    My biggest regret is not being able to serve. I think I missed something important.

    Why would anyone voluntarily serve? A lot of Americans are smart to what the score is in regards to our foreign policy.

    What? I seem to recall you've already said you served.

    Some veterans are totally messed up because they served. Is that important to you -- that somebody gets permanently messed up and negatively impacted for good?

    Not sanctioned under the Constitution in my lifetime, just highly desirable in the view of Wall Street.

    No, I never said I did. I am deaf in one ear, partially deaf in the other and legally blind in one eye. The military has these damn rules .

    Don't put words in my mouth. I said I regret I never served.

    Why not? You seem to have a lot of room.

    Otherwise, WTF are you talking about? You mean in combat, or what?
