You're under-generalizing. My ideal would be that *nobody* should be eligible for military service. Failing that, if we eliminate the female half, and the what, 40% "people of color", and the what, 25% same-sexers -- well then, it would be pretty hard to put those boots on the ground, wouldn't it? And wouldn't that be a Good Thing? I expect most people in oh say Afghanistan would think so. -- Michael Smith m...@smithbowen.net http://stopmebeforeivoteagain.org http://fakesprogress.blogspot.com ________________________________________________ YOU MUST clip all extraneous text when replying to a message.
