Recruiters Target Hurricane Survivors At Astrodome

Looks like we found a new low in an effort to enlist more bodies for Bush's war. Nothin like offering a low paying, high risk job to poor people that just lost what little they had.

"Ten U.S. Army recruiters are offering volunteer help for Katrina evacuees at Houston's Astrodome. But the recruiters, struggling to keep enlistment up during Iraq war, are also available with options for the jobless. "Our intent is to approach the evacuees at the right time for them,'' says Army spokesman Douglas Smith."
