Young Republicans Love the War

As long as they don't have to fight it.

In more than a dozen interviews, Republicans in their teens and 20s offered a range of answers. Some have friends in the military in Iraq and are considering enlisting; others said they can better support the war by working politically in the United States; and still others said they think the military doesn't need them because the U.S. presence in Iraq is sufficient.


"Frankly, I want to be a politician. I'd like to survive to see that," said Vivian Lee, 17, a war supporter visiting the convention from Los Angeles.

I'm sure at least one or two of the nearly 1,000 dead American soldiers had plans they would have liked to survived to see, too, you little shit.
