Shut-Up and Sign-Up

Now hear this. All young Republicans. Two years from now, we'll still need troops in Iraq. The National Guard will essentially be out of the fight. You see, the National Guard cannot be made to return under4 current rules that limit to 24 months guardsmen's active duty obligation. You have made it known that you support the Bush Administration's War in Iraq. You now have the opportunity to show the world what you're made of...truely. If you start your military career now, you will be fully trained and ready to take your place inside of two years. That will give us a seamless transition from National Guard, who make up a significant portion of the people assigned to that theatre, and active duty personnel.

You have been given three years now to finish up at school and get your affairs in order. The time for action is now. Oh, and don't worry about the lack of vehicle and body armor, I'm quite sure your family will be able to furnish it for you. And, if you're wounded, there are the medals. Don't be concerned about the lack of hospital care when upon your return you find them closed or unsuitable. Private care is much better anyway. And, arms and legs can be purchased on the open market. After all, this is a Capitalist country isn't it? One should expect to take care of these things themselves.

Forgot one other small item. Congress is trying desperately to manage the national debt...what with the war and all. So, the Food Stamp Program will be cut. Your family will be grateful enough just to see you serving your country and will provide food and shelter for your wive's/husband's and children. Quite sure you're aware that beginning wages in the military will leave you a little short.

So, here is your opportunity you fucking little twits. Shut-Up and Sign-Up.
