I am for it. Not as staff officers, or as an aid to a general. Make them all a grunt.
Well, that would certainly be likely to change the ease with which congress votes for war but we KNOW that ain't gonna happen.
In many ways I think the best thing for the country would be if Obama attacked without Congressional mandate and Congress worked up the cojones to impeach him, I think it's long overdue we overhaul the way we enter undeclared wars.

Please show where the President is talking about sending anyone into Syria or learn what is actually being proposed.
Please show how bombing Assad will make the rebels better people.
The notion that Iran will become bold if we don't bomb Syria could easily been avoided by not making threats.
We are concerned about the alleged 1400 victims of the gas attack which to date still has not been proven that Assad had a hand in it. Where is the concern when our ally Israel lays waste when they flex their muscle? Oh right, those darned arabs deserved it. In this case we have 2 sides fighting who are pretty much equally bad. No matter which side we bomb we help a bad guy.

There was a very good interview with someone from the London School of Economics and Social Sciences (I think) on Democracy Now earlier this week.
Well worth a listen.
Why their daughters especially to the front line?
You seem to have special problems with women.
You seem to have issues with anyone who you think threatens your womenhood. I made that statement for a reason because apparently the feds want to place women in full gear on the front lines of some future war. Apparently male recruitment for this future war is not going to be enough, so gear up Chielgirl!!
The OP is saying Congressional members should go fight if they want to see a fight.
Our secretary of state should go and fight as well seeing how he has all that wartime experience and a self made millionaire and all.
Never has this nation had a more incompetent and corrupt government.
Both sides too. Look at John McCain the "man" who abandoned his wife after she was involved in disfiguring accident so Mr. Dirtbag could run off and marry hisself a millionaire woman!
On the other hand we got the government we deserve.
