I am trying to minimize politics in my LJ, but I just thought that if anybody cares (nobody does), I think Kerry did in fact mean to talk about Bush in the recent infamous episode. He was simply clumsy, which is quite in his character.
And now he says he botched the joke. Well, in the last several years he has botched pretty much everything, so why not the joke? Notice that he still (as of now) refuses to apologize, which is a reasonable and human thing to do — especially if he did not mean it.
Disclosure: Kerry is one of my least respected politicians.
Update. Kerry apologized.

Собственно, я бы это понял так:
- Не будете хорошо учиться - не получите приличного ( или вообще никакого) диплома;
- Не будет диплома - не будет хорошей работы;
- Не будет работы - возможно, как выход из положения, завербуетесь в армию;
- А там уже вас не будут спрашивать: пошлют воевать когда командование решит.
А вообще-то это близко к "не будешь учиться - пойдешь в дворники"
