My personal view is that the desire to join any form of military should automatically proclude you from being able to join.
As for the American Military machine!?!?! I'll start supporting them when it's a conflict that directly theatens them, and is not based on oil, religion or with nations that they themselves previously trained and armed. As the late George Carlin put it so eloquently "America is a nation of bullies that just go around arming the world and bombing the shit out of little brown countries!"
Fingers crossed that Obama and the Democrats can clean up some of the shit storm left behind by Cheney and Rumsfeld.
And thats my "two cents"
(PS - Glad to read that you re-considered Marine. I guess they dont totally brainwash you guys after all!)
