If Bush had called up draftees for Iraq, It would have been much harder to have done it.

I would like to see a survey asking whether advocates of the Iraq war would have had the same appetite for it had they a family member on the line to go. Of course, the results to a question like that wouldn't be valid, but it would still be interesting.

Agree with that, Derek and LB...But the way things are going, it won't matter. The Democrats who are calling for Rumsfeld's resignation, not caring to even think that there are over 2,500,000 people in the Department of Defense, thousands of investigations, 3000 courts martial, a War on Terrorism, (no matter what the Democrats would like us to think) and all the etcs.

It won't matter, because things are so politicized now, that if (and perhaps if) we are hit again, we will all be dead, or very ill with nuclear or biological poisoning. Any of those who live, will automatically come to understand that we are indeed ALL are at war against these murderers.
