Consider the benefits of joining the army

[Mabus]

Should student rosters be available to the military to aid recruiting?

"I think so, because a lot of students don’t consider the benefits that the Army offers. Especially when it comes to paying for college."

What a twit!

1. Or consider the Navy benefits; Like being in jail, plus you may drown.

Enlist and take advantage of those benefits or shut the phuck up.

3. She is a lifeguard

perhaps she used to work for Abramoff or the Iraqi reconstruction team. Either way, she's a moran who should get some brains.

4. She's a moran for sure!

Two groups that better stay out of my children's faces:

The military and the drug pushing pharmas.

5. Well, she should enlist then. I'm sure the military would be happy

to promise her a nice lifesaving gig (to get her to sign on the dotted line).

6. I'm sure she hasn't considered the number of college students who

are shipped to Iraq and not even able to attend school after they join the military to pay for college. What an ignorant girl - if the army is so great, maybe she should lessen the burden on her parents and join herself before assuming most students haven't considered how wonderful the army is. No way in hell would i sign up, i dont care how much money they tried to bribe me with.
