Another Michael Moore lie,....
The small group of lawmakers who've announced or confirmed that their kids are now serving includes Johnson, Kline and Republican Reps. Todd Akin of Missouri, Duncan Hunter of California, Marilyn Musgrave of Colorado, Ed Schrock of Virginia and Joe Wilson of South Carolina.

For Wilson, three of his sons currently are in the service, though only his oldest son, Alan, would likely be called up.

What number of Congress had kids who were in the military but are no longer in?? You know a 75 year old congressman's kid is now 45-50

I'm sure drid, that you know that during the Civil War one could simply pay the government $300 and not have to go to war. Talk about disenfranchised!

You say the Bush administration are lining their pockets with the spoils of their war. Please provide evidence that will hold up in a court of law to me, and I will gom-by-ah-ya you with genuine Swiss cow bells in the key of C minor.
