And yes, Cindy Sheehan was confronted; please move along if you don't want to hear what she has to say in response. Thank you.

PS Chickenhawk Who Argued With Cindy Sheehan Is Secretary of Montgomery County Republican Club

3. Look towards the end of the clip.
He is 31 years old and says "They dont need a 31 year old" or something like that.

Anyone have his mailing address so we can get the recruiter after him.

Army raises enlistment age

ORT KNOX, Ky. (Army News Service, June 22, 2006) – The Army has raised the enlistment age to 42, made possible under provisions of the Fiscal Year 2006 National Defense Authorization Act.

The Army raised the active-duty age limit to 40 in January as an interim step while it worked out the additional medical screening requirements for recruits ages 40 to 42. Before January, an applicant could not have reached his or her 35th birthday. The Army Reserve age limit was raised from 35 to 40 in March 2005.


I imagine the entire organization whose members are under 42 will immediately stop what they're doing and enlist.

though he was a CIA puppet.

As for low-life chickenhawk's question, "What will happen when we leave?" - since when have neocons cared about their own people, never mind brown-skinned foreigners with oil they can plunder.

Did you see the gross vehicle the chickenhawk got into? Christopher Cadette, the perfect poster-boy for the war in Iraq. You couldn't caricature them; they are already too gross a caricature of the way DUers have been saying they are. SUVs and all.

Edited on Sun Jul-15-07 11:01 AM by TheBaldyMan
Another Chickenhawk shows his true colours,

Chickenhawk:"If they needed me I'd join up right now"

Vet:"They do need you"

Chickenhawk: *gulp* (backs off towards his SUV and scoots).

What a coward. A yellow streak a mile wide.

10. "They want me to make money so I can pay for it, so that's what I'm doing."
I wish someone asked him if he supported a war tax so the rest of his fat cat buddies would pay for the war.

13. Chicken[shit]hawk should...
join the marines, volunteer in Iraq and use his military pay to also pay for the war. So, he can both pay for the war in dollars and limbs.

16. The way His Nibs was talking, you'd have thought those veterans
hadn't paid taxes - in fact, an inordinate level of income tax even while they were fighting in Vietnam and now from their pensions, as no matter how high the rich are taxed they are always... well... rich beyond the dreams of avarice. At least the avarice of any half normal person.

11. Enlistment Age is 42. See proof

Army raises enlistment age


31 years old?? what the fuck does he think he's eligible for Medicare already or something?? stupid outta shape rube.

What's going to happen to eye-raq when we leave? simple. The people are going to Democratically elect someone that is virulently anti-America, that will install a new Islamic Theocracy (Iran II) and he will make the torture chambers of Saddam's era look like Spas.

These stupid yahoos still believe that out of this turmoil somewhere the people are going to rise up and create some sort of Southern Baptist Christian run country? THE PEOPLE DO NOT WANT THAT. THE PEOPLE WANT AN ISLAMIC NATION. THAT'S WHAT DEMOCRACY IS GOING TO MEAN TO THEM. THAT IS WHAT IT MEANS NOW.

17. Count one dem in AL...
...that supports Cindy. The chickenhawk in the video is completely typical. I see them all day everyday. This guys argument (if you want to call it that) is the same one the rest of them make. These are people that are taught blind faith as soon as they exit the womb. There is nothing you can say to change their minds. Fortunately, their numbers are negligible right now in this country even if they are overwhelming in AL.

28. I don't believe it's blind faith, personally. I believe it's blind avarice.
Edited on Mon Jul-16-07 04:11 PM by KCabotDullesMarxIII
One of the vets should have asked him if he had any financial interest in any part of the armaments industry. I'd be very surprised indeed if he didn't.

It all makes sense now. Make war so the chickenhawks can make more money so the soldiers can have a pension. He never seemed quite sixteen ounces, but that must break new frontiers of idiocy, even for the neonates.

I don't know about the conventional arms industries, but I reckon you could do with raising the production of crossbows - each one personally signed by Burt Reynolds.

19. Text of my email to the Alabama Republican Party
(For those who don't know me, I'm from Alabama)

As you may know, Cindy Sheehan was recently in Montgomery. Toward the
end of her interview, she was accosted by a Mr Ducovich, who strongly
disagreed with her cause, as is his right.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DSK48YP-6t4

Perhaps Mr Ducovich is unaware of this website:

http://www4.army.mil/OCPA/read.php?story_id_key=9197

Perhaps he's a member of the Republican Party in Montgomery
County, in which case, you have his contact information. Since
he's only 31 and apparently in good health, you may want to provide
his address to local military recruiters.

Or, and this in my opinion is the most likely case, Mr Dukovich, along
with most war supporters of military age, is simply a chickenhawk, support
the war as long as someone else has to fight it.

This should infuriate anyone, regardless of political party. I'm obviously a
Democrat, but more important, an American. At one time, we could disagree
without being disagreeable, find common ground, and compromise. What
happened? Our Nation was built on compromise. Just read the minutes of
the Constitutional Convention.

Ron XXXXX
PO Box XXX
Carbon Hill, AL 35549
Cell (205) XXX-XXXX

The Montgomery County Republicans website has no contact info and the
office was closed July, 1.

26. I like any effort that succeeds or not to expose these piece-of-shit
cowards and their hypocrisy. Every single GOP group should get emails like this (esp. college repugs) with information on how to enlist. I'll take the time off work to give 'em a lift. I did my 6 years, time for these assholes to get out and pull the wagon (an old Phil Gramm quote, yuk). My fave puke line is the "it's patriotic to stay here, make lots of $$ to support the war with taxes". Same cocksuckers who say they hate taxes, which is it ASSHOLES??:puke:
