Draft college Republicans...
I think we need to start making an issue of the new generation of Chickenhawks avidly supporting the war from the safety of their fraternities. Anyone up for starting a web site?

And while we're at it, how many fighting age sons of pro-war politicians are over there right now? Time to start asking them why before they become future Presidents.

6. Hey, I'm a supporter of Israel
and I never supported the war in Iraq. Don't include me in there.

9. Help me understand
What is wrong, exactly, with thinking that College Republicans (who support Bush, support the war, and are in the age group that would serve) should be the first people required to serve?

16. I was commenting on this
Two posts:

whistle "1. Yep and Jesus freaks also...


...let's really make this a Holy War"

Hey, but "Jesus freaks" isn't pejorative. Nah.

And:

bedtimeforbonzo "3. and most of all Zionists

Sent them to stop the bullets? Any hate there?

20. I think that was in reference to the Zionists remark.
Nothing wrong with this line of thinking, "who support Bush, support the war, and are in the age group that would serve" but party affiliation does not necessarily translate to war support. Though for the most part the College Repulicans have done away with that distinction.

11. How does telling college republicans to sign up equal "hate" in your book?
And who said we were all open-minded "tolerant" folk?

13. LOL. You just made me think of the Simpsons
"And what's all this crap I'm hearing about tolerance?"

"Your ideas are new and interesting to me. I would like to subscribe to your newsletter"

15. Where is the hate in asking people to be responsible?
If Republicans want to support Bush and his war machine shouldn't they be the first in line when duty calls?

19. This isn't a democratically elected administration - even so
This isn't a democratically elected administration - even so, where is the HATE or INTOLERENCE in suggesting that those who MOST support an action should be first in line?

12. Easy there, bonzo
Let's try to remember that Zionism does NOT equal Bushevikism (perhaps Sharon-ism does)

If you don't believe me, check these out

http://www.jppi.org/

http://www.nimn.org/

And, though I couldn't find it in Google, I KNOW there are groups of Israelis, including ex-IDF, who are fighting for Peace in similar groups.

Relax. Think about it. Please don't fall for bullshit stereotypes. That's for the idiot followers of Bunnypants*.

2. I'm 22
The whole idea of possibly having to fight this war I have spoke out against from the very first day drives me insane. One question the military should institute as part of its criteria for drafting is, do you support the war in Iraq. Everyone of draftable age that supports the war should go before those who can't stand anything about it.

5. Hear Hear
Mandatory service (I mean volunterism of course) for Bush* Supporters.

Anyone who loves their fearless leader as much as they say they do should not have any problems with serving his interests. I say Prove how much you love him!
