Ironhorseman, I have printed out your postings to study them and I will get back to you on some things. But for right now Bush's being in the National Guard, well let's look at a few things. The Vietnam war was at it's height, President Johnson made a deliberate decision that no National Guard unit would be used there as there were plenty of draftees. Consequently, at that time there were three ways of getting out of the draft <br />[1] Flee to Canada <br />[2] Claim conscientious objector status and do jail time <br />[3] Join the National Guard if you could get in <br />Dubya had powerful friends who jumped him to the top of a long waiting list to get into the Texas Guard. Oh yeah, he was well prepared to defend the borders of Texas, I think, but not overseas.
