How many young supporters of George W. Bush do you know who have been willing to put their life on the line and serve in Iraq? How many Young Republicans? How many College Republicans? How many Young Americans for Freedom? Not too many, I think. Young neo-cons and fundies are, for the most part, spitting images of their heroes Bush, Cheney, Rumsfeld, Rove, Wolfowitz, Perle, and Limbaugh. They are chickenhawks. Willing to sacrifice the underclass on the altar of their murderous ideology. But not willing to pick up an M-16 and put their asses at risk. A lot of the right wing trolls who lurk on Tribe are like this.
It would serve them right if Congress could pass a law conscripting every young person who supported Bush, starting with his daughters. That would shore up the military personnel problem. The problem, of course, would be that the armed forces would then be filled with wingnuts.
