2. I believe they are trying to force a drop of honesty out of GOPers
by making them confront the issue before the election.
i don't know that many of them actually support reinstating the draft.

4. But if the GOPers get behind it and it passes it'll make us look bad.
It will make us look like the "War" party I'm afraid.

5. or it will end the war
Dont worry, the dems in congress know what they are doing. they know Bush would never let a draft bill pass before the election, never ever ever.

3. If we are going to fight a war, then the children of the rich should fight
too. I think that was the point of those bills.

6. the draft is slavery
the draft is slavery, the rich wont serve. they will dodge it. when they run out of poor to enlist, they will go after the middle class.
