In accordance with the Privacy Act of 1974 (5 U.S.C. 522a), as

Guidelines on the Conduct of Matching Programs (54 FR 25818 (June 19,
1989)), and OMB Bulletin 89-22, the following information is provided:
1. Name of participating agencies: The Selective Service System

Service System Act <50 U.S.C. App. 462 (f)> are met.
3. Authority for conducting the matching: Computerized access to
the Selective Service Registrant Registration Records (SSS 10) enables
ED to confirm the registration status of applicants for assistance

and regulations issued under that section. In addition, Section
12(f)(2) of the Military Selective Service System Act specifies that
any person required to present himself for and submit to registration
under Section 3 of the Military Selective Service System Act must file
a statement with the institution of higher education where the person
intends to attend or is attending that he is in compliance with the
Military Selective Service System Act. Furthermore, Section 12(f)(3) of
the Military Selective Service System Act authorizes the Secretary of
Education, in agreement with the Director of the Selective Service, to
prescribe methods for verifying the statements of compliance filed by
students.
Section 484(n) of the HEA <20 U.S.C. 1091(n)>, requires the
Secretary to conduct data base matches with SSS, using common
demographic data elements, to enforce the Selective Service
registration provisions of the Military Selective Service Act <50[br />U.S.C. App. 462(f)], and further states that appropriate confirmation
of a person's shall fulfill the requirement to file a separate
statement of compliance.
4. Categories of records and individuals covered:

2005 or 40 days after copies of the matching agreement are transmitted
simultaneously to the Committee on Government Affairs of the Senate,

in effect for eighteen months unless earlier terminated or modified by
agreement of the parties.
6. Address for receipt of public comments or inquires: Richard S.

2. No this ist he the first step to activate it
my husband (navy vet) and my brother in law (Navy vet and Vietnam Vet) smell it as well.

The story for a June 15 activation was on the AP wire on June 15, for six hours... this is the first wicket...

On the bright side, we tried to tell them, now I don't have to feel respnsible when freeps get pulled in

5. You are correct - this is to see if college loan applicants are registered
What IS happening is military recruitment in high schools unless the parents sign a statement prohibiting their son/daughter from being recruited.

3. Good! Excellent! BRING ON THE DRAFT!
I hope every fucking bible thumper's son and daughter gets drafted. Then there will be less bible thumpers to decide how New York and Los Angeles need to be protected from ourselves.

6. So Will My Sister's Kids
Let's not bring it on, OK?

My sister's kids will get sucked into this monstrosity too,
and she's been opposing the war since before it started,
just as we have.

One of them has some neurological issues that probably won't
get him a deferrment, but would get him killed over there.
He reminds me a lot of me.

There is no such thing as a fair draft. Never has been. Never will be.
The politically-connected will always be safe from stuff like this.
Our pResident himself is a glaring example.

9. I feel for her. I really do.
Don't get me wrong. I have relatives that are of age too. There is always the "Conscientious Objector status". But the right needs to pay IN BLOOD.

7. Is There a "Too Old"?
I'm almost 53 and I don't feel all that safe.

They're already jacking it up to 34 and talking about going at least
up to 45 for "special skills". They have called back IRR people as
old as 67!



PM me if you want one of these bumperstickers.

8. I truly hope so
point is folks we told them, we told the freepers this woudl happen

but bush woudl never do this

One more point... and this is an important one... the SSS laws have not been truly enforced in 20 years.. I mean it.

Why do you think they have an interest in enforcing them all of a sudden? On the face of it this is how, on the surface, this documnent reads... some will tell you this is nothing...

Also remember Bush's freudian slip, about not having a volunteer army during the campaign

Oh and finally, I truly feel for the kids who voted against the chimpster (and whose votes were stolen). I truly feel for the kids who will be pulled into this, except two groups, YOUNG REPUBLICANS, who will do all they can to emmulate their VEEP in having OTHER priorities and I am possitve if tehy are well connected they will have other priorities, and the freeps... as far as I am concerned, they made that bed by their suport... unfortunately I need to sleep in it too.

On the bright side, if there is one... the campuses in some areas will explode once kids realize what this means, and they are bright. It may take for more glaring examples of where this is going, but they will explode... and the other 49% who did not vote, and is far more concerned with Survivor and briney Spears, is in for a rude awakening...

14. Don't Forget the Kids who are Too Young to Vote
But will be old enough to be draft bait within the next four years.

All three of my sister's children are in that category, and I fear
for them especially. My niece can't vote, but she has been actively
opposing the war all along. So has my sister, who is also adamant
that she will not let the Army have her kids no matter what.

And boys and girls the president can't institute a draft--congress has to, and well they may be mostly REP, but it doesn't mean they don't have to answer to constituants...

11. Technically yes and no
Edited on Thu Nov-04-04 03:06 PM by nadinbrzezinski
The way Roosevelt handled it was... executive order with the Hill following...

And they are answearable to consitituents, you'll see, bush just needs to go on the teevee and "explain" to the Murican People why we need a draft, praize jeeezus for our crusade against evildoers all over the world, You truly think our so called "moral majority" will contradict the one appointed by the lord to carry on his plans to speed up the commng of Armagedon?

Sorry to sound flippant, but true believers turn on a dime, and they will even deny he ever said there would be no draft.

Oh an at the top the date of publication is TODAY

13. Ugh...
The republicans won the presidency, the senate, and the house....and my generation loses. I'm 19 and in the middle of college. Although I cannot be drafted due to a 30 db hearing loss (do you want a partially deaf kid on the battlefield?), if this draft comes up as I think it will, I'm going to be watching my generation be shipped off to war and come back in coffins. That's not cool. Not only does my generation have to worry about today's deficits, we have to worry about today's wars.

15. HUGGSS
Edited on Thu Nov-04-04 06:44 PM by nadinbrzezinski
My husband just retired from the Navy, I fear he will be right there with you...

Now my brother in law's generation had to deal wtih Vietnam and yes, deficits...

We will survive this but my question is at what cost?

Oh and if this starts looking like a definite, kid tell your freinds to RUN, not walk, RUN to the Air Force Recriter and voluntarily join... it will be easier, as daftees will end up in the Marines and the Army.

this is the same advise my bro in law is giving his kids, as running to Cnanada is no longer an option... for many reasons.
