THE NAMES OF ALL 'CHILDREN OF CONGRESS' WHO VOTED FOR WAR:

http://www.buzzflash.com/editorial/05/08/edi05061.html

Yeah: like the guy I met the other day at the Apple Festival in Hendersonville, NC, as I was walking around with a sign on a 5 foot spike that said: GOP = DEATH: 'I volunteered for the Iraq I; they can volunteer...nobody makes them go.'

I'll start with the children of Richard Burr and Carpetbagger Elizabeth Dole in NC: (Senators first and then Reps?).....

Let's gather up these names and I will send to buzzflash or someone else can:

From that site:

Here is the full list of the children of Bush and his siblings who have chosen to let other young men and women -- mostly poor, rural and minorities -- die for them, because they have no desire to die for George W. Bush's alleged "noble cause" (assuming an eligible age of 17 with parental consent to join the military):

Military Service Eligible Children of George W. Bush
Jenna Bush
Barbara Bush

Military Service Eligible Children of Jeb Bush
George P. Bush
Noelle Bush
John Ellis Bush Jr.

Military Service Eligible Children of Neil Bush
Lauren Bush
Pierce Bush

Military Service Eligible Children of Marvin Bush
Marshall Bush

Military Service Eligible Children of Dorothy Bush Koch
Samuel LeBlond
Ellie LeBlond

Here is the complete chart:

Furthermore, not one of George's siblings served in the military when they were eligible, and Bush got a cozy stateside position in the Texas Air National Guard to avoid risking his life in another "noble war," Vietnam.

Why do George W. Bush, his siblings, and their children think that the war is "noble" enough for kids like Casey Sheehan to die in, but not them?

2. If the kids don't support the war, then I'll let them off the hook
But that seems to not be the case with the Bush Klan.
