Funny; my work place is full of Republicans and yesterday I ask those loyal Repubs (with are all of fighting age) what they thought of the facts that the military is having a hard time finding warm bodies for their war. A couple stated that it was all just a liberal plot to undermine their war efforts.

Others stated that the draft should be enacted once again!

I then stated, but you all are of fighting age, why wouldn’t you (if you really believe in you President’s war) sign up and show your support. After all you say your war is justified.

To a person, they all said no. Again, some stated the draft would be the right way to go about it.

But then as an after thought; they all did the math just to make sure that they were too old to be drafted before saying they concurred.

After thought; it seems it isnÃ¢â‚¬â„¢t that funny after all!

After the attack on Peal Harbor; Thousands of loyal Americans join the United States military to show support for that administration and go off to fight and die for what they believed in. But here after the attack on the United States not even so call loyal Republicans of fighting age are willing to sign up to help our brave Soldiers fight a battle in which they themselves helped bring about.

They say they back their Prez, but words without actions are just empty words.

Seems they really donÃ¢â‚¬â„¢t support their President after all!

Can anyone tell me if this speech is on tape, and from where it might be accessed?

Bush, Cheney, Rove and the rest of the neo-con gang in the White House for the past five years have CORRUPTED our intelligence agencies with their extreme right-wing hackery and quackery.

Just wonderin’….

As our military has had difficulty in recruiting warm bodies to fight Bush’s War in Iraq, are our intelligence agencies also having difficulty recruiting new covert intelligence agents, especially after Valerie Plame’s CIA cover was blown by the neo-cons?

The speech highlighted here by Reagan is why most Republicans are demanding that the Plame leaker be held accountable.

It’s their only choice if they don’t want to be called hypocrits.

This reminds me of how good Reagan’s speech writers were (Peggy Noonan included….yuck!) and how beautifully he could deliver the speech, the man above all else had a gift for bringing the written word to life (all actors do I suppose). Bush has excellent speech writers too, unfortunately for them the messenger is only semi-literate.
