Happy Thanksgiving.

"Eighth, I ask you: Do you, especially you women, want the government to do all it can to encourage American women to put their full strength at work to support the war effort, and to release men for the front whenever possible. [Is that what you want?]"

Unemployment also helps "to release men for the front." So does unrestricted immigration from Mexico. One good thing about these guest workers is that they are coming here voluntarily at their own expense, rather than being conscripted from recently liberated nations.

The reduction of America's industrial base, therefore, and the government's refusal to halt the flow of illegals from Mexico are part of a comprehensive strategy for the War on Terror.

The outsourcing of software jobs to India etc. and corporate downsizing assure a higher quality of unemployed professionals and middle management will be included in the pool of potential recruits. Now that they have been relieved of their responsibilities in the private sector, they will be excellent raw material for replenishing the officer corps.

Obviously the Bush administration has thought out this whole campaign in the most minute detail.
