What about those who have "better things to do" than defending the country?!

re: All Americans should serve their country's defense for a short period

Yeah, we can call it "Selectric Service"!

Why don't you enlist, go to Iraq, and sit on a land mine?

<<The draft should be reinstated.

It never should have been abolished.>>

Said like one who is safely out of range of being drafted.

If Bush is re-elected you will get your wish, IMO.

All Americans should serve their country's defense for a short period. It will give them perspective and discipline, round them out, and be good for them and the country.

Boy, do I feel sorry for any children you've been talking to:
"Sign-up, Suzy, it'll make a man out of you!"
"Listen, Leroy, if you're really lucky the War on Terrorism will last forever and you'll get to waste a bunch of Muslims; then you'll be well-rounded and have perspective."
