Who Served?

Via Atrios, we find this article listing prominent politicians and their military service. It compares the Democratic and Republican tickets, and those in the Bush Administration with those in the Clinton Administration (since Kerry doesn't have an Administration yet and that was the last Democratic administration.)

In addition, the author picks somes journalists, pundits and bloggers to compare. It's striking how few of them served. Until you see how many were of Vietnam age. Can't say I blame them.

Update: Markos of Daily Kos (who served in Gulf War I) has some astute analysis.
