anything to do with fact that many of our right-wing pundits have =
Vietnam-era service records that look a lot like Dick "Five Deferments" =

  Some highlights:

  Bill Bennett : college deferment
  Bill O'Reilly: college deferment
  Rush Limbaugh: college deferment
  Michael Savage: college deferment
  Dennis Hastert: bad knees
  Saxby Chambliss: trick knee
  Tom DeLay: wanted to serve but discovered that "blacks and hispanics =
had taken all the good spots"   =20

  Well, darn those glory-hogging blacks and hispanics.  What were they =
doing on the front lines, taking bullets that ought to have been =
reserved for fat white Texan bug exterminators?
