Rob and chickenhawks
Rob from Dallas (in Paglia's post), your chickenhawk argument is flawed, as are your analogies: first, Lincoln did in fact "serve"; it was in an Illinois militia formed to stave off Indian attacks but in that time it was service so he didn't duck service ala Cheney, Rumsfeld, well the list is endless. Secondly, Roosevelt didn't serve? Shhheeeeeesh. The guy COULDN'T WALK. His sons, however, served with honor in WWII - a commitment to their country Bush's two children avoided as eagerly as their chickenhawk father.
