Um....yeah. It indicates that he's a LIBERAL (RINO alert!). Detachment from reality is the first sure sign.
And what makes him 'think' (term used loosely in HIS case) that our soldiers over in Iraq didn't ""have to volunteer""? They're ALL volunteers! Nobody drafted them or forced them to join up. (freakin duh)
Let's vote these morons OUT next time.
As to the volunteering issue, he was making the point that our soldiers didn't have to join the military, that they had volunteered, and then went on to say that in the same way, he didn't have to change his vote on the filibuster, but did so for the good of the country.
