She was not against the War in Iraq. She never has been. She isn\'t really against it now. Post 9/11 it was political suicide to not vote for military action. Only a few brave dems were bold enough to say this is a bad idea. I think there was what only a handful that voted no on giving the president power to go to war. And they are the only ones who can stand up and say. See I was right.
What I think is funny is that they really believe that people buy the crap they are selling now. Oh if I had known now what I knew then I wouldn\'t have done it. Gimme a break. What a bunch of crap.
yup.
True true...i forgot about that. on vacation in mexico last year, i was oogled by the locals in a not so platonic way. but i just dont like canada...mmm...maybe england...
Current US law allows anyone put into armed service via conscript or any other form of signing up who deserts and moves to another country (aka draft dodge to canada) to be arrested, brought back and put up on charges of desertion in a military court. This agreement is set with both mexico and canada, don\'t know about europe. Also, as you may or may not be aware, upon signing up for military service, YOUR BODY becomes MILITARY PROPERTY for the 8 year minimum that you are enlisted, which means that if you purposely hurt yourself as a way of getting off the front lines (break your leg, shoot yourself in the foot, etc) you can and will be brought up on charges of willful destruction of military property.
As I always asked the recruiters in high school:
1. If it is as good as you say, why are you here trying to persuade me to join? It wouldn\'t have anything to do with the fact that you get to extend your leave and stay home in the states an additional 2 months as long as you keep getting people to sign up, would it? I mean, if it is so good, why are you here and not overseas?
2. Have you ever read "All quiet on the western front"? Because you really should.
