No Child Gets Left Behind!

There's no question about it white liberals love to talk Africa, and why not? Its a continent torn apart by war, famine, disease, and corruption. None of which they can see so they feel plenty good about liking a pic on Facebook and occasionally sending money. Now one big issue that comes up when overly educated pseudo-liberals talk Africa is child soldiers. They can't stand the idea of 12 year olds marauding around with assault riffles, and that makes sense. Its terrible to think about, no child should be put in that situation, but when are they when it comes to our own children? The American military makes no secret about it they want your kids. They recruit them in their schools, they broadcast obscene propaganda with messages like "America's navy a global force for good", and they work with their partners to craft media to make war look glamorous and entertaining. So why is it ok for America's military to go to 16,17, and 18 year olds put a gun in their hand and send them to kill other children? I know 18 is technically an "adult" but these people just got done with prom now they're on their way to Iraq? And there's hardly a word about this from the same elitist liberals who cry and cry about the child soldiers forced to serve mean ol warlords in Africa. Could it be because the children that become soldiers here are sent to wars that keep their gas prices relatively low? Or is it because they are conditioned to hate the poor here? Do they see the poor as so stupid that a job involving toting an assault rifle around the desert as a good opportunity for them? Of course not for their own children they have to go to college and become accountants the army is too dangerous for them!
