Message: Entry: Like Lambs Led to the Slaughter Link: http://www.takimag.com/blogs/article/like_lambs_led_to_the_slaughter#2430 Post contents: I tried to get into the National Guard six years ago, and wasn't admitted because of numerous health issues. When the tally got to a dozen waivers and several more to go, I parted ways with the helpful and friendly recruiter. Shortly after that, I was introduced to the works of Wendell Berry, switched off Hannity and Rush, and have now found my way to the small but growing ranks of Paleoconservatism. Thank God for all those broken bones and visits to the doctor! The way these wars are going I'm sure I'd qualify today, and I'm still likely to get drafted when we storm the sands of Iran. The battle involved in being a vocal opponent of Bush and his ilk rouses the spirit that had me in a recruiters office in the first place. I wanted to serve - now I am. Sent at: 2008 09 08
