Ted, let me put it this way. The brave firefighters and police officers of 9/11 went into burning buildings without waiting for the "rich" to join them. Not only that, but the brave soldiers that volunteered for combat in Iraq did so without waiting for the "rich" to join them.

Saying you won't fight until "rich princesses" like Paris Hilton and the Bush twins join you is one of the stupidest excuses I've ever heard. Why aren't you willing to take up arms before Paris and Barbara ever have to? Just because you think the struggle between rich vs. poor trumps any other concern? It's nothing but pure jealously on your part.

By the way, if you still think it's wrong that the poor fight the rich man's wars, then why were you in support of Afghanistan? How about Kosovo? Or any other war that, say, Clinton started? He seemed to be fine with the notion of sending other kids into harms way, even as his daughter Chelsea was enjoying a private school education.
