You can try and twist and spin your words anyway you want Mr. King but what you in effect said was that if you are illiterate you can join the U.S. Armed forces, a completely unsupportable contention BTW, thereby conveying the message that the courageous young men and women in our military are only there because they are to stupid to get a "real" job.

Yet another Liberal Elitist with "delusions of relevance".
