The Kos and Atrios links to Jonah Goldberg's excuses about being 35 and having kids and not being able to afford the lost income to go fight in the war he cheerleads for makes me laugh and I love when the people my age (35 and slightly over try to spin their way out with that crap. I pull out that both of my grandfathers were over 34, married, and with kids when they went off to fight world war two. Both my grandmothers found people to watch the kids and went off to work to support the family in their husband's absence.
If conservatives love to compare our current struggle to world war two then so be it. But I'm going to hold their sorry asses to the same standard my grandparents were held to in that war. Or should I say held themselves to. If you think this war is truly for the safety of the free world then nothing would keep you away from fighting it.
