"the nation must be prepared to conduct a draft"

--Lewis C. Brodsky, director of public and congressional affairs with the Selective Service System

Many people have been wondering if our President has secret plans to reinstate the draft. This website will provide absolute proof that Bush is making plans to reinstate the draft by the middle of 2005.

In the last few months Bush has launched a recruiting drive for people to work on the draft boards around the country, the DefendAmerica government site posted an advert looking for volunteers, but when someone brought this to the attention of the press it was promptly removed, fueling rumours about the possibility of a draft.

There are also CURRENTLY bills in the Senate and in the house that, if passed, will make military service a requirement for all men, women (including college students) between the age of 18 and 25.

Iraq is "slipping out of control" ... like HELLO!!! .....

.......... Hagel and Lugar can go to hell.

They still support Bush.

Until one of those jerks come out and supports Kerry, I'm not interested in their vacant criticisms of that Bush regime.

I love how they are disappointed in the pace of reconstruction in Iraq and that the country is slipping out of our control.

One of these days those morons are going to recognize that we will never be a part of any reconstruction and that civil war is already the case there. We are now engaging in an election year deception. CNN's starting to get the picture. Walter Rodgers points out daily that the situation is chaos.

Like Vietnam, we will leave now or later--but we will leave. The sooner the better. I just wish the country was ready to hear it from Kerry--because that's what, I believe, he wants to say.
