CD 16 Congress Candidates Refuse Military Service
Here is an interesting aspect of the current CD 16 congressional race. There are three young Republican males running to represent the central valley in Congress. Yet, none of these men were willing to fight for our country in military active duty, to my knowledge. Whelan, the youngest at age 28, recently graduated from law school and has no history of military service or any community service. The other two Republican candidates, Garcia and Johnny Techarra, have also rejected military service eventhough they were the perfect age for enlistment during the past ten years. Our soldiers sacrifice a lot and many pay the ultimate price of a grueling death in a foreign country. Are these ambitious candidates too good to fight for our American freedom? Are these guys the type of people we want leading our country? President Bush, a Republican started the war in the Middle East. As Republicans who say they support Bush, shouldn't these candidates volunteer to win the war and protect our country by enlisting in the military?
