Now that Bush made it past Nov. 2nd, how do you interpret this:

[Bush_Eats_Beef]

...from MSNBC. Draft right around the corner, perhaps?

1. Run . . . Run for Canada !!!! n/t

[babylonsister]

2. They have been saying that

since the get-go. But NO ONE listened.

[blackangrydem]

3. I wonder if we'll be able to expand the military

by the recommended number (40-80K) without a draft? I wonder if there is any way to predict this with a poll or something. Some combination of benefits or incentives must be implemented to get enough volunteers.

I'd hate to see a lowering of entrance standards but I'll bet waiving the HS diploma requirement is an option being considered.

11. join the army...for college money

one of the things that ** did this past week was to cut the college pell grant money for students...maybe they are making it financially impossible to go to college unless you sign up for the military..

[blackangrydem]

12. I don't think 40K are willing to risk their life for

tuition money.

[nadinbrzezinski]

4. Generals have been askin gfor troops since word go

but I guess paul wolfowits and donald rumsfeld truly know better

But yes,

left, left, left right left

Remeber, Bush's freudian slip, there will be no volunterer military? For once he told the truth and nobody believed him

5. Send Young Republicans First

7. No he's done that before...

"Our enemies are innovative and resourceful, and so are we. They never stop looking for ways to harm our country and it's people, and neither do we." - 08/04

[Laelth]

8. Correction:

Third time he's told the truth. This was the second time:

"Our enemies never stop thinking about new ways to harm our country and our people - and neither do we."

And this was the first time:

"If this were a dictatorship, it would be a heck of a lot easier, just so long as I'm the dictator."

The writing has always been on the wall. Caveat emptor!

6. Of course they won't *call* it the 'draft' or the 'selective service'...

So what will it be called?

The "Liberation Lottery"?

The "Freedom March Mandate"?

Any Ideas?

[Contrary1]

10. The Patriot Action Bill

9. Softening up the targets
