Steven King joins left wing loonies

Apparently Steven King has not the slightest clue how the Military screens it's candidates. The test I took when I joined was called the ASVAB, or the Armed Services Vocational Aptitude Battery. You had to be able to read, and comprehend, at a high school level to pass it. You had to have math knowledge, and some engineering knowledge would be helpful. The test determined if you could join, and if you could, what jobs you were qualified for.

Steven King says if you can read, you can walk into a job, and if you can't, you go into the Army, Iraq.

It's a shame that Mr. King has been too busy writing asinine horror books instead of taking a day or two to talk to the folks in Uniform, who I hope stop buying his books. Jackass.
