Oh, you must be joking

patricks pointed this article out. Young Republicans are all gung ho about the war in Iraq, but seem to be "otherwise engaged" to actually participate in it.

Bill Maher also said it: if you support the Iraq war, go serve in it. There's a number of us who don't agree with it, and don't want to participate in it. But I'm amazed that the ones who support it so much don't want to help serve in it, especially since there is a need. Numerous articles have come out stating that the military is not reaching their recruitment goals. And yet young Republicans don't see a need for themselves to serve. Nice.

Don't be a Yellow Elephant!

And yet the overwhelming majority of those actually serving, regardless of their political party, are FOR the actions being taken in Iraq. Go figure.

You have to be.

Sometimes supporting the war simply means not smugly laughing and pointing fingers and saying "I told you so" when something goes wrong.

Huh? Who is doing that?

That would most likely be because the cowardly little assholes can talk the talk, but they can't walk the walk.
