Oh man...I thought this would happen eventually.

Im sure everyone here will pray for your safety...and hopefully no one will want you dead...

By the way will you be able to give us information on where you'll be going and what you will be doing?

Also, this may be a little late to bring this up, but though I know your in the Armed Forces what branch are you in?

...and like all things on the DN I must make this funny...I hope this doesnt offend anyone.

Not to disrespect them, but you know those guys beheaded in Iraq? Well if your gonna go WC you should wear that beheaded duck shirt to advertise for Dink Smallwood. If you get captured and beheaded dont you think it would be completely appropriate?

Sincerely,

Good luck, I hope you can get back home quick... although that seems unlikely, as Kerry's master plan for Iraq is "get other countries to help us".

Of course, I can't think of anything better than Kerry's plan, but that doesn't mean that in your shoes I would feel happy moving to Iraq for several months.

15 things I would do if I was president:

1) Stop the war: it's kind of pointless. We need to focus on our OWN country before we focus on others.

2) Pro-abortion: The child doesn't know it's alive. How would it hurt to kill it?

3) Remove ban on fabulous marriages: I could care less what people do with themselves.

4) Legalize marijuana: As long as people aren't selling this stuff to kids or aren't smoking in public, let them do what they want. If they die, it's their fault.

5) Increase the driving age: We have way too many accidents with 16-year-olds.

6) Get rid of the yellow light at intersections: I don't understand this crap. My driving test said yellow means stop. I asked what red meant then after, and they said stop. So, if they both mean stop, why have two? Just make the red light longer.

7) Remove harsh censorship on TV shows: Kids need to be exposed to the world earlier in their lives. Such censorship doesn't exist in Europe, and I don't think it needs to exist here.

8) Get rid of the RIAA: They rip artists off and try to stop Internet sharing, despite the fact that such sharing increases their profits. They need to be repurposed.

9) Readily-Available condoms: That's right. Kids will explore their sexuality one time or another, and why make it harder by having to talk to someone to buy condoms? Just make machines on the street corner or something.

10) Restructure police departments: Police need to focus on real crimes, not give tickets for someone who goes just a bit too fast. As long as it isn't a ridiculous speed, I don't see a problem.

11) Stem cell research: A very important part, I believe this would open up new areas of science and medicine.

12) Manditory schooling: You can't drop out when you're 16. If you don't get through in time, you take it until you do. And pass with B's or better (C's or better in advanced classes).

13) Close the borders to Mexico: Yes, too many here. Bush needs to straighten up and realize that they don't really help our country (and they certainly hurt our economy).

14) Child birth limit: You get 4 kids. Maximum. That's it. Any more would be aborted.

15) Suicide: Make it legal (and I don't understand why it is illegal now - what would they do?). And if people in prisons want to kill themselves, let them. Give them a knife on the wall and check that its there before they leave the cell. More space for the next people.

"9) Readily-Available condoms: That's right. Kids will explore their sexuality one time or another, and why make it harder by having to talk to someone to buy condoms? Just make machines on the street corner or something."

Uh. It's not that tough to acquire condoms. I can think of three locally-available options off the top of my head:

1. Use condom vending machines in public restrooms (typically located in gas station restrooms). 75 cents for a rubber seems a bit steep to me, but it's not as though I need to screw someone.

2. Get 'em at a place like Wal-Mart, or.. um.. Wal-Mart. (Sadly, there are no Wally World competitors here.) This may take a bit more.. confidence, I guess, but it can be done.

3. Go to the health department and ask for the "brown bag special." You get about 20 condoms for free. May be embarassing as well, but it's certainly cheap.

11:18pm East Coast time...the Vault Dweller is on the DN and notices a large amount of responses to WC's thread about him going on active duty and thinks how nice it is they all are wishing him luck. So he shows up to find that...

...more than half the posts dont even mention anything to WC?! I mean I like your people's opinion, but shouldnt you be giving WC some much needed credit for what he's gonna do?

However, I need to admit that I am in COMPLETE agreement with everything Merlin said...their all completely logical and its just a dang shame intellectuals never get into office.

I never agree with Merlin. Women should be Presidents, and then there would be no wars. And I did throw a wish to WC that maybe the war would be over by then.

Women do take to understanding others better than men...men usually kill others!

I suppose since politics is nothing, but negotiation women would of course be better.

Of course that could lead to a nightmare world where women decide what to do and men do it. Essentially a society of masters and slaves...

Im scaring myself!

In response to what merlin said about legalizing suicide, I strongly disagree. Many feel that when they reach a point where they would ate,pt suicide that things can't get any better, but they do, almost always. Ask almost anyone sho has atempted suicide, or someone has had someone stop them from commiting suicide, if they are glad that they hadn't killed themselves.

Hey, good luck WC, give 'em hell! But it's been all over the news here that George Bush is pledging to bring home many, many of your troops (from all countries, not just Iraq)... and then he sends WC into battle?

Hmm...

Lol, last thing I expected was this. There are quite a few silly things you can do when you're drunk and you wouldn't normally have the wits to do. My favorite has been when I once bought a packet of condoms and a bag of candy from a gas station. The guy behind the counter stared at me a bit weird.. Gosh I laughed my ass off when I cleared up

What's that called when they kill you for mercy? that should be allowed. It also doesn't matter whether suicide is or is not allowed since it's physically a very darn easy thing to make. As for many of merlin's other opinions, I disagree with them. mind your own fudgeing business attitude won't work with large amounts of people.

Well, I live in a small town. People know almost everyone. So, one day my mom could meet the woman from the shop and the woman goes: "Now I remember, it was your son who came to the store drunk and bought a packet of condoms!" Now that's what I would call embarrasing...
