My sister ( LIBERAL) started having a fit when I told her...mind you her son has been active AF 10 years-reserves 4 years.....called Bush a rotten SOB, blah, blah...... Then I told her they WANTED to go. ( I had left that part out because I knew what was coming ;) Her own boy told her this is what they do when called upon. She loves the money & benefits her kid gets from being in the service but would have a fit if he had to go overseas.
I take my hat off to you reamaining friends with her, sister or not,lol.
I cringe whenever I see or hear Bush as well but it's not a personalty contest eh. Imagine Kerry trying to please everyone, a right mess the country would have ended up in.
