15. I would like DU input on this idea
I work with many pro-Bush nuts. Some are draftable age (under 30), some have kids who are of draftable age. I'm considering sending a letter - allegedly from a local Republican-sounding organization - to their home addresses.

Something along the lines of
"George Bush promised not to re-instate the draft. But military commanders say they don't have enough troops for the ongoing War on Terrorism. They estimate at least another 50,000 will be needed in the next year alone.
Help George Bush keep his promise and enlist in the Armed Forces of the United States. With your help, our Leader can keep his word AND we can defeat terrorism."

Put it on some nice letterhead, and enclose a copy of an enlistment form. Include directions to the local recruiting stations.

I'm hoping it might wake some of these people up.
