How many Republicans are going to feel so patriotic this 4th of July?

That THEY will decide to join the Army to help their dear President win HIS war in Iraq? My Republican neighbor is all rah rah with the Iraqi war but won't let his 19 year old son join the Army...(Just like Mitt Romney!) Why is that?

1. The majority of the army is made up of honorable men. When will the libs step up to defend their own rights to criticize those who lay down their lives, so that those morons can even be free to speak out?
2. I did my part. I was a combat medic in Iraq and I served proudly for 4 years. What have you done?
3. Its a shame you don't seem to find any Love for your Country.
4. Bush and Cheney wouldn't fight in Viet Nam; why would anyone want to fight in the Iraqi-Burton War? Hypocrites!
5. I will celebrate our Independence- not a political party!
6. 1. Most republicans don't associate themselves with Bush Jr. any more. 2. How the hell are we suppose to know what your neighbor is thinking? 3. Do you even have a neighbor or are you just sitting on your porch drinking kool-aid?
7. and just like a liberal whining about what WORKING americans will do to protect and defend their country against al qaeda...GET A JOB!
8. If you believe "patriotic" means wrapping oneself in a flag as they stuff themselves with cheap beer and hot dogs; than yes they will feel patriotic for the 4th of July.
9. Therer are many reasons why people do or do not join the army. Some are better suited to the military than others. Generals seem to prefer those who are best suited, what a surprise. Is for a 19 yr old son, he is legally an adult. He makes his own decisions.
10. maybe Bush should finish his time as well to make up for the time he was AWOL
11. There are still Republicans in America?!?!?! I thought Berry Gold water and Gerald Ford both passed away. NeoCons look at the Forth of July as a welfare event. If people really loved America they wouldn't waste money on fireworks. Go Team Red Go
12. I did my part. Isnt it funny that coward libs like you are even allowed to celebrate Independence Day? Instead of noticing all of your neighbors contributions, worry about your own....
13. It's OUR war in Iraq, I AM in Iraq, I don't see YOU in Iraq...so shut up!! Oh, and count me in on that Republican celebration there Liberal Boy! P.S. Do you enjoy your freedom by condemning the means by which it's provided?
14. Bush avoided war and Cheney avoided war, but are willing to send others to war. It's is really cowardly and pathetic. A true conservative would fight like a man and not be a wuss.
15. We will. We have plans to go to a town fair and then watch fireworks. It's how we celebrate our freedoms. I'm sorry you do not get along with your neighbor. Maybe we could all work on this.
16. If more Republicans were really as supportive of this war as they claim to be, the Army would not be granting waivers for serious criminal offenses, taking people with low aptitude scores, paying out such large recruitment bonuses, taking in gang members and skinheads and raising age limits. Their so-called patriotism seems to be limited to lip service. All of this is done in an effort to get enough people to meet the quotas. This kind of military recruiting is not good for the military and is not good for the US.
17. It is a volunteer army and there seems to be no shortage of volunteers.
18. Funny part is that the Army is about 87% Republican so I guess it's no surprise that a lib like you doesn't get it because you haven't got a clue.
