Millitary increasing their PR campaign
This morning while driving to work on the interstate I saw a semi-truck and it had a picture of a race car and it said NAVY on it. I assume that the race car was inside.

This is in a Southern NASCAR state. I thought to myself wow! if only universities had money like that or the Peace Corps.

The PR campaign is in full swing parents.

2. Oh yeah, these Army commercials on television about "I found someone
to pay my was through college" are really laughable. They need to tack on the rest of the sentence "if I live through Iraq" to be honest.

And I notice that it was a black kid talking to his mother. Funny, I don't think I'll ever see an upper-class white kid holding the same conversation with a parent, even if it's is just catapulted propaganda.

3. I believe that kid also says, "It's time for me to be the man."

And what's manly about becoming underequipped slave-wage hired muscle for a greedy, power-mad deserter of a commander-in-chief?
