Everyone that thinks the Bush girls ought to volunteer for the
Marines and assignment in Iraq, please sign in. I think they would be a great example for all the children in the "homeland."

2. Absolutely. What better way to express their deep concern...
...for the Iraqi people? Dumbya should be encouraging them to go. After all, he too cares deeply about the iraqi people. What better way to show your sincerety by sending your own children in to help bolster such a noble cause?

3. I don't know
Kind of a political stunt. I mean it's telling that the Bush twins and most other children of privilege are safe from war (unless they choose to enlist), but I don't think it has the same resonance as showing the faces of those who do choose to enlist. One of the best things about F9/11 was the bit where Michael talks about those who do put their bodies between us and war.

4. Why do you hate the Marines?
All they'd do is get a LOT of good Marines killed for no fucking reason.

I have a better job for them: Mess Management Specialists on an aircraft carrier.

6. The National Guard is no longer safe.
Lots of them have been sent to Iraq & quite a few have died.

8. Perhaps they can join the military and serve as that great hero Reagan
did, filming propaganda, safely in Hollywood. The lifestyle would be agreeable, I'm sure.

9. The Least They Could Do
would be to offer up some free lovin' to the soldiers on the front lines. I know. I need a :spank: Actually, that would be too easy for them.

12. You know I actually am a little surprised
that at least one of them did not apply for an Air Force commission. You'd have thought that Rove would have seized upon that as a PR stunt.
