Why can't the Army make recruiting goals?
Edited on Mon Jan-31-05 03:51 PM by BOSSHOG
Because chickenhawk conservatives aren't patriotic afterall. They can vote for war; they can support SwiftBoat Liars indicating their desire that Americans should continue to be dying in Vietnam; they can put bumperstickers on their vehicles. But they obviously can't enlist. Stop by an Army recruiters office and pick up some business cards (They'll appreciate the help) and pass them around the water cooler. I'm sure you can target those in your midst. Nothing pisses a conservative off more than the truth. Offer to drive them to the recruiting office. Force their hand. Shove their patriotism up their asses with barbed wire wrapping. This veteran loves it when their sloping foreheads explode. Tell them their talk ain't as good as a walk. There is no greater coward than a swaggering bush supporter offered a military recruiters business card.

1. air force and navy are overstocked with people - they just need
to move them into the fodder units of army and marines

the navy and air force are gun ho - but they are not on the fighting front like the reserves - the reserves are part time and have not rights and no benefits - this is the sham

2. There's nothing worse than keyboard warriors: all talk and no balls.
