		<description>Mike,
Sorry I&#039;m late.  I wish I was here earlier to call you a dumbass but better late than never.

If you are against the war, go kill a Marine... good luck with that one you jackass...

		<description>Matt,
Interesting comment. And I am sorry no one in the military asked you the &quot;why don&#039;t you sign up?&quot; question. But it is being asked of you NOW and still you won&#039;t or can&#039;t answer specifically for yourself. Is it because you wish not give a definative answer to any of these difficult questions because later on in life you yourslef are considering running for office and you do not want your opinions to come back to haunt you. I&#039;m just asking the questions. How come you won&#039;t answer them for yourselfand for everyone who reads your Blog? Instead three times you have played advoidence and tried to diminish the discussion. Why would that be? My questions are numbered to make it easier to answer . And yes you are right about the obvious. The military is a volunteer service. The questions above still stand. As wel as the question of organizing a fund raiser or something for the troops and their families. C&#039;mon Matt you seem to be attempting to act like a politician and scape goat any direct questions with an answer. The only difference is you are not a politician. WHy can&#039;t you answer directly from and for yourself?</description>

		<description>Mike,

you don&#039;t seem to get it. Your questions are predicated on the notion that support for a war should only be excerise by joining the military. Its a ridiculous assertion. No one in the military I&#039;ve ever met who knew I supported the war said &quot;Well, why don&#039;t you sign up and join?&quot;

Regarding question 3. Mike, you may not realize this, but we have a volunteer military.

this stupid discussion is over.</description>

And for all heres my questions– numbered that I would love Matt to answer:
1&gt; Do you support the War in Iraq?
2&gt; WOuld you go there yourself to fight if you support such a war?
3: If you will not fight yourself and support the war-do you feel you are asking others to do so in your stead?
4. Could you also tell us how you specifically and personally and I quote you are “fighting anti-American front”? If you are that is.
5. Follow up to number 4-Do you feel that if you are part of the “fight on the anti-american front” that you are fighting with your life the same way our troops are fighting for your choice not serve in the military? Again this assuming you support the WAR in Iraq.
Looking forward to really hearing your thoughts and hopefully being more specific?
Thanks mike</description>

		<description>Ok Matt --sure whatever you say. I wasn&#039;t here to win an argument but to hear you, just you be more specific in your opinions about the WAR and yourself. I wanted to understand. You have not done either.Let me ask the other readers if they feel you have provided a specific or staisfactory answer or explained your opinion fully. Cant hurt to ask right? One other thing when you say &quot;Mike, I’m tired of you pulling your “why don’t you go server” bull shit everywhere.&quot; Do you mean physically and metally tired like our troops on a day to day basis fighting the war or do you mean tired as &quot;in gosh my fingers are tired from just...typing.&quot; AGain what do you think about doing a fund raiser for military families? You certainly couldn&#039;t object to that could you?

		<description>Matt you may think you made a point but you have made none. Again you respond to me with just questions. Who is this &quot;we&#039;re&quot; you speak of when you refer to &quot;We’re fighting the war on many fronts&quot;. Are you including yourself in that if so how? It is the same question I wrote before. Be specific MAtt if you can . Are you for the war in Iraq? Or are you not? If you are what specifically are you doing? Then if you can answer that ask yourself &quot;Are you letting other fight a War that you yourself a physically capable of doing as well. &quot; Or do you feel actually putting yourself in harms way on the frontline is something you feeel you could not nor be asked to do but have no problem asking someoelse to do in your stead. Let&#039;s put your cards on the table. YOu certainly aren&#039;t afriad to be more specific are you? YOu Matt are certainly not afriad that your fellow BUsh supporters might judge you for doing too much or not doing enough are you? And what do you think of using your Blog site to at least help military families or wounded soldiers by raising some funds? Is that something we could do with your help? Would you like to organize something like that? Give it some thought. And to answer your question, &quot;Mike, why do you think people who support the war have to sign up and fight in order to support it?&quot; One I&#039;m not asking &quot;people&quot; in general just you. Why can&#039;t you answer that for yourself? I wonder?
