INSTEAD of in boot camp?

If you are 18-30 and in favor of this silly war, why not go sign up?

Or is the war a good idea as long as your *** isnt in danger?

smapple, you dont play in the MLB because you lack the ability.

HOWEVER, ability is not needed to join the us military.

They will happily train you. If you need more help finding a recruiter in your area, send me a pm, we will get you in a uniform asap.

ROBOT HOOKER: Does that self justification help you sleep at night?

I dunno how many locales are having manpower problems with cops and firefighters, i know they are doing layoffs in my area..

BUT i know how bad we are hurting on troop numbers, so once you stop blathering, please report to your locale recruiter and sign up. Stop talking and start fighting.

And no i dont support the fighting, so fighting for the terrorists is equally inane.

Because they're "soldiers" of the 101st Armchair Brigade.

They are scared of signing up for a war they support--in face of eroding public support--so all they can do is sit back and insult anyone who is against Bush and the war.

It's a much better and safer profession, than putting your life on the line for a war you're all gungho for!

Your "chickenhawk" argument is false. Using the same logic, the only people who can be against murder and rape (and for law enforcement) can be police officers, and the only people who can have an opinion on fires are firefighters. And you can't speak out against slavery if you've never owned a slave or been one yourself.

Saying you support Bush and/or the global war on terror does not generate an obligation to fight in the war. That would be like me saying that since you obviously oppose Bush and/or the global war on terror, why aren't you in Iraq fighting alongside the terrorists?

This is just the weak-minded liberals' latest version of ad hominem attacks, just like when they used to cry that anyone who disagreed with them was racist/sexist/homophobic.

For a group that claims to be open-minded, why is the left so intolerant of differing opinions?

As JFK once said , "Let every nation know , whether it wishes us well or ill , we shall pay any price , bear any burden , meet any hardship , support any friend , oppose any foe , in order to assure the survival and success of liberty . This we pledge and more". Tell that to Teddy Kennedy , will you ?

I like baseball, but I don't play baseball in major league. Big deal. I don't like the war, but you can't expect people to suck up to your position on everything. What are you doing to stop the war if you don't like it? Rambling on internet. LIKE ME.

How do you know I'm not Derek Jeter? May be I'm Berry Bonds. Who knows.

Plus, ability do matter for Army. Is not a dumping ground for society's rejects. At least I don't dis the Army when I'm not joining.

i agree with thee oh shakin spear ,
let the war talkers become war worriers ,
funny [sad ] how seeing your besy buddies guts hanging out makes us want peace ,
having seen it no sane person would seek it any more
that wise diplomicy can prevent it ,is more
than cheap talk that promotes it
join up or shut up
im with you
till you been there it seems so romantic
then you stand on a land mine
blow off your leg and get abused by the civilian [out sourced /privatised ] medical abuse system.

It's fun bantering with communists, defeatists, and those with low self esteem.
