Question. Hypothetical.
And this only aplies to people WITH children.
If you dont/never had a kid then you cant truely grasp the love a parent has for their child.
Well lemme put it to ya this way. Imagine how much you think you would love your child then multiply it by about 1,000

Your back in the 60's  the war is raging and the draft is on. All sorts of people are being sent to Nam and into combat
 
  YOUR son is old enough to be drafted. orrr he IS drafted.

Now Your in a position to be able to get him out of going into combat.

Do you?

You can't.

He refuses to go to Canada and flunks out of college.

Don't feel bad though, he ended up on that wall so that smarter, richer, and better boys didn't have to.

My wife and I have a son. Our only child. He's almost 18, now. He is the center of our universe. I'd do everything in my power to get him into the Guard, or anything equally as honorable. There is no dishonor in serving at home. To besmirch anyone's duty in the Guard is to belittle thousands of good Americans. So what if Bush got preferrential treatment to get in? (and I'm not saying he did) That's the way it was then, and still is today. The spot he was applying for was and still is extremely competitive, and very few candidates got selected without "knowing someone".

A little side note: Bush entered the Guard in May of '68. The period the Dem's are so apoplectic about is a few months in '72 (or is it '73? I forget). The point is, that was into Bush's 5th year of his 4 year obligation.       Am I missing something here? It seems a no-brainer to me that this is a dead issue.
