1. First one's great. Second one is kind of a dud.

5. I'm glad you like the first one...
My 15 year-old daughter came up with the WWGD. I thought it was good.

2. I Like The Bottom One. Think The Top One Is Stupid.
But I always think the sentiment some say of "hey, if you support the war why don't you enlist" is stupid, so don't take it personally. :)

4. why do you think that inquiring as to why the supporters don't enlist is
stupid? surely, if they support the war, they should be willing to fight it. definitely a "put up or shut up" situation for them, I think.

besides, it amuses the hell out of me to listen to their oh-so-valid excuses for why they CAN'T enlist. . . .physical problems, age, important tasks, etc., etc. now WHERE have I heard those excuses before???? ah yes, the chickenhawks of this maladministration.

11. "if they support the war, they should be willing to fight it."
Edited on Wed Jun-28-06 06:03 PM by OPERATIONMINDCRIME
That right there is what I consider to be ridiculous and narrow.

I support finding a cure for cancer, but I'm not willing to devote my life to science in an effort to find one.

I support legalizing marijuana but I'm not willing to march in the streets each day until they do.

I support those that take public transportation to work but I'd rather drive.

I support the freedom for atheists, muslims, christians, wiccans etc to practice what they choose. But I don't want to be any of them.

You catchin on yet?

Supporting something does not mean having to actively participate. It never has. To think so is naive and narrow minded in my opinion.

13. Yeah, but none of those things involve sending other people's kids to
die. Do they? There's a BIG damn difference.

7. I don't take it personally...
I'm glad you took the time to look at them.

When I showed these to my Repuke co-worker, he said that he'd go fight in Iraq when Bush called him personally and asked him to go.

Can we say Cop Out?

3. first post is correct, of course, but I'd add this:
Edited on Wed Jun-28-06 05:43 PM by Gabi Hayes
ANY war supporter, regardless of age, should be challenged to GO TO IRAQ and help out in some manner: NGO, Blackwater employee, freelance charity worker, you name it

CHALLENGE these loudmouth ignoramouses at every opportunity

tell them to go over there and FIND the good stories and report them back to us TRAITORS!

PREACH it, my republican brothers and sisters!

12. pretty obvious, yes...and the thing I like about it:
it's hard for them to come back on, regardless of age, sex, etc.

makes them put their money where their mouths are

8. What Would God Do? is what I thought at first.
But I also see dumb when the United Bank of Missouri uses UMB. It drives me crazy.
