for heroism, no matter how much you

man for fulfilling his military duty? How many Republicans know what
military duty is?

John McCain, Dwight Eisenhower, Colin Powell, etc. Even Wesley Clark
until he decided he wanted to run for President.


That's four. They don't have to famous Republicans you know, so you
can pad the list a little. How about all the Republicans who had
draft deferments?

What's your point? You asked for Republicans so I gave you
Republicans. Since you want to make this a party issue. How about
naming some Democrats that are alive today that served in military
leadership positions. I'd bet Democrats out numbered Republicans that
fled to Canada to avoid military service too. What about those crowds
of young people that were protesting the Vietnam War in the 60s and
70s. Lots of them were of draft age. What percentage of them do you
think were Republican? Why didn't Bill Clinton and friends serve?
