In fact, I had 4 years of ROTC training and would have gone to Vietnam if I did not perceive that war as the worst inanity, falling for a KGB trap of sucking America into a land war in Asia.
I'm curious: what did you do to fulfil your obligation? (I'm assuming that you meant you had four years of college-level ROTC, and if the requirements were the same as they were when I got my commission through the AFROTC program, taking the last two years of ROTC obligated one to serve in some capacity: in fact, if one dropped out or flunked out after starting those last two years, one was technically obligated to serve as an enlisted person.)
Oh... and IF ONLY McCain had been the nominee in 00. But fundamentally this isn't about conservatism.
I agree. "Conservative" .NE. "Republican." One can be "conservative" without being a member of the Republican party or always voting for Republican candidates.
