They won't need to Reinstate the Draft

[Sandpiper]

The GOP has just passed legislation that will potentially cause 100,000 college kids to lose their pell grants.

If you can't afford to pay for college, what's the last place you can go for money?

With a stroke of the pen, Bush will have created tens of thousands of new recruits.

2. Do you have a link for the pell grant info?

This was my big argument in my anti-Bush tirades and I would love to show some people I was right.

I hope the Kool-Aid drinkers who gave Bush their vote are ready to drink to this. (Well, their kids can always work at Wal-Mart.)

your won't need a draft if you keep the economy in it's crap state.. that too helps the recruiting numbers.

Job secruity.. college funds, insurance are always big pushes for recruiters.
