I finally saw 9/11 yesterday...really good. Too bad it got an R rating though. But I can understand why. I was curious though why Abdul Henderson, the marine who helps Moore attempt to "recruit" congressman's sons into the marines, was still a marine himself if he was so clearly disheartened by his experience in Iraq. But then again I guess you can't just quit the Marines without being dishonorably discharged. Any thoughts?

You're quite right, you can't quit the military...finish your enlistment/comission or you can do enough bad stuff that they kick you out (but then that follows you to any civilian job you apply for). If all else fails, some people actually find ways to get hurt so that they get medically discharged...ahhhh, the dirty little secrets of the military.

Jenn rocks!

:) yeah, i have heard of that... i saw a poll on nbc last night as to wether people thought that movie would affect the election. something like %80 agreed that it would. that's so interesting. it's funny, lots of people think it should have been impartial because it is a documentary... as if they can't have an agenda too! lol

I think most of the servicemen that typically vote republican are disenchanted by Bush but are stuck in the positions they are in by duty and honor. they don't agree but they must carry out the orders. I would guess they will vote for kerry this time around.
