The Bush twins in the military... isn't this a DUmmie argument? They aren't going to send the Bush girls to Iraq because having them there would further endanger their unit and all American troops there.

Back in WWII Franklin Roosevelt's sons served in the military. You'd think, in the war on terror, the president's children could do the same if they wanted.

The army would never be so stupid as to send Barbara and Jenna Bush to Iraq. They'd make a tempting target for Al Qaeda and would end up endangering their whole unit in the process. There's a few Congressmen in the reserves whose units were called up, but ended up not serving in Iraq because the army deemed it too dangerous. And this is just a Congressman, who is probably unknown outside his district, not the President's daughters.
