America- Nearing a Draft?
« on: December 26, 2006, 01:19:52 PM »
So, what do you guys think?  Expound, rant, etc.  I know nothing, but I'm curious as to what you wise people have to say.
it is well known that PMS Elle is evil.
I think you'd fit in a 12" or at least a 16" firework mortar
You win this thread because that's most unsettling to even think about.

No, you probably aren't near a draft. That would turn the opinion even more against Bush.

It'd be nice to get an excuse to die.
And as always, these are simply my worthless opinions.
Reverence is fine, Sanctity is silly.
We're all fucked, it helps to remember that.

Why would I give a fuck?  Money aint my business anymore.

He wouldn't fucking dare. There are too many who know exploitable ways through his security. But, beware, his party may have lost some power in the recent election, but lame does not mean dead. He can still do plenty of damage to our freedoms.
Jimi Hendrix: When the power of love overcomes the love of power the world will know peace. 

Ghandi: Live as if you were to die tomorrow. Learn as if you were to live forever.

The end result of life's daily pain and suffering, trials and failures, tears and laughter, readings and listenings is an accumulation of wisdom in its purest form.

A draft would tank Bush's already low popularity. It would make it impossible for him to get any co-operation from congress.

A draft would be political poison for any politician.  Especially as it is obvious that many a politicians child in the past managed to dodge the draft, like Shrub.  Listen to the excuses that Big Dick Cheney and his rich cronies used to dodge the draft in his day.  There's too much hypocrisy involved.  "A rich man's war, but a poor man's fight."

Fortunately, if I'm wrong, I'm way too old to be drafted, but, it hasn't stopped the army and air force from trying to recruit me for the medical military. ::)

I sure hope not. If I got drafted, I'd be fucked. I would try to dodge it, and if that wasn't possible, I'd go to jail. I'd also have doctors write notes saying I'm not mentally stable enough to go, etc.  There is NO WAY I would go.

Hey, QC, if we both get drafted, maybe we can get together and act like a couple of nutcases and drive the anal retentive bureaucrats crazy!  That would be fun! :eyebrows:
