Who cares Jetter about your Uncle or draft status during Vietnam, I was lucky too, the lottery in '69 remember? My number was 327 like the short block Chevy engine, one of my favorites, so what?

"waive their little pinkie in the air"
comment was too much for me to remain quiet. That "badge" of loyalty is just phony baloney to me. I lost 6 close friends in Vietnam, guys I grew up with some going back to grade school. Not to mention the one's that were irreparably damaged from their service and the crap that they faced from the "left" anti-war protesters of that era, many of the SAME folks that are "conservatives" today. It's funny how personal economic conditions can assuage political positions over time. It ISN'T political, it's real people that are suffering and the politicians are just bought and sold by special interests. Anyone that can't or don't recognize or get caught up in the "false" narrative that many of these folks brought it on themselves OR that each man is an island to himself "what you reap, and so shall you sow" is, well I wish them well and hope they never have to go through what folks that have truly suffered have and do.
