    Not the royal we...

    Added BYU freshman Jaren Olsen: "He's strong, and he doesn't waver. I like that he is for the family, that marriage should only be between a man and woman. And the war, we need to finish what we started."

    Note to Jaren: what's with the "we"? Has the Army started a new boot camp at BYU? Oh, right. I always forget that "we" actually means "anyone but me" in the context of Yellow Elephants and the Iraq war. Speaking as a veteran, I can say that we are not amused by your hypocracy.
