How desperate are we?

Marine Sentries at Naval Academy Sent to Iraq A Naval Academy tradition that lasted 155 years has come to an end. The gates and crypts of Revolutionary War Capt. John Paul Jones at Annapolis have been guarded by Marine sentries since before the Civil War. The military has now withdrawn Marines from that post and redeployed them to Iraq. The four dozen Marines will be replaced by Navy enlisted personnel.

One of the problems you will get when the unnecessary war being fought is one that is supported almost entirely by Republicans is, you won't find enough people to fight it. The 30-35% of those who still support this war are unfortunately the same people who have never served the country and therefore, their children would never consider it either. I think to remedy that problem is to simply pass an emergency order that states those who still support this war need to be drafted. Disregard any age-limits because as we all know, M-16's are very light and riding around Baghdad in a light-armored Humvee doesn't take a whole lot energy. I'd say everyone under 65 years old who supports the war in Iraq needs to go fight it. That way you can make up for not serving your country ever before and you can put your money where your chickenshit mouths are. Implement that policy and we would be leaving Iraq by midnight of the day it started...guaranteed!
