All this Minutemen stuff has got me thinking. I know how to secure

the border, and give much needed relief to our troops in Iraq.


Lets have the Government announce that we will indeed be putting troops on the border. National Guard.

But, we currently have too few troops here at home to do it, so we will need people to enlist.

That's why we will call for "patriots" all over this nation to enlist in the National Guard to protect our borders, so we can put there right there on the front lines.

Surely these minutemen would enlist, and who knows how many other rightwingers who were too cowardly and chickenshit to join the armed forces.


Once they all sign up, we ship them off to Iraq to relieve some of our troops who are currently over there, and give them the duty of securing our borders.


What do you think?


(No, I am not interested in debating whether we need troops on the border or not. My point is, if its gonna happen, how bout we do it this way?)

1. National Guard

Sounds right to me. The minutemen are not only right wingers but lots of Dems too. I say it sounds like a good idea.

2. I'm just thinking, if these people are so itching to defend America

why not do it where it really counts?

3. The last time we tried that 3 US Marines shot and killed a 17

year old American citizen shepherd because he was shooting at rabbits with his 22. Not a good idea, military people are about combat and are not policemen or security guards - what they don't understand they kill.
