Are you kidding? Give up welfare,and sleeping till noon everyday, smoking a joint the moment you do wake up, partying all night, cruising around with your 'bro's" shooting at people,and making good cash dealing drugs, going to bed and doing it all over again, day after day-
Give that up for hard, ball busting work? Being forced to use your brain? having to live by rules? dicipline? being responsible? having enormous responsibilities and people depending on you for their lives?
HA! Not a chance. This is the democrat base we are dealing with; they'll have nothing to do with that "what can I do for my country" crap.
They elect and support the people who make the "what can my country do for me" checks happen. They might go as far as participate in demonstrations (which are really dope fests anyways), smash puplic property, set flags on fire, throw marbles under the hooves of police horses, but WORK for the nation, DEFEND it? Not a chance.
We should be thankful John Kerry's supporters DON'T enlist, I know I wouldn't want to put my life in their hands on the battlefield.
REcently a popular figure brought up the idea that MORE public demonstration could change the 'course' in this war and wondered where the protesters were. You and I well know that if the 'good' drugs were there they'd be there.
"We should be thankful John Kerry's supporters DON'T enlist, I know I wouldn't want to put my life in their hands on the battlefield."
Say it loud, my friend.
Keep in mind also that the military does not accept just anyone who wants to join. Many of those in the poorest communities may have criminal records that would exclude them from military service.
