Just wanted to pass this along in case anyone wanted to enlist.

I'm gonna go out on a limb here and guess that the right-leaning hawks who blindly support Bush and his criminal war on this board are a tad too chickenshit to actually put their money where their mouth is.

Prove me wrong, tough guys!

SLK: Unsurprising bullsh-t answer. A complete cop-out deflection. You do support Bush and his war, right? Please explain why you wouldn't put your life on the line for something you are so certain is right. You're not a coward, are you? If not there must be another explanation. I mean, you come on MOL day in and day out and strongly support this administration and Bush's actions. Please explain what's stopping you.

Kids and a wife and 50% hearing lost in each ear that kept me out of the military twice before when I tried to enlist.

You?

Well, I think they'll take you now if you tried. Have you tried? You didn't even try again, did you? The standards are pretty low for enlistees. Besides, there are other ways to serve your country over there. Have you explored those options?

Kids and a wife? That's no answer. The terrorists are invading. We have to fight them there so we don't have to fight them here. If you're over there fighting, surely your kids and wife are safer here. Sorry, not a legit reason.

So, really, what is it SLK? You must not support Bush and his war then...

Slick, try again. I think the military is getting to the point where they will take you if you can see lightning and hear thunder. You can hear thunder, can;t you? :-)
