Muhammad Ali was no ‘draft dodger’

[Minimalist]

— but these five famous political figures were

Drumpf, Cheney, Gingrich, Clinton but, best of all:

Rush Limbaugh


OK, so this last one might be a little unfair to Rush, but his reason for being disqualified from the draft is too funny to leave out. The infamous talk-radio barker received a student deferment in his first year of college before he decided to drop out. In theory, this should have made him eligible for the draft, but he was soon disqualified except in cases of a national emergency.

Why, you ask? Because he apparently had a problem with anal cysts that prevented him from being an effective soldier. While this may indeed be a legitimate reason for not serving in Vietnam, it’s hard to imagine Rush would grant any Democrat the benefit of the doubt if they claimed they weren’t qualified for the draft because they had defective asses.
