Personally I thought he was trying to make a point with a 
little bit of humour. I don't think it was meant to be 
taken literally... Basically if the war is so important, 
would you  be willing to send your own kids too? Afterall 
we're supposed to be in this together, right?

Just like he did by reading the patriot act out loud to 
the policy maker circling the capitol in an ice cream 
truck. I thought that was priceless, and at least someone 
had the balls to point out the monstruosity that the 
patriot act really is.
