In light of the increase in deaths of the brave soldiers serving in Iraq, I would encourage President Bush to urge one or both of his daughters to personally take up the cause in that country.

After all, Bush himself said that a military career was the highest calling. If that’s true, then it seems only right that he should send his own flesh and blood to face death in a “war” he has had such a strong hand in creating.

Be a real man for once, George. Put your own skin on the line.
