You're blaming him for the business executives who wouldn't hire vets and the chicks who wouldn't lay you. News flash, kid: folks were against the war long before the VVAW came along. Huge areas of the media supported the war for years, and put the demonstrators in the worst light possible (go to a good university library, dummy, and dig through the microfilmed newspapers and the archived magazines.) But don't ask "Buzz" O'Reilly about the truth. He was in college IN ENGLAND, down the road from the oh-so-hated Bill Clinton, on his own deferment. And when he came home he got another deferment, to teach high school. Damned few hippys ran the employment desk at any business. It wasn't the hippy chicks who kept their legs crossed. A lot of hippys weren't old enough to vote. But it WAS a lot of middle-aged married couples who objected to having their boys come home in boxes, or in pieces, for no good reason. And you can't retrofit that war with a good reason. We heard none at the time. Or maybe you can pop into your Time Machine and explain it to folks back then? Lou P. Garrew, at your service!
