That won't go over well in Hollywood.
Pretty big talk from a Hollywood multi-millionaire. Plenty of American families have sacrificed ALL THEY HAD since 9.11.
no thanks, we dont need a draft.
No, I think he has a point.
It's important for society to participate in our wars - at home and the military. During WWII we had bond drives and ration cards, victory gardens, etc..
I think these are very very important, regardless of their actual value to the war effort.
I think it's a mistake to not include things like this in the WOT.
Wow... I knew "Paulie Walnuts" (his real name escapes me) supported Dubya, but I thought I had read that Gandolfini was a 'RAT. I know for sure Edie Falco is a 'RAT, unfortunately...

You got a problem with that? :^)
the percentage of national and international resources does not compare with WWII yet.
Aren't you being kind of harsh? I like this quote from him. Finally someone - from Hollywood - is injecting a little personal responsibility into the equation. Advocating superior force to achieve the objective vs whining about 'shameful' US troop activities - Abu Ghraib, collateral deaths, etc - its refreshing to me!
Send 500,000 goodfellas over there - Bada-Bing!

If you click on THIS LINK, you will find jobs being offered in Iraq, by KBR (a subsidiary of Halliburton).
Upon first inspection, I don't see "truck driver", but I do see "bus driver". There are many jobs of varying qualification levels. As I myself am mulling over what I can do to help, I occasionally check this site.
Perhaps I will see you over there. If you bring NYC bagels, I'll bring some California wine. Deal?

At least he supports the war effort which is more than most other Hollywood types would do.
Thanks, eddiespaghetti. I'm up too late again... couldn't remember his name at this hour. ;-)
Maybe we can get him to whack al Sadr.
You haven't sacrifices anything. If you are serious visit a recruiter.
