bottom line.. ask the president to start the draft , raise taxes and end our oil dependance. funny how you dont hear that much from the right. Sure, the right listens to the army, who doesn't want a draft. We need highly trained and motivated soldiers, not conscripts. The right have many times criticized Bush for not rallying the country more to the war. The left only wants the draft because they want to bring back the big anti-Vietnam war rallies of their youth. They could care less what happens to the army. As for ending oil dependence, it's not possible without some new technology. Even if we converted to 80% nuclear energy like France has (even if the left hadn't destroyed the nuclear power business in the 1970s) China and India would still need the oil. Are you for building lots more nuclear power plants?
