I also know that Cheney used 5 deferments to get out of serving during that war, something about having 'other priorities'. Rummy couldn't make it either, by the way.
Well, Clinton served where? England? He pulled so many strings to BS his way out of being inducted, then ran off to England, returning only when he knew he was "safe" with a high lottery number.
