[barbara100 at jps.net]

We're there to defend and rebuild them? How naive...

Kinda ironic that Europeans, Middle Easterners, South Americans (where
military service is required) are flooding into the USA, avoiding
military service, finding work and prospering, while US men and women
are shipped to these countries to defend them and rebuild them, yes, and
even lose limbs and lives for them. Whatever you think drafts and wars,
it's kinda hard to see young men from Iraq and Iran and Afghanistan,
sitting at a corner coffee shop in the middle of the afternoon, in their
God Dam PJs, watching the tube,  while American boyz and girls die over
there. Don't look like the war mongering Democrats will get us out of
these wars. So, maybe a year in the Greek army don't look that bad now?
