“Some of the military recruiters [who visit students on high school campuses] aren’t telling the truth about the ways of the military,” said Thompson, a retired United Methodist minister.

I wonder what "ways" this minister has in mind.

Don’t the schools have job fairs or career days and bring in other employers. What jobs are these nutbags offering?

Gee, what a surprise that the United Methodist Church is involved! You could knock me over with a feather!

Membership in the Peace Corps is a show-stopper for enlistment. They know this - that’s why they’re singing up mush-brained liberal kids.

“aren’t telling the truth about the ways of the military”

Oh-no! Theya re on to us. They know of our secret ways!
How did they find out? (snicker)

What could they possible think is going on in the military. Probably one of the most open societies. Under public scrutinay.
When I was in Russia they have hazing, brutality to new drafties so bad that rape and murder are common and suicide is considered routine. This happens in a closed military.

We have one of the most open militaries on Earth and if these people cannot even take the time to understand the militray, they have no right to have access to our young students.

This really p*sses me off, “After several meetings between board members and the peace group, the school board approved a new policy on career counseling that includes this clause: “Other groups who desire to present an alternative to military service are granted equal access.”

What a bunch of weenies this particular school board is made up of. What about a clause that says, “Other groups who desire to present an alternative to (banking) (business) (plumbing) (enter any profession) service are granted equal access.” Liberals suck.
