Bush, Iraq and Vietnam

As you may have guessed by reading any of my posts I am not a support of the current USA Government and do not like George W Bush's policies.

I think the thing that I find the most defining about his character is that he avoided serving in the Vietnam war and he keeps this quite - he may have landed a fighter plane (forcing the whole US Battle group of ships to move around so he could land it!) on an Aircraft carrier (USS Abraham Lincoln I believe see: http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/americas/2994345.stm) to signify what he thought was the end of the war in Iraq - how badly was he wrong!

I do think this line signifies the whole George W Bush Vietnam story is this: "Mr Bush avoided being drafted to serve in Vietnam. " which is the last line of the BBC's diplomatic correspondent Barnaby Mason article titled "Is Iraq another Vietnam?" see: http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/asia-pacific/3608473.stm
