They better start recruiting faster, because Dusty says Obama has less than ten days until he's voted out of office, and then 2 1/2 months left in office. Unless...

231 isn't going to cut it, even if they give them those nifty DHS "fighting vehicles". Of course, this could be an updated version of Lincoln's "Anaconda Plan" since the recruits are in Vicksburg!

I also take exception to this statement in the linked article:

Quote:
The first problem one finds with this ‘new army’ is the fact that they are mere children. Yes, 18 is generally the legal age a person can sign a contract, join the military or be tried as an adult. But ask any parent - an 18, 20 or even a 24 year-old is still a naïve, readily-influenced kid.
the bolding is mine

Shit, we had better be careful or they'll start recruiting our 18x prospects out from under our noses.
