"Mr. Pres. How Important Is The Surge? And IF It's That Important, When Are Jen & Barb Going To Iraq

Knowing how seriously you considered the lives of our young men and women in uniform, and deciding it is so important that we 'surge' another 20,000 to Iraq, I know you are sending Jen and Barb too, right?

1. Is anyone asking whether there will be a "surge" in enlistments...

after tonight's address? Now's the time for God-fearing young Republicans to step up and defend their freedoms. That's what I want to know - how many Americans will be so gawd-damned inspired by Smirk's SOTU and sign up tomorrow?

3. I predict no 'bump' whatsoever in enlistments after Bush's Speech Tonight

.... and in case anyone wants to know, the Military reported to Bush there would be no more than 9,000 troops stateside available for deployment to Iraq(7500 Army and 1500 Marines). Of these 9,000 most are from new recruits. So they would be depleting the 'pipeline' and recruiting quotas would have to go way up.

Sure looks like draft conditions to me.

5. Freedom ain't free; remember that, all you young Republicans

That's what you've been saying all these years. Listen to your Great Leader tonight and do the patriotic thing. I'm sure the recruiting office will be opening early tomorrow just for you and your pals. Surge on in there and make us all proud!:patriot:

4. There are plenty of eligible

nieces and nephews too! Along with the children of those in the Senate and House who are supporting W there would be a big chunk of those troops he wants to put in there. If they really belive that this is going to work they need to sign up!

6. PUHlease

The first thing you learn in business is to risk other peoples money/lives. Apply that to Iraq and now you understand "it's all about the profiteering."
