"Jenna? Barbara? Your war is waiting"

From Salon.com article today (paid registration required)


If someone would make these into bumperstickers, I would buy them! Two more from the article:

"Support the war? Then volunteer to fight in it."

Who should fight in the war you wanted, your kids or ours?

Context:

"It's been rumbling around the blogosphere for months now, getting stronger with each new report about the military's inability to find the warm bodies it needs to keep fighting in Iraq. We all piled on the National Review's fighting-age Jonah Goldberg for supporting the war but just not enough to enlist, and Daily Kos' Markos Moulitsas Zuniga -- a veteran himself -- has been both leading and chronicling efforts to shame Republicans into joining up. But as Moulitsas noted yesterday, the movement crossed a threshold of some sort this week when Scott McClellan was asked at a White House press briefing whether any members of the Bush family are currently serving in the Armed Forces.

If the 50.74 percent of Americans who voted for Bush in 2004 -- or even the 39 percent who say they favor the war today -- would all march a kid or two down to the local recruiting station, the military's personnel problems would disappear faster than you can slap a yellow ribbon on the back of the family car.

This is the drumbeat that needs to get out there.

2. Oh.....it's all coming together now...

THIS is why they are trying to limit the role of women in combat. It's because of B&J.

3. What ARE the twins doing with their lives?

Haven't seen ANY news about them since the inauguration parties/designer dress extravaganza. The last story was that they were going to rent a house in Georgetown. I'm not saying the press should be hounding them the way they did Chelsea (publishing paparazzi photos of her with her boyfriend), but is it too much to expect to know what city they reside in and whether or not they are working, going to grad school, etc. I suspect that they are following in daddy's footsteps and are getting big fat paychecks for showing up occasionally at an office, or "serving" on boards of directors - probably with some big fatcat lobbying firm in DC.

All this in contrast to the campaign when Jenna was going to teach underprivileged kids in inner city DC, and Barbar was going to work with child AIDS victims in Africa! Hah!
