According to the numbnuts at the Times,
Dr. Dean got the medical deferment, but in a recent interview he said he probably could have served had he not mentioned the condition.
"I guess that's probably true," he said. "I mean, I was in no hurry to get into the military."
But now that he is running for president, in a race when many Democrats believe they need a candidate with strong national security credentials to challenge President Bush, the choices Dr. Dean, a former Vermont governor, made 33 years ago are providing ammunition for critics.
Isn't it amazing how fast they got onto that idea, while barely bothering to float past the Bush AWOL?
They also have a spike at Kucinich while giving a friendly pat to Clark and Kerry. Apart from the careful scrutiny of the Dems beside the total whitewash of aWol, the tone is just plain smarmy. I await their investigative journalism on one or two other topics as well.
