Interesting... That would mean he would have to run for office in al Qaeda, given that they're the ones that started the war and wars only happen as a result of the actions of those that start them and those that appease them.

When Johnny comes marching home, I hope he's replaced by a Bushbot.

Otherwise they're likely to call the poor bastard back for yet another tour.

Hmm... That could be the non sequitur of the day.

Now by that I mean to say your statement is absurd. It advances a premise than offers a conclusion wholly detached from the founding premise.

One presumes by the ad hom "Bush-Bot" you mean to say someone that supports the war... and then you express a wish that the soldier (who volunteered to serve in the war, an action which pretty declares some measure of support...) upon his return, should 'become a bush-bot' so as to reduce the chances that he might have to serve another tour...

Now as an American Soldier, he clearly already supports the war, as a bush-bot, he already supports the war... how does being a bush-bot preclude his having to serve exactly?

Anything you could add would be appreciated, despite the high potential that it will likely be less than helpful.

They started the war in Afghanistan, not the war in Iraq. One is a righteous necessary war (Afghanistan), the other (Iraq) a war of opportunity/choice.

Two different wars.
