The Biden campaign thinks it can score political points by bringing up the President's bone spur medical deferment. I was having coffee at the Freehold Senior Center yesterday when a feisty lady I know brought me an envelope she had received in the mail. On the front of the envelope above her name was a sentence supposedly written by some political hack, "Major General (Ret.) Paul Eaton."

The sentence read, "My father took Donald Trump's place in Vietnam and was killed in action. That's why I'm sending you this letter." I don't know what his phony letter said but it no doubt missed the point about our President and his medical deferment.

Our President is too smart and too valuable to be put in harm's way. He has said getting drafted is for those who cannot avoid it. He had bone spurs. It doesn't matter whether the bone spurs were serious enough to get a medical deferment or not. The dangerous military is no place for the leader of the free world.

I explained this to the lady. I think she is too far along in age to understand the requirements for great leaders in our modern times.
