Muhammad Ali was no ‘draft dodger’

The issue is that the Chickenhawks are perfectly willing to send other people off to die but when they had the chance they would rather have been somewhere else.

Yeah, and what else is new? We had that discussion back in 2003 over at fearbush, when all the draft dodgers sent others to their doom. As Yeauxleaux said. They will always find a way to wiggle out. If I'm not mistaken the system of wiggling out for rich people has even been institutionalised at some point. Hasn't there been a system of paying for another one - a poor one, of course - to take one's place?
