Reply #40: A new Draft evasion [View All]

With the complicity of well-meaning Dem dupes, it likely will be shrouded in a French style(universal draft, universal availability according to your skills) type of thing that will make it seem there are few fighting positions involved- and those all voluntary! The French loved to tell me how some general loved to have scientists and scholars washing their car for the two years. Slave labor. The GOP will love it.

I hope to God I am not giving the Repukes this idea. Being a French post war policy maybe they won't want to borrow there- but these are the amazing technicolor hypocrites after all.

Either the next calamity or war will jumpstart the draft and hide the fact that it is Bush himself that makes it all but inevitable.

Of course, if smirk manages to win this time, why would he care at all what the hapless US doltish masses think anyway?

They really do not want a large people's army, preferring to herd fighting pros with a bevy of vampirish private corporations, with corporate control of the government leadership. Back to the nineteenth century or the mercantile empires(all defunct) of various European entities, many of whom are now heartily despised by the neocon ingenues.
