Our troops are listening to a Leader who was so scared he got 5 deferments rather then serve the USA when needed. As a Mother of a Military soldier what the Captains call Bush/Cheney should never be repeated to decent people. If you think Cheney's language is bad the soldiers are worse. They know they were lied to by the drunk drug wacko Liar-in-Chief. While visiting the base behind closed doors all the talk was about who they would vote for President. Hillary or Obama and for some reason they laughed when I said McCain was a candidate. Soldier Cheney would know all about War and the Military.
