A man was walking on the beach saw that it was littered with thousands of starfish. A little boy was picking up the starfish one by one and throwing them into the ocean. He asked the boy, "What are you doing?" The boy replied, "I'm throwing starfish back into the water. If I leave them here they'll dry up and die." The man said, "But look how many starfish there are. What you're doing can't possibly make a difference." As the boy picked up another starfish and threw it into the ocean he said, "Well, it makes a difference to this one!"

Answer 1

Good question. If they all voted, then maybe they would have John Kerry to complain about now.

Answer 2

I have heard that saying before!

Who says we aren't doing anything. Even our Legislature is drafting a resolution to Impeach Bush!

Right now, if Bush had it to do again, he would! He needs to go!

I think the country is tired of body bags coming in every day.

You don't hear much about the wounded returning to a Veterans Administration that has been cut in 2006, and had only an inflation raise all the rest of Bush years. You have to remember that we have been in Iraq with wounded (18,356) coming home for 3 1/4 years and currently have 2,727 come home in body bags, another today, 2 yesterday!.

Even the Republicans should be mad as hell about that, but they support the war and the troops, until they have to put their mangled bodies back together! Haven't heard a peep from one of them Bush lovers!!! I bet NOT ONE has done a thing, or called anyone, about it!!! But they support the war and our troops!

Yea, right!!

Answer 3

Because they believe that recruitment is a necessary evil. They believe recruitment is good when it comes to defending the constitution or our liberties. In that case its not bad, its what needs to be done.
The sad part is when we recruit people to go to war against a country because they may or may not have weapons of mass destruction. Or maybe in this case so Dick Cheney and his Haliburton company can take over the Iraqi oil wells for themselves.
The bottom line to the anti-recruitment people is this. When the Japs attacked Pearl Harbor recruitment was necessary and understandable. When nutcase Bush wanted to attack a country that never attacked the U.S so his oil buddies can make there millions, than recruitment should never be acceptable.

Answer 4

I think it goes along with the cut of the head and the body will die philosophy.

Answer 5

Your heart is in the right place.
Fight the good fight.

Answer 6

to save one life, I suppose makes it worthwhile
