Answering a young Bush follower

"I'm having a really hard time listening to people make their debate
cases based on Michael Moore's purely propagandic film. I hate that he
is just getting his ego fed more and more because of his extremist
"documentary."

It's especially hard to listen to all of this being in college, where
a good part of my peers are bleeding heart liberals and I'm not. I got
into a shouting match with a co worker tonight in our
liberal/conservative clash.

Bush is a good president. Yeah, we're all a little edgy following 9/11
and the invasion of Iraq, but the fact of the matter is if he had sat
back and done nothing, everyone would be pissed off then too. It was
like he was stuck between a rock and a hard place and many people
(read: the left) are ready to jump down his throat about any and every
decision he makes.

What makes anyone think that John Kerry will do a better job? If we
want to talk about shady pasts, let's talk about HIS Vietnam record. I
don't even think war records really matter at this point in the
election. People are blowing way too much smoke around this Vietnam
business and it hardly matters thirty years later. What matters now is
the future and what either man plans to do with it."

Cosmo's response:

"Here's your solution in a nutshell Amanda. Drop out of college and join the Army. As soon as you get out of trianing, you go the the Company HQ, and ask for a DD form 1049. That is a transfer request. Write "IRAQ." In no time, you will be doing something you, seem to be whole-heartedly behind. This way you won't have to get in shouting matches with you liberal peers, you wull be a living, or dead, testimonial to your belief system. Now, you know what to do.

See, then, instead of hearing people jumping down his throat for every decision, you can be there to defend his decision in a combat zone, rather than the confines of college.

And, God forbid, one of his "decisions" costs you your life, but at least you will die knowing you defended something you belive in, instead of just paying lip service. Unless Amanda, you are to good to fight the war, and just uneducated slobs have to go and fight, and the closest thing you do to war, is a nasty "shouting match" with liberals.

When you get to Iraq, please find a PC and let us know how you are doing.

PS. Maybe you will be real lucky like the kids who are your age, who are in Walter Reid hospital getting fitted with fake arms and legs, courtesy of one of Bush's decisions.

Bye now, don't forget to write."
