8. I don't weigh into arguments like this much
I'm of this magic age where I was too young for Vietnam, and too old for the gulf war, so I don't think I have the right to speak about others values.

Nevertheless, I have zero qualms about going into service to protect my country IF IT NEEDS PROTECTING. I have a major problem, though, with manufactured conditions and I'm damned if I'm going to die for some fuckup from Yale. I'll die for my country, but not for a dumb fuck who hasn't accomplished a fraction of what I have in about the same amount of time.

George, you want me to volunteer, send your daughters first.

Then I'll think about it.
