Being a peace activist is now bad, voting for an illegal war? acceptable.

How many people died because Bernie filed as a CO during Vietnam? How many died in Iraq?

1. Must be Monday afternoon, and the smears continue, and the unnecessary derision

and divisiveness continues Personally I think we have two great candidates, hell 4 if you include Martin and Joe.

2. What difference does it make?

Many good men, including my husband, served when their country called them to do so. Bernie didn't. I don't hold that against him any more than I did Bill Clinton. Some Veterans will, however. And they called Bill Clinton a draft dodger.

Yep and he was.  Good point.

13. Peace activists thinks legal wars are okay. Do you know how Hillary and Bernie voted on AUMF,

Authorization of Military Force, they both voted yes. You may not know the details of IWR but this bill set guide lines for Bush to follow, to have the inspectors complete the inspection for WMD's. Bush pulled the inspectors out before the inspection. So before the peace activists declare a war illegal the facts needs to be Bush rushed to war and did not follow the guidelines set forth in the IWR.

Would it have been classified as an illegal war if WMD's would have been discovered?

Next question, are the peace activists for the invasion into Afghanistan? Well, the voting record should be checked on this one also.

Next question:  Barney, what is it like to live with the knowledge that someone else may have died in Viet Nam in your place because you shirked your duty?  Gee, it could have been a poor Black or Hispanic.   :fuelfire:

It makes a LOT of difference if he aspires to be the CinC of the U.S. Military.

Some Veterans will, however.

Millions of us will have an issue with it.

That's because he IS one.

Then-Chief Justice John Marshall observed, “Between a balanced republic and a democracy, the difference is like that between order and chaos.”

John Adams warned in a letter, “Remember democracy never lasts long. It soon wastes, exhausts, and murders itself. There never was a democracy yet, that did not commit suicide.”

So...

The DUmmies believe Bush failed to follow the will of Congress, so his actions as Commander in Chief were 'illegal'; while simultaneously believing Obama's unilateral actions, including material support for our battlefield enemies, are 'legal'.

Another shining example of primitive cognitive dissonance.

Another example of why DUches should be no where near the chain of command of the military.  Weapons-grade stupidity of that nature in the civilian leadership of our country would be devastating to the USA.

I was wondering how long it would take for the libs/DUmmies to start parroting their hero Hitlary on that quote.
It would make a nice bumper sticker too.
Now that the hopey changey isn't working out too well for libs.
