Young Republicans, America Needs You Now!

by Barton Bushfield

Fellow Republicans, I write this because America is in crisis. The war in Iraq is dragging. The armed services can't meet their already-lowered recruitment goals. The president's competency is under attack by the Democrats, and polls show dwindling support for the war.

It's time Republicans started doing more than just talk about the war. That's why I'm supporting Operation Yellow Elephant. This operation’s goal is to get all young Republicans, particularly those in college, who voted for George Bush and who support the war to join the armed services today!

I don't understand how any healthy young Republican can be attending college while America is under attack. You can't spread democracy by taking an English exam.

So this is what Operation Yellow Elephant asks of you: Bush voters, war supporters — put your ass where your mouth is. Put up or shut up. Stop what you're doing and enlist right now! I know you've purposefully kept those Army positions vacant so the poor minorities in this country have a way to pay for college, and that's admirable of you, but now it's time to fill the empty ranks with good ol' all-American Republicans!

Operation Yellow Elephant is helping the Army reach its recruiting goals. We've asked the College Republican National Committee to put recruiting banner's on their website and brochures. So far they have refused. I ask my fellow Republicans, how can the American people be expected to support a war if the supporters themselves refuse to fight? That's why I implore all young Republicans in college to enlist today. Support war, support your president!

But we must do more than join the Army, Navy or Marines. We must convince other war supporters to do their share as well. Therefore, I ask you to call the College Republican National Committee at (888) 765-3564 and tell them to put an Army recruiting banner on their site and to enlist as well. Call the organizers of the Young Republicans National Convention at 775-741-4430. Tell them it’s time their members put their lives on the line for George W. Visit your local college and ask the members of any Republican club to put down the books and pick up a rifle. Do it for America!
