			<description><![CDATA[<p> Why Draft men over 70 years of age<br /><br />Continued below<br /><br />Drafting Guys Over 70.<br /><br />I am over 70 and the Armed Forces thinks I&#x27;m too old to track down terrorists.<br /><br />You can&#x27;t be older than 42 to join the military. They&#x27;ve got the whole thing<br /><br />ass-backwards.<br /><br />Instead of sending 18-year old&#x27;s off to fight, they ought to take us old guys.<br /><br />You shouldn&#x27;t be able to join a military unit until you&#x27;re at least 55.<br /><br />For starters, researchers say 18-year-olds think about sex every 10 seconds.<br /><br />Old guys only think about sex a couple of times a month, leaving us more than 280,000 additional seconds per day to concentrate on the enemy.<br /><br />Young guys haven&#x27;t lived long enough to be cranky,<br /><br />and a cranky soldier is a dangerous soldier. &#x27;My back hurts! I can&#x27;t sleep, I&#x27;m tired and hungry.&#x27; We are bad-tempered and impatient, and maybe letting us kill some one that desperately deserves it, will make us feel better and shut us up for a while.<br /><br />An 18-year-old doesn&#x27;t even like to get up before 10 am. Old guys always get up early to pee, so what the heck. Besides, like I said, I&#x27;m tired and can&#x27;t sleep and since I&#x27;m already up, I may as well be up killing some fanatical son-of-a-guns.<br /><br />If captured, we couldn&#x27;t spill the beans because we&#x27;d forget where we put them.<br /><br />In fact, name, rank, and serial number would be a real brainteaser.<br /><br />Boot camp would be easier for old guys. We&#x27;re used to getting screamed and yelled at and we&#x27;re used to soft food. We&#x27;ve also developed an appreciation for guns.<br /><br />Some of us have been using them for years as an excuse to get out of the house, away from the screaming and yelling.<br /><br />They could lighten up on the obstacle course however.<br /><br />I&#x27;ve been in combat and never saw a single 20-foot wall with rope hanging over the side, nor did I ever do any pushups after completing basic training.<br /><br />Actually, the running part is kind of a waste of energy, too.<br /><br />I&#x27;ve never seen anyone outrun a bullet. (It is like bringing a sword to a gun fight.) That&#x27;s why retreat is not an option.<br /><br />An 18-year-old has the whole world ahead of him.<br /><br />He&#x27;s still learning to shave, to start a conversation with a pretty girl. still hasn&#x27;t figured out that a baseball cap has a brim to shade his eyes, not the back of his head.<br /><br />These are all great reasons to keep our kids at home to learn a little more about life before sending them off into harm&#x27;s way.<br /><br />Let us old guys track down those terrorists. The last thing an enemy would want to see is a couple million pissed off old farts bad attitudes and automatic weapons who know that their best years are already behind them.<br /><br />HEY!! How about recruiting Women over 50... in menopause!!!<br /><br />You think MEN have attitudes?? Ohhhhhhhhhhhh my Heavens!!!<br /><br />**** If nothing else, put them on border patrol.<br /><br />^^^^ Good idea!!!!<br /><br />They&#x27;ll have it secured the first night!<br /><br />... &#x5b;&#xa0;<a href="/blogentry/170649">More</a>&#xa0;&#x5d;</p>]]></description>
