"Mr. President: Bring Home the Southern Guardsmen Tonight"
by Trey Ellis
"Dear Mr. President: I'm a lifelong Democrat and you're a Republican on the ropes, but for the good of the country I will give you a little advice. If you do not want to see your already shrinking Presidency disintegrate into political nothingness, you will get every National Guardsman from Louisiana, Mississippi and Alabama on the first thing smoking out of Baghdad. They joined the Guard with this very sort of catastrophe in mind, not to dodge IEDs in some far-off desert.

The righteous white Southerner is all that is left of your base and if you do not bring their boys home on the double I promise you they will join our side, oppose this reckless war, and oppose you."

If only he hadn't sent them in the first place, huh.

1. kicking shamelessly - someone needs to ask him if he'll do this
he needs to. Those people want to come home and help their communities.

4. They said on the radio
That they are not allowing soldiers in Iraq time to come home and check on their families. Heartless, b*tards.

just now regarding NO.

And force asshole in chief out of the way.

No way in hell should the guard forces still be in Iraq, bring at least 60% home.
