26. Yes, drop it.
By even making this an issue, you are insulting every single person who did the right thing by going to Canada or Sweden during the Vietnam War. By saying that Bush was wrong, you are also saying that the others, many of whom were following their consciences, were also wrong. You are using a reactionary issue of the right wing to attack Bush with.

Bush is a sleazebag, warmonger, and a right-wing extremist, and surely there's plenty of stuff to criticize him for without bringing up the one thing that would make me *more* likely to vote for him. (Don't worry, it'll never happen.)
