Drafting Men's Over 60

Sounds right to me.

Over 60, the Armed Forces thinks you're too old to track down terrorists. You can't be older than 42 to join the military.

They've got the whole thing backwards. Instead of sending 18-year old's off to fight, they ought to take old guys. You shouldn't be able to join a military unit until you're at least 35.

For starters: Researchers say 18-year-old's think about sex every 10 seconds. Old guys only think about sex a couple of times a day (if that), leaving them more than 28,000 additional seconds per day to concentrate on the enemy.

Young guys haven't lived long enough to be cranky, and a cranky soldier is  dangerous. 'Their back hurts! they can't sleep, their tired and hungry', they are impatient and maybe letting them  kill some people that desperately deserves it will make them feel better and shut them up for a while.

An 18-year-old doesn't even like to get up before 10 a.m. Old guys always get up early to pee so hey. Besides, like I said, 'they're tired and can't sleep and since they're already up, they may as well be up killing some fanatic.

If captured they couldn't spill the beans because they'd forget where they put them. In fact, name, rank, and serial number would be a real brainteaser for them..

Boot camp would be easier for old guys. They're used to getting screamed and yelled at and they're used to soft food. They've also developed an appreciation for guns. They've been using them for years as an excuse to get out of the house, away from the screaming and yelling.

They could lighten up on the obstacle course however. My husband has been in combat and he said that he didn't see a single 20-foot wall with rope hanging over the side, nor did he ever do any push ups after completing basic training.

Actually, the running part is kind of a waste of energy, too. I've never seen anyone able to outrun a bullet.

An 18-year-old has the whole world ahead of him. He's still learning to shave, to start up a conversation with a pretty girl. He still hasn't figured out that a baseball cap has a brim to shade his eyes, not the back of his head.

These are all great reasons to keep our kids at home to learn a little more about life before sending them off into harm's way.

Let the old guys track down those dirty rotten coward terrorists. The last thing an enemy would want to see is a couple of million old dudes with attitudes and automatic weapons who know that their best years are already behind them.

How about recruiting Women over 50 too....in menopause! You think Men have attitudes! If nothing else, put them on border patrol.... They'll have it secured the first night!
