A co-worker came to work today wearing desert BDU pants...
...I told her that it was a mighty bold statement considering what this country is up to. I then asked her if her son, who recently turned 18 had enlisted yet. She said "yes, he has to doesn't he?" I told her not for the draft but for the army. She only gave me a dirty look and we both went on about our business. What gives this story a point is that before the election she told me she was definitely voting for shrub because she felt that that was what God wanted her to do. I will leave all further comments on this interaction to you.

1. God wanted her to ?
Not too long ago, people that thought God told them what to do, were considered mentally ill. Especially if God wanted them to kill.

2. Well, using their model of "God"
God told me to hate this woman. That's all these idiots understand. Hate and violence. Get some enlistment forms and leave them on her desk. Get a big stack so you can leave one every day.

4. Someone that stupid shouldn't have been allowed to reproduce!
I mean, if she doesn't know the difference between signing up for the draft and enlisting - - - - I can only vaguely imagine what a poor job she's done as a parent. Is she that brain dead re her job responsibilities?

8. Her kid's only 18. They should BOTH enlist.
Sounds like she's still young enough.

Lynndie England deserves more respect than the likes of her. At least she WENT.
