Out of a job, Republican staffer? Why not join the Marines?

Republican staffers, a new career awaits


Dear Republican staffer,

As you know, the last election cycle has left many of you looking for employment.

We are hiring.

We know many of you are patriotic Americans who long to serve their country, and take great pride in the country and it's ideals.

I'll be honest, we need more Marines. We need the kind of men and women who want to serve this country, and often face danger.

Having served the Congress, you know the peril we face. Without your help, all of our work and effort in the war on terror may come to naught.

We need you to join the fight. Anyone between 17-35 can enlist in the Marines, although we prefer enlistees by 27 or 28. We will consider older candidates.

Those interested can get more information at www.marines.com

We have information on becoming a commissioned officer for college graduates. The Marines need new, dedicated officers like you.

We hope you consider joining the Marine Corps as your next career option.

Semper Fi,

Col. D. Michael Clayburn
Recruiting, USMC

1. And, if the marines don't work out

How about the Army?

[tabasco]

3. Yeah, the Army will take you up to 42 years old now !!

www.goarmy.com

Any able-bodied republican who thinks it's a "fight for civilization" needs to join up now!!

SERIOUS PERSONNEL SHORTAGES EXIST IN THE MILITARY, ESPECIALLY THE COMBAT ARMS FIELDS LIKE INFANTRY !

John Kerry volunteered for combat - Where are the freepers?:shrug:

5. I think Republickers are automatically considered Category 4. n/t

[alteredstate]

9. Kicked

and recommended

[BlueCollar]

2. I think the Marines have standards

as do the rest of the forces...

I suspect that there are plenty of openings at KBR and Halliburton though

[Greeby]

6. I've read those standards are dropping pretty rapidly

As they need bodies for Shrubler's wars, they're allowing gang members and neo-nazis.

[BlueCollar]

8. OK...point taken

but I doubt it was their choice...a missive from DOD and Rummy is my guess

[moondust]

4. Great idea!

The perfect opportunity for them to continue their dedication and service to country. I'll bet most of them are gun owners so they have a head start already! Join the fight, pugnuts!

[brentspeak]

7. Wow. The Marines have upped their enlistment age to 35?

The previous age limit I think was 27.

[Zambero]

10. Yes, by all means it's their turn to get stuck in Iraq

They never studied hard and never got smart in college, so the best they could ever hope to accomplish in life was being Republican Hill Gophers. The "mission" demands that they train up and deploy to Iraq immediately, as does their newfound unemployed status.

11. A chance for Pug staffers to redeem their sorry asses

:kick: and recommend

[barbtries]

12. that's the ticket!

AND FROM what i hear it's getting so hard to get enlistees pretty soon old rumsfeld will be young enough to sign on. he's already sick enough to embrace the program. locking up and torturing people...inflicting collateral damage, friendly fire fatalities, being proxy for a band of bushies, murderous greedy power and warmongers all.

[elehhhhna]

14. Welcome, barbtries! LOL good post!

[formercia]

17. I can just see Rummy in the rubble with his Panzerfaust.

The Home Guard.

[Hubert Flottz]

13. Pvt. JD "HOGHEAD" Hayworth

Has a nice sound to it! Get down and give me 5645677889909887665 MAGGOT!

EDIT ... "NOW LET ME SEE YOUR WAR FACE, SHITBIRD!"

[gfnrob]

15. Make sure they remember...

"Don't ask, Don't tell" or most of them will not get in.:evilgrin:

[elehhhhna]

16. They even have a new, Reepish, recruitment theme song, here:
