Goodonya, Pook!
Realistically, my wife and I will probably never have any kids. But if we did have, I wouldn't want those slimeballs anywhere near them! Of course, the Homeland dossier on you just got a few pages bigger.
I have always kinda wondered why the recruiters don't advertise where they know there are lots of patriotic, macho young men who must be ACHING to serve their pResident? You know...Young Republicans clubs, church youth groups, that sort of thing. And since most of their stations are running the "Safety Campaign" to use up unsold time, I bet the army could buy commercials on Rush, Weiner, North, etc., dirt cheap! Now THAT would have young patriots simply beating down the door!
Their mother's door. To beg for a place to hide.
