Question for the Con side

The past month has shown that it is exceedingly difficult to say with certainty which of the conflicting records and witnesses is telling the truth after the passage of 30 years. Shouldn't we be taking steps to assure that there are no social climbers and other opportunists who volunteered for Iraq and received superficial wounds there merely to build a future political career --- in either party? Does it concern no one that we haven't been shown how the American military has acted to ensure there are no more John Kerrys? Maybe if we could say Yale no longer has NROTC, we could proudly say to the people of 2034 that we did our best.

True realism consists in revealing the surprising things which habit keeps covered and prevents us from seeing.
