Here are two quotes from my local newspaper. I don't think I have to say much more except that I'll bet this STILL doesn't include the Bush twins or anyone else connected to the administration or Congress.
"KABUL, Afghanistan (AP) - Fierce fighting in recent months has devastated the ranks of the Taliban, prompting the rebels to recruit children and force some families to provide one son to fight with them, a U.S. commander said Saturday."
"The U.S. Army, stung by recruiting shortfalls caused by the Iraq war, has raised the maximum age for new recruits for the part-time Army Reserve and National Guard by five years to 39, officials said on Monday. The Army said the move, a three-year experiment, will add about 22 million people to the pool of those eligible to serve, from about 60 million now."
