You boys are on your own (Chickenhawks won't enlist)

<snip>

We have a volunteer army with fewer and fewer volunteers, and people reenlisting only to save their friends. There is a time limit to their ability to be in combat. They cannot serve forever. They will have to be replaced. And fewer and fewer are willing to replace them,

What I want people to do is be honest.

If you will not serve in Iraq, and no one you know will serve, stop expecting someone else to do what you will not.

Therefore, it is time to stop calling for more troops, or the US to make Iraq safe. We cannot do this and even Americans are refusing to join the fight. It is time to look at your actions and realize, that despite your ideals, you oppose continuing this war. In practical terms, you have decided that this war is not worth your life or anyone you know. And million of Americans have joined you in this decision.

So, with this fact evident, it is time to call for US troops to withdraw from Iraq. Not save it, not add more boots on the ground. You have already voted by your actions. It is time that you match it with your words.

3. This is what gets me

The neocon chickenhawks always say that they would be proud to serve if they were asked. Well, guess what? Your government HAS been asking and asking for months, as they have been redoubling their recruiting efforts while enlistments drop. Uncle Sam IS asking, now enlist!

4. I hear the national college repukes are holding their convention

this weekend, I believe. There should be all 1,200 recruiters attending this event. Get every last one of the little bastards. Then on to bob jones u...

On edit: Oh, and make sure they get that little fuck that kicked the lady while she was down and then tried to deny it, ALL ON VIDEO. Send his angry, conservative little ass over to Iraq.

5. This is about the best argument as to why the repubs and the clowns

on websites like you-know-what should shut their mouths. This gut put it plainly and simply. Should be sent to every bush** supporting asshole in the House and Senate.
