President Bush asked after Webb's son, who's serving in Iraq. ( Read more... )

Psh. Webb is a jackass.

Check the dates his son signed up for the military if you can find it. Then rewrite your story.

Now, going back to what you said. Webb is a jackass for using his son as a political ploy to gather respect. Bush is a jackass for having his son over there in the first place. All the people involved are freaking jackasses, except Webb's son who probably won't hear about this until like, three days from now and it will just an old news blip.

The republicans and the democrats suck.

But that is another rant, for another day...

His son used to be a student at Penn State (he was an Admin. of Justice major, if I recall correctly). I think he left in 2004, during his junior year, to enlist.

So your point is?
