Interesting idea on a bill for pulling out the National Guard from Iraq

The National Guard has absolutely NO business in combat OVERSEAS. Their function is to protect us here. And if the terrorist attack comes, as Chertoff said it would this summer (or at least his gut said - and anyone from Colbert Nation knows how important that is), then we need our Guard here - in the United States protecting us.

1. Bush will hire Blackwater for that. And then those goons will round us up
and put us in the detention camps that have been built all around the country.

2. Can't the states just pull them out anytime?
I mean, if the Constitution were in effect.
