Men Who Died in Vietnam While Bush and Cheney Avoided Combat Like Cowards

Right now, hundreds of American soldiers are dying and being wounded in a war that was sold to Americans on a shifting desert sand of lies. Most of the men who are responsible for sending our brave young men off to die were themselves cowards (Chickenhawks) who supported the Vietnam War, but sent other young men to die in their places.

The top two Chickenhawks, George W. Bush and Dick Cheney, had different excuses to explain the yellow streaks down their backs. Dick Cheney said he was too busy to go to Vietnam. George W. Bush said he was too busy patrolling the skies of Texas. The reality is that both of them spent most of the Vietnam War boozing themselves up (and in George W's case indulging in some white candy on the side).

In memory of the young men in Vietnam who died in combat so that George and Dick could save their hides and guzzle down the booze, we are posting this BuzzFlash editorial.

Here are the young men from Midland, Texas, (Bush's hometown) who died in Vietnam in place of George W. Bush, as he stayed in Texas afraid to go to war:

1. This is something every American should know about.

Why aren't the Democrats exposing this about our wartime resident fraud and vp of fraud?

2. whats wrong with avoiding vietnam?

I don't understand. I thought we were opposed to the war in Vietnam.

3. Bush's problem is hypocrisy

Kerry went to Vietnam, got his ass shot off three times, came back and opposed the war.

Most liberals opposed the war and figured out some way to keep from going.

Bush, Cheney and the rest of the chickenhawk brigade supported the war but figured out how to stay away from it anyway.

Then they send young guys to die for no reason at all.

4. No problem avoiding Vietnam if you stood up like a man and refused

These two Chickenhawks were not against the war. They were just against going to war themselves. Sent some someone else to die in their place. Kind of like what they are doing in Iraq right now.
