Pretty sure I heard it at a tent rival on the shores of Clearwater lake, near Creedence, Alabama.

Trust me this is a bad idea. If he were ever to serve, it would be in the same manner that George W. "served" in the Texas Air National Guard. That is to say barely, and with notable gaps in documented proof of service. Won't stop him from calling himself a veteran when he inevitably runs for President, predictably stealing themes from JFK's campaigns.

“The president served stateside in the Air National Guard during Vietnam. Democrats have accused him of shirking his Guard service and getting favored treatment as the son of a prominent Washington figure.

The AP talked to experts unaffiliated with either campaign who have reviewed Mr. Bush's files for missing documents. They said it was not unusual for guard commanders to ignore deficiencies by junior officers such as Mr. Bush. But they said missing a physical exam, which caused him to be grounded, was not common.“

Draft him in to the "meat shield" division, make him carry the largest flag available and have a lit flare at all times.
