My Father's Army and my Army no longer exist.

Even though the United States Army, the U.S. Navy, the U.S. Marine Corps and the U.S. Air Force are the greatest fighting forces ever assembled on earth, the dumbing down, drug-prescribed, popular culture indoctrinated American public is watering down our Military recruitment population.

You know I'm not talking about you true, American patriots, but I am talking about the Hopey, Changey loser parents among us who raise these drug induced children that are suppose to fill our Military's ranks.

God help America!

Yeah. And then the good ones who are fit and do serve are treated like crap.

A gay/female military is not going to work.

Who will bring back the draft? Probably a Republican.

Got to raise them in the swamp, no street corner hangouts. You can have a lot more to say about who they associate with.

If your school has a good ROTC program sign them up, best bunch of kids in the school.

Being a sexual pervert with a couple of duffel bags full of mental issues is okay though, right?

The situation is not good, but in fact part of this is BUDGETARY:

When the economy is bad and the Army has little money, it makes sense for them to tighten standards up, this way they get to kick people out.

Tattoos and flab are a major way of doing that.

They’re trying to get to the numbers they’re more comfortable with.

When the economy is rich and also the Army has rich funding they’ll loosen things up (but in my opinion that won’t happen for quite awhile).

Michelle Obama has new warning on obesity

Dec 13 2010

First Lady Michelle Obama plans to warn in remarks Monday that the nation is seeing “a groundswell of support” for curbing childhood obesity, and she is unveiling new ammunition from current and retired military leaders.

“[M]ilitary leaders … tell us that when more than one in four young people are unqualified for military service because of their weight,” the first lady says in prepared remarks, “childhood obesity isn’t just a public health threat, it’s not just an economic threat, it’s a national security threat as well."

I always thought we sent our best and brightest young men and women off to war to die and then those that couldn’t make the cut stayed home and were left to procreate.

Patriotic, God-fearing, Gun-loving, straight heterosexuals need not apply as they have too much baggage to fit in...

The military has always been a reflection of society. The citizen soldier has been our tradition.

If the pool of applicants is this messed up, it is because our population is messed up. It helps explain King Obama as well.

They are anti-Christian and pro atheist and Islam now. What Christian in their right mind, would put themselves in this unconstitutional, evil supporting organization?
