Bush determined to stay in Iraq; Still will NOT send twins to war
Or the very service-ready nephew George P. Why do the Bush kids hate America?

1. It's not a question of them being sent
They're over 18--how could they be "sent" unless Georgie threatened to cut them off financially? I know you can enlist at age 17 with a parent's permission. But at age 18, you're allegedly able to figure out for yourself if a war is worth volunteering to fight. Clearly, the twins don't see the Iraq occupation that way...which in a way is even worse!

2. why would his twins go?
The army is only for middle class kids who want to pay for college and poor kids with no other alternative. They are rich and fabulous..they can sit back drinking rum and cokes and hang with Paris Hilton.

3. and wait for the estate tax cuts to be extended
The Bush's don't do "war". That's for the poor kids who need means to go to college.

They risk dying for an opportunity for an education, the rich kids think that's fair. Someone's got to go to war.
