Duty and country first...except when it came to actually serving our country in the military. He had "other priorities."
"When Cheney became eligible for the draft, during the Vietnam War, he applied for and received five draft deferments.[14][15] In 1989, The Washington Post writer George C. Wilson interviewed Cheney as the next Secretary of Defense; when asked about his deferments, Cheney reportedly said, "I had other priorities in the '60s than military service."[16] Cheney testified during his confirmation hearings in 1989 that he received deferments to finish a college career that lasted six years rather than four, owing to sub par academic performance and the need to work to pay for his education. Initially, he was not called up because the Selective Service System was only taking older men. When he became eligible for the draft, he applied for four deferments in sequence. He applied for his fifth exemption on January 19, 1966, when his wife was about 10 weeks pregnant. He was granted 3-A status, the "hardship" exemption, which excluded men with children or dependent parents."
Amazing that a man who "had other priorities than military service," has no problem sending other men to die in a war...
This guy is a neocon through and through, and has been tied to the Bushies since 1969 when he served as an assistant to Donald Rumsfeld. Some of the tactics he's used or suggested over the years tells me the man is anything but "honorable."
BTW, this thread definitely belongs in P&N.
