Chickenhawks cry about being asked to enlist
Las Vegas, Nevada–YRNC 2005 Chairman Nathan Taylor has been responding to attacks by leftists who threaten protests at the 2005 Young Republican Convention.
“In recent weeks I have received numerous e-mails from leftist groups bent on infiltrating the Convention and protesting the appearance of veterans of the War on Terror. We will not allow these cowards to dishonor our servicemen,” stated Taylor.
“The childish insults and threatened protests of these leftists reveal ignorance of, and disrespect for, the sacrifice borne by many hosted by the Convention,” Taylor continued. “Most of our members either serve, have served, or plan to serve in the United States Armed Forces, or have participated in events or projects supporting the United States Armed Forces. We will not be intimidated.’
Nathan, Nathan, Nathan. We aren’t calling the soldiers cowards, nor are we dishonoring them. In fact, we think it’d be an excellent boost to your honor to become one. Having participated in events supporting the Armed Forces just isn’t enough anymore– how about participating in the Armed Forces itself?
