Geez, Hank, that's gotta hurt.
Actually, I don't think this one qualifies as a wedge issue. I did a (very) quick Westlaw search and found no evidence that this law or its predecessor has ever been challenged.
That may mean that, until this week on a chat board populated by bored, overpaid lawyers raised in a society grown soft and self-centered, no one ever felt the need to defend the rights of those who would falsely claim entitlement to wear our nation's highest military honors.

(So, I guess I'm in category 2 -- spewing my judgments.)
