Stupid idea. The next pictures we'd see are the bodies of Peace corps volunteers hanging from bridges.

Beat me to it! That's EXACTLY what will happen.

Exactly. Besides, this idea is based on a very shaky assumption, that Peace Corp volunteers would be welcomed and appreciated.

Contrary to the marketing, many PC vols have been arrogant, stand-offish, reluctant to actually get their hands dirty, and ended up alienating the natives who, while technologically primitive, know a phoney when they see one.

In other words, typical liberal dipsh*ts who might just deserve to be strung up, for their attitude alone.

(based on reports from a former PC member, and the PC's own newsletter awhile back.)

I'll try to run on Kennedy's platform this week. We can flash pictures of a PT boat and people will think it's me in the delta. Interestingly, I have a copy of Profiles in courage sitting on top of the stack of books nearest me.

I'll browse it and watch what Kerry plays on this week.

In the meantime, this is from the forward:

"Each of them had some principal or idea which he believed in; and when the time came, each of them chose to act according to his beliefs even though to do so meant unpopularity and criticism and often defeat in elections. That is why it is called Profiles In Courage. For it takes great courage to do what you think is right........."

The Peace Corpse.

Does this fool not understand that we are in a war ??

If this were June 1944, Kerry would be advising FDR to send the Peace Corps to Normandy.

You took the words right out of my mouth...

The guys they hung from the bridges were ferrying food to these morons...

Perhaps he was misquoted and meant the Pieces Corpse...

Exactly, if the UN fled Iraq after one bombing after they declined help for protection, what makes Kerry think Peace Corps volunteers are going to be any safer?

[smonk]

no kidding. sending the peace corps to a war zone? they'll
last 10 minutes.

he's probably speaking of merely the threat of sending
the peace corps, and will then vote against supporting the
peace corps financially.
