That is wrong on so many levels.
Al Franken actually puts himself in harms way to do USO tours to entertain the troops but he is blocked?
bill o'reilly and rush limbaugh (they don't deserve capitalization) have never served in the army. o'reilly tried to act as though he was when in fact he was a journalist, and limbaugh got a deferment for a "football" injury. This country does not represent what it is supposed to at all.
