It's up to you not to heed the call up

Watch this video and spread it to your blogs if you so desire. A huge pile of thanks go out to The Hermit and this brave smart soldier for getting it out.

As I watched it The Clash song The Call Up was playing in my head.

Ironic how Bush joined the Guard to avoid the draft and yet the Guard gets sent to a war he started.

Great god almighty, that is ironic! I hadn't thiought of that!

In the meantime, the Guard is not available to do what it's supposed to be doing here-- helping with disasters like Katrina.

Great Clash song, from a great Clash album.

I'm reading "Redemption Song," a bio of joe Strummer right now. A friend of mine met Joe at a music festival in Northern California just a few months before Joe died. Strummer was hanging out with fans, talking to them. My friend bought him a beer, and got him to sign a poster for me. It's one of my prized possessions.

Hey I love that kind of stuff! These are really brave soldiers who take a stand and say no to this dumbass war!

PS Thanks for adding me to your blogroll! I was just going to ask for link-trades, anyway!
