A Good Reason To Stay In

Greyhawk at Mudville Gazette has a piece today on some of the comments coming from National Guard troops who are reenlisting or leaving the service. His favorite, and mine, is as follows (h/t Instapundit):

But the best quote of the piece comes from 1Lt Bruce Bishop, a Salt Lake County firefighter and Afghanistan veteran who's currently deployed to Louisiana. I can hear Dave Letterman introducing this one: The number one reason for staying in the Guard is:

..."because as I look around at the state of this nation and see all of the weak little pampered candy-asses that are whining about this or protesting that, I'd be afraid to leave the fate of this nation entirely up to them."

Good for 1Lt Bishop! I wonder if he was thinking about Wacko Woodstock at the time.
