I'm glad I got out of that job because I really couldn't handle having to feed Dubya's BS campaign. <br /><br />The army made its goal recruiting by lowering the standards a helluva lot. Thats a move that will cost later. As a former army recruiter I have to agree. I’m glad I got out of that job because I really couldn’t handle having to feed Dubya’s BS campaign.

Give them a Commander in Chief that won't get them stuck in a killing field.<br /><br />Don't expect any major increase in enlistments before 2008. I'd expect a surge at that point if McCain or a Democrat wins. Either someone who'll fight this war smarter, or someone who'll end the war. Best way to increase the size of the armed forces?

I think it is pretty clear that you have no respect for our servicemen. I can confidently say that you haven't been on a 210' ship with 411 hatians that you just stopped from entering the US; or been to a hatian port delivering UN supplies and getting shot at. Once you are in touch with what the Coast Guard does, then you can compare them to the Girl Scouts... until then, beware of your comments.
