all these chest beaters have an obligation to enlist NOW!
Edited on Sun Nov-21-04 12:33 PM by AmerDem
Everyone of these fascist freepers have an obligation to enlist now to serve in Iraq. McCain was out this Sunday repeating over and over again how he feels we need between 50,000 and 80,000 additional troops for the on going Iraq war. These fascist freepers have an obligation to step up to the plate and enlist immediately. No waiting they need to do it now.

This message has to be pounded repeatedly to put the focus on all of these cowardly bastards and at the same time allow all those current soldiers who have already served and forced to serve way longer then they agreed to come home as soon as possible.

Tough Boots to Fill
Army recruiters take orders to boost the ranks personally.

By J.R. Moehringer, Times Staff Writer

The number seems to hang above their heads like the banners on the walls. It's a big number, and they grimace when it's mentioned, because it's more than a number. It's an order. By the end of the month, the seven soldiers who staff this U.S. Army recruiting station must put 14 new men or women in boots.

"This job will kill you," one recruiter says under his breath. "This is the most stressful job I have ever had."

Because of the number, Adams has barely seen his kids all month, and Hubbard is sick. Hill is here on his day off, and Shivers is going in four directions at once. The number, the number. As much as the recruiters like each other, they hate that number, because it's more than an order. It's their mission, their burden and, in a funny way, it's a source and a symbol of their pride.

From outside, the recruiting station doesn't look all that dramatic. The little door with the white star doesn't stand out from any of the other doors in this sleepy strip mall 14 miles north of Denver. Just another storefront, another business trawling for customers, like the honey-baked ham shop and the martial arts school.

1. With so many millions of them we shouldn't need a draft.
Even if we do unto Iran what we would have them do unto us.
