What are those guys in that video if not chickens? Liars?

What if they think that they can make a bigger contribution to society through other ways...like getting an education. I bet many of them are hoping to get in to politics so they can effect change that way. You don't know what their motivations are. Also, about half of the people that he asked why they didn't enlist were not in good physical shape. That makes them fat, not chickens or liars. We also don't know how many people he spoke to. I bet there were thousands at that convention, how many did we see? How easy would it be for a Liberal Michael Moore wannabe to edit his film the same way his mentor does. Liberal propaganda is still propaganda. Possibly the worst side effect of Moore's popularity is that everybody thinks that they can make a point using slanted editing and sarcasm.
It is not a black and white issue of "if you support the war and are physically able to go, you are a coward to avoid it". It is a lot more complicated than that. Again, to reiterate a point I was getting at earlier in this thread: if a person says they believe global warming is caused by human activity, shoudl I assume they are lying if they drive gasoline powered cars? I mean, surely they would take public transit, or at least drive a hybrid if they were anything other than insincere, hypocrytical liars.
