REMEMBER when it came out years ago that Dick Cheney said he didn't serve in Vietnam because he had better things to do? And when it came out how Bill Clinton equivocated over his draft status while at Oxford (but was at least honest enough to write his draft board about it)?

Larry Pressler, a Republican and former U.S. senator, offers an informed dissertation on that kind of thinking — and the consequences of it we experience today. It's an essay very much worth reading.
