GUEST: We're fighting two unpopular wars. FOX NEWS: There must be SOME reason, though, why recruiting is so low. GUEST: I just told you, two unpopular wars and a policy that keeps soldiers away from home for fifteen month tours.

No one wants to sign up to fight in a war they don't believe in for unprecedented tour durations. FOX NEWS: Well, I guess the reasons for the recruiting problem will just have to remain a mystery.
