Which makes it humourous from both angles -depending who you like and how you look at it.
I do agree with your equal rights statement, even being a woman I agree that isn't fair. But there are areas of the armed forces that women are not allowed to join either, so maybe that's their way of trying to even out the inequity?
No, actually it's just wrong on all fronts. But hey, what do you expect from a government who'd take advantage of public hysteria and enact the Patriot Act. It's funny that people are so for Kerry - saying he's different from Bush. Both supported WTO and the Patriot Act. From my standpoint they are both one in the same. You know, saying Kerry is the "lesser of two evils" still makes him an evil. I don't understand how that is logical.
Hm. Seems I got off subject. haha.

Undoubtedly there are many members of the armed forces who do not and never will enter into combat. There are many mundane tasks if you will, that need adressed. The evacuating of towns when huge storms come, the backing up of local police forces etc. Having said that, Most of the armed forces personnel I get to meet are a few cans short of a six pack. Being made/forced to do your duty for your country, to protect your freedom, by having it temporarily taken away from you, seems a little Ironic...

Yes guys, this site was meant as a joke as I insinuated in the post subject. I mean - come on, NPR Listenerism? But it is hilarious.
And Spanky I completely commend you for going into and through the Army processes and 8 years? That's awesome. I don't know. I can't say I'd never do it. And I guess I understand the fact that guys don't yet have that protective instinct thing completely phased out yet. I'm not really sure I want it phased out, it's nice to know that someone wants to protect you. But - it still just would make me feel powerless to be held back, not because of my abilities but because a group of guys can't handle it.
I guess we can't have the both of two worlds right? haha.
