greybeard 0 #1 March 4, 2005 Haveing trouble spelling recreuitment. Is sthis right? Didn't someone post the question, a couple of months ago, 'would the vollunteer numbers decrease?" Seem to remember a couple of responses to the effect that numbers were up and or at best stable. Looks a little diferent today. Any thoughts? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mcarchangel 0 #2 March 4, 2005 Too many Republicans want somebody else's kids to do the fighting, and too many Democrats want us to lose the war and want sombody else's kids to do the fighting.------------------------------------------------------- "These are the old days, the bad days, the all-or-nothing days.

TheAnvil 0 #4 March 4, 2005 I'd say several factors are in on that. Iraq, Afghanistan, baby boomer parents, improving economy - all of those factor into the recruiting situation today. Interesting.

tcnelson 1 #5 March 4, 2005 your view is too simplistic...i'm a republican and i did the fighting because it was the right thing to do. democrats fought along side me because they knew it was the right thing to do. so, it's not a republican/democrat thing...it's a wisdom thing."Don't talk to me like that assface...I don't work for you yet." - Fletch NBFT, Deseoso Rodriguez RB#1329 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
