[quote="Mr.Buttocks":acd99]These 5,500 are just following the example set by their current Commander in Chief; he didn't want to go to Vietnam, they don't want to go to Iraq. What's the problem here? Is Bush a coward too?[/quote:acd99]

He did serve his country, not everybody went to nam. Man, I don't WANT to go to Iraq, but if I have to then I will.

[quote:acd99]Correct me if I'm wrong, but when you take the Oath and are sworn in, you serve your country unconditionally.

If you get called, you go. No question. You signed up for it, after all.

If you didn't want to make the commitment, you shoulda got an office job like me. I knew LONG ago that I was too much of a pansy to join the military.

Otherwise, tighten your chinstrap and get going.[/quote:acd99]

Correct, when you swear in you make a promise to keep the oorders of the president, and to fight all enimies domestic and foriegn.

The Oath of Enlistment

"I, (Your Name Here), do solemnly swear that I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same; and that I will obey the orders of the President of the United States and the orders of the officers appointed over me, according to regulations and the Uniform Code of Military Justice. So help me God."
