Fucking Disgusting Lying GOP Hypocrites, Chapter 13559

Thanks to Skippy for this one:

New York Governor George Pataki (R-Shitweasel) gave a speech at the Nuremburg Rally -- I mean the GOP Convention -- last year wherein he stated, among other things, "with supreme guts and righteousness, President Bush went into Iraq".

Now, almost a year later, Georgie's little boy, Teddy, freshly-minted Yale graduate with an ROTC commission as a 2nd lieutenant in the Marine Corps has, with "supreme guts and righteousness", applied for a THREE YEAR deferment so he can go to law school.

For the record, the elder Pataki, of prime age to have served in Vietnam, was given a medical deferment due to "poor eyesight". (The fucker must be absolutely blind and walking around with a white cane and a guide dog, since I was given NO draft deferment, despite the fact that I am LEGALLY BLIND in one eye.)

Of course the hypocritical motherfucker says that he hopes his son is given the deferment.

I do believe that. I also believe that the fathers and mothers of the 1750 dead Americans wanted their sons and daughters to get deferments, too.

Why isn't the war effort important enough for the sons and daughters of the wealthy and the influential to do their part? Why is it ALWAYS the sons and daughters of the poor and the working class in this country who have to make the ultimate sacrifice so that the ruling oligarchy can maintain its profit margins?

When are the rest of us going to wake the fuck up?

Here's the complete post on Skippy, along with, appropriately, the lyrics to "Fortunate Son", and here is the complete story on the New York Press website.
