Senate OKs 20,000 More Troops, But Who's Gonna Sign Up?

That's a very legitimate question. Enlistment is low and getting lower, bad enough that older troops are being involuntarily called back to duty and those set to retire are being forced to stay.

Note, too, in this story that the Senate did it AGAINST the president's vehement disapproval. Bush is pushing the troops well past the breaking point because he doesn't want to suffer greater disapproval.
