Do you have proof it's a lie?
Also, are you saying "This is only a valid argument if the nation has a draft" 'at this time'?
Why would you think that can't change in the future?
You really are silly. Since when is it against the law to be to fat to join the volunteer army? Since when did we decide the government should tell our children what to eat and how many calories are good for them? It is a lie because it is NOT THE TRUTH. That is sufficient proof.
Children today may have weight issues do to several factors...they watch too much TV; they play video games instead of outdoors; the nanny state keeps redefing what ‘obese’ is to make the stats look awful. I do not consider this a ‘national security’ issue. This retired admiral and his yes bos ought to shut the hell up.
