Get ready for Michael Medved tomorrow: Good News re: Recruiting
He was giving some hints that tomorrow he'll talk about the "good news" in military recruitment (that it's up).


What I'm sure he'll gloss over are:

1) Huge financial incentives to get people to enlist.
2) Number of new recruits scoring on the lowest end of the aptitude test have TRIPLED.
3) Veterans of combat are coming home to bills for equipment used/destroyed in Iraq as well as trouble getting medical bills covered.

4. A bad movie critic at that and someone who makes me ashamed of being
a Jew. Like Lewis "beastality pedaphilia laced porno novel writter" Libby.

5. wonder if it's UP in all branches
or just the Air Force and Navy. The Army and Marines numbers have not been UP. And they're the branches with the casualties in Iraq.
