Marion!


I
Here's why I picked this one:
First, Many Canadians believe that Iraq was not responsible for the attacks of September 11, 2001
Secondly, though I am not an American, this war affects Canadians, and indeed all non Americans too.

And Bush's conduct in his life has not been worthy of a leader.
Bush's daddy got him into the reserve forces instead of allowing him to risk being sent to Vietnam.

I'll give some examples of courage , honor and duty, for the sake of comparison.

(My cousin is an American citizen in the reserves.
He has been given notice that he will likely be going to Iraq soon.
He's fifty years old.
Let's send the Bush twins instead. They are young and likely more fit than he is.


Another cousin age 62,(dual citizen: Canadian\ American)and brother to the cousin above, served two tours in Vietnam.
My father, Uncle Stan, Uncle Alec, and my father in law John all served in the Canadian Army overseas in WW2. They didn't avoid their duty when drafted.

So, Mr. Bush please lead by example.
Encourage your daughters to enlist.

And that's why my sign will be:

"When are your kids enlisting?"
