Article by Fred Reed about the the walking wounded of the Iraq police
action. (GJ)


"... They will remember that their vice president, a man named Cheney,
said that during his war, the one in Asia, he "had other priorities."
The veterans will remember this when everyone else has long since
forgotten Cheney...."


"...The war in Iraq is fought by volunteers, which means people that
no one in power cares about. No one in the mysteriously named "elite"
gives a damn about some kid from a town in Tennessee that has one gas
station and a beer hall with a stuffed buck’s head. Such a kid is a
redneck at best, pretty much from another planet, and certainly not
someone you would let your daughter date. If conscription came back,
and college students with rich parents learned to live in fear of The
Envelope, riots would blossom as before. Now Yale can rest easy. Thank
God for throwaway people...."

Ever heard of a song entitled "Ain't No Senator's Son?" It said the same
thing about a draftee U.S. military in Nam!
