Jon Stewert asked this last night and I think its a very good question. There are many roles women play in Iraq, why can't the good old twins take a stab at this nobel war?
 
Because it's their choice. No one makes people enlist, there is no draft.
 
well I guess only the po' folk chose to go to iraq ...rich folk are too busy playing squash at the countryclub or joining the Young Republicans ...besides their daddy's would just get them reassigned to somewhere more tourist-y

if the bush twins did join the military then they'd probably get assigned to defend the white house or something
 
No one forced anyone into the military so quit asking "Why wont bush tell his duaghters to fight?"

Ill tell you why, becuase it is a FREE country. It is thier choice. Please dont post this kinda crap, if they want to enlist they would.

Lets face it, would you want her as a supply sergeant? You'll order a case of ammo and end up with a case of beer.

Why don't you believe in people's right to choose what to do?
 
Because Bush is calling upon Americans to send their children to war, and he isn't doing anything to encourage his to do so.

Because many of the soldiers there didn't choose to go and most certainly didn't choose to be there for up to 3 years at a time.

I'm pretty sure they are free to make their own decisions.

They support the war, don't they? Then they should get off their drunk asses and fight for this "nobel cause".

Don't be so silly. It's like saying that everyone who supports Nuclear Power should work in a power station. Or anyone who supports "Save the Whales" should go jump on a boat to stop whaling.

You're allowed to have political views and you're allowed to make your own choices.
 
can you at least start spelling noble right no limit. you never have a point anyway, at least try and look smart.

You are comparing a job or enviromental views to going to war. War was not needed yet these people support it while there are tens of thousands of soldiers there that don't support it. Why don't these people take their place if war is such a great thing? Because they are too scared to do it yet they are okay with sending other peoples children. Do you think its right for a soldier who didn't support the Iraq war but was forced anyway to be there?

If any soldier is surprised that he has to go fight in a war, someone should buy him a dictionary.

Edit: Also you completely missed my point about the whales or Nuclear power.

Nobody ever said war is a great thing. I have heard war being called a necessary evil many times however.

The war in Iraq is in no way necessary.

A soldiers duty is to this country, and if that is abused or changed he has the right to refuse his orders.
 
Holy crap, the anti-bush / anti-war / anti-republican shit has got to stop. This is really ridiculous.

"lololol teh presadants daughters r rich so they NOT GO TO WAR LOLOLOLOL"

Yeah, along with the other millions of people who didn't get sent? Are you going to bitch at them too? Wow.

yes i know. but how many people do you see doing that. not very many, either out of fear, respect or what not. if they choose not to exersize that right thats their problem and not ours.

now if there is abuse in not allowing them to exersize that right then thats a whole different story.

Their father didn't start the war. Their father doesn't ask hundreds of thousands of Americans to risk their lives in Iraq each day to further his agenda.

So what you're saying is, the twins should be punished because they were born by a man who started a war?

I think the point is that he's willing to send other peoples children off to war where they can spill their blood for Iraqi liberation and so forth. If that is such an honorable undertaking, would he have any objection to sending his own kin? I think the man, or in this case men, willing to start the war should also be willing to feel the full brunt of it. I feel that should be the way with any war. They should be prepared to lead by example.
 
the aristocracy plans the war, the proletariat fights the war, the aristocracy reaps the spoils of war


this is has been true since man first waged civilized warfare

No need for it to hold true in our day.
 
George Bush has abused his power, pure and simple.

What do they say? "With Great Power Comes Great Responsibility", well he's proved himself anything but responsible except for the innocent Iraqi and American lives lost in Iraq.
 
Yes, let's send two perfectly healthy women to combat on the front lines. Nevermind if their children might bear good people.
 
Because any soldier over there would want to be the guy who slammed Bush's daughters
 
I say bush shoudl be fighting himself, forget the daughters, they are chump change, if he wanted to start this war, he should be over there in desert camo, rifle in hand, patrolling the streets of bahgdad, just like the grunts he ordered there. We have plenty of willing people in washington, ready at a moments notice, to go on vacation for 7 or 8 months while hes gone, so its not like no one can do his job.

No no, see, I wouldn't think you were such an idiot if maybe the draft was instated. But it's not. Soldiers

VOLUNTEER

FFS.
 
no soldier in iraq has to be there. they are there of their own accord. if bush's daughters choose to enlist, then so be it. if they dont, they "shouldnt" have to go. you assume that all parents ask their children to go to iraq, when those "children" are consenting adults who can do whatever the **** they please.
 
Oh you are completely correct pesmerga, in fact my two best friends who are/were over there, who "volunteered", enlisted pre-9/11 because they just knew coming out of the relatively peacefull clinton years that they would be sent to war. No one (sane) persons joins the military because they want to get shot at, they join because financially they have no escape. The army offers pay/college, and if you don't think thats why, then lets see the army drop those benifets and see if the all voluntary force will be enough to sustain this foreign policy.

No one volunteers to die, and if they are being asked to, how can you argue the fairness of the person asking, joining in the fight?
