This isn't going to help your run, Tom!
Looks like the Bush Crime Syndicate Rove'd ya!
Tom Tancredo is a Big War Advocate But Was a Vietnam War Draft Dodger Due to Claims of Depression
"He's a flame throwing supporter of the Iraq War and demagogic opponent of "illegal" immigration (as in Mexican immigration, not white people immigration). As a college student, he also was a rabid enthusiast for our war in Vietnam.
But Tom Tancredo, the congressman who invites guests over to his Colorado mansion to watch John Wayne movies, was given a 1-Y deferment from serving in Vietnam. Why? Because he claims that he was treated for mental illness while in high school.
Like Cheney who got multiple deferments that kept him from serving in Vietnam, like Bush who used Daddy's help to get him in the cushy Texas Air National Guard to avoid combat, Tancredo got himself out of the army during a war he supported by declaring that he was mentally ill.
And who is Tancredo's campaign manager in his volatile, narcissistic campaign for president? According to a Scripps Howard News Service article.
The woman behind Tancredo's flirtation with the 2008 presidential race is Bay Buchanan, treasurer of Ronald Reagan's presidential campaigns and the sister behind conservative commentator Pat Buchanan's presidential runs."
Ooooooops!!!!!
