Like Bush? Go to Iraq
George W. Bush has been given four more years in office, in no small part due to the overwhelmingly conservative values-oriented Republican Utah voters who support the war in Iraq.

Fair enough.

Instead of young Republican students and newly married young couples going to school in order to follow their parents onto the east benches of the Wasatch Range, they should enlist in the military and (like my brave, young godson) ask to go to Iraq. We're going to be there for a long time. We need bright, young patriots to fight in our re-elected president's war.

Right?

RIGHT?

Yeah right.

But there's no such unanimity when they're asked a more personal question: Would you be willing to put on the uniform and go to fight in Iraq?


In more than a dozen interviews, Republicans in their teens and 20s offered a range of answers. Some have friends in the military in Iraq and are considering enlisting; others said they can better support the war by working politically in the United States; and still others said they think the military doesn't need them because the U.S. presence in Iraq is sufficient.


"Frankly, I want to be a politician. I'd like to survive to see that," said Vivian Lee, 17, a war supporter visiting the convention from Los Angeles,

2. "Frankly, I want to be a politician. I'd like to survive to see that..."

"I'm a chickenhawk, and I certainly approve that message!"
