65. The Dems that are pushing or talking about the draft
are making the point that if the draft is reinstated that no one, no one gets a deferment. I believe that is there point. Another thought and issue, just this morning after seeing the interviews with the family's that died over the weekend a good question might be to ask the media or any newspaper editorial "How many of the families that were in the top 1% of the tax cuts have lost a loved one in the war in Iraq? How many of those top 1% even have family members over in Iraq?" "Who and what are these middle class men and women protecting"? I think that we should be shouting off the roof tops that there should be a "draft" of the family members of Haliburton, KRB, Bechtel, Enron etc, anyone making money off this war should have to put up there own son or daughter up for military duty to "protect this nation", that would put an end to this real fast, or I certainly hope so, no ones sons or daughters are worth the cost of this illegal and greedy war by that sorry SOB (son of Barb)* sitting resident, or should I say AWOL squatter. Sorry about the rant, I have a draft age son in college and seeing the pictures of those service men this morning tore me up.

On the lighter side my friends brought me over a sign for my front door that reads "Attack Democrat Beware"
