Draft-dodging boxer doesn’t deserve award
I think President Bush awarding the Presidential Medal of Freedom to Muhammad Ali is a slap in the face of all veterans. Ali is one of the most notorious draft dodgers of all time [that should be: “THE greatest of ALL TIME, Cosell!”] . When duty called, Ali turned his back on his country.
It is particularly galling at a time when American troops are being sent to Iraq to die for their country. What’s next, Mr. President? Are you going to award medals to war protesters?
Isn’t it ironic that they wouldn’t have the right to protest if veterans hadn’t fought for it?
Service, not revolt, should be rewarded. Bush should apologize to all of us who proudly served.

* * * * * * Opinion survey –
circle A (“Agree”) or D (“Disagree”) for each statement below.
A - D - Tony can spell “irony” but he can’t smell “irony.”
A - D - Tony’s ire has nothing to do with Ali’s being black or Muslim.
A - D - Bush “served” honorably (& got his teeth fixed in the process); Ali “dodged”
A - D - Bush should NOT apologize to veterans for honoring Ali since it wasn’t even his idea. He gave the award at the suggestion of Kkkarl Rove, and solely for political reasons (i.e. to “chum” African Americans). Respect the office!! Damn-it!!
A - D - Tony’s comment that “American troops are being sent to Iraq to die for their country” is particularly apt.
A - D - If veterans who “served to protect our rights,” are against honoring protesters who exercise those rights, they must have served to protect SOME of our rights.
A - D - The veterans of the Revolutionary War fought to establish the right of women, propertyless white men, and slaves to vote.
A - D - Veterans of the War of 1812 fought to protect our rights against England, where no one is allowed to vote.
A - D - Veterans of Little Big Horn fought and died (all of them) to protect our right to abrogate any treaty – even if the ink is not yet dry - if gold is discovered on a reservation.
A - D - Veterans of the Confederate army served to protect our right to own people whom we can force to pick cotton (their failed effort lead to today’s need for ever more illegal aliens whom we can force to pick cucumbers).
A - D - The Mexican American war veterans fought to ensure that ignorant white people could inhabit and run that part of Mexico now known as Texas.
A - D - Veterans of the Spanish American War protected the freedom of the presses - Hearst’s and Pullitzer’s presses.
A - D - Veterans of the Philippine-American war protected our right to vote absentee from as far away as the middle of the Pacific Ocean.
A - D - World War I was a gas!!
A - D - WW I veterans fought to make the world safe for democracy.
A - D - Because WW I vets fought to protect our right to protest, no one (not even Eugene V. Debs) was persecuted for opposing the war.
A - D - Say what you want about Hitler and WW II, but good Nazis didn’t “turn their backs on their country.”
A - D - The Korean War doesn’t count. It was a “Police Action”fought to keep godless Koreans from invading us via Mexico.
A - D - In Vietnam, American soldiers fought and 58,226 died (153,303 wounded) to keep godless Vietnamese from invading us via Mexico to play "dominoes" and take jobs “Americans don’t want.”
A - D - In Panama and Granada, veterans fought to preserve our right to honor Teddy Roosevelt on Mt. Rushmore (until we can replace him with the Gipper).
A - D - In Iraq I & II, veterans fought because they know, as Calvin Coolidge said, “What’s good for Halliburton is good for America! "
A - D - Had the armed forces only known that at a recent anti-war protest in Miami out-of-control police were beating, gassing, and firing upon peaceful, middle-class, middle-aged, unionized, protesters (who had a permit from the city); they would have arrested the police to – as is their tradition – protect our right to protest.
