from Diederik
~Last week on C-Span Chalmers Johnson said while comparing America's professional military now to the draftees used in previous wars that only one Yale graduate was killed during the Viet Nam War.
And the Yallies still wonder how that ever happened, why he didn't go for his doctorate and get extensions until the war was over?
(It took me a few minutes to remember the buzz-word 'tipping point'. 20 million?)
