Assuming you think Iraq is a just and good war that needs to be fought - why isn't your happy ass in a uniform, like mine was at your age?

Back in '91 at the start of George Sr's foray into Iraq, I was teaching programming at a local business school. The day that we actually went into Iraq, after bombing the hell out of them for a good long while, the major conversation was of course the invasion. All the guys in my programming class were like "Yeah, lets go kick some ass", "Take out Iraq", "show him who's boss", the normal bravado type shit. I walked into class and listened to all this for a bit and then asked the room, "Ok, how many of you have gone down and signed up to go fight".
Room went pretty much totally silent.
Lot's of folks talk the talk. Not so many walk the walk.
