The memory of Vietnam might have been summoned more readily. I dunno, either, though.

Vietnam put us off of crusading for a while.. Then, we went right back to it like Vietnam never happened.

I think the draft is really what put people off about it. They may not have known much about the motivations behind the war.. But they sure as hell knew that Rush Limbaugh, George Bush, Dick Cheney, Bill Clinton, etc, etc.. Weren't there fighting it alongside them.

That WAS TOTAL BULLSHIT.. and I don't blame them in the least bit for being pissed about it.
