This is a rather stupid arguement. Over half the population supported the war when it started, should they all have enlisted.

Let me check my calendar.....nope all full. College or Military I picked college.

Thank God that no National Guard members had full schedules like you do. Or kids. Or jobs. Or mortages. Or parents in the hospital. Or actual lives.

Think of how inconvenient it would've been for you chickenhawks if they had access to the same excuses you do.

My cousin signed up. Not only did he give up college to sign up, he VOLUNTEERED to drive around the Iraqi Governing Council because he wanted them to build a better country.

Of all the poeple in Iraq, he was probably the most likely to die.

However, that doesn't mean the majority of citizens in this country need to go sign up. If every single war supporter signed up then there would be more enlisted people then tax-payers funding them. It's a stupid stupid arguement.

If there's a draft and people dodge it that's one thing. But there is no such draft.

I think there are quite a few National Guard members who would would consider that purely a matter of semantics.

Hooks, if the Republican Party told you not to see your nose in front of your face, you'd swear up and down that it wasn't there anymore. And you might even mean it.
