NEO COUNTER-CULTURE: Draft will rock American youth
In My political Sci class the professor asked who would dodge if they reinstated the draft. Half the hands went up. If this is the feeling of American youth in general then we are in for another counter culture folks. Most of the class doesnt even know why were there (Except the "Conservative" kids, whose reasoning changes with the prevailing winds). Radicalism will be the song of the day. Were in for a ride!

11. What's Kerry going to do?
If the U.N. won't help, it is then either pull the troops out again or revise the draft. Those are the only 2 options. Either way it's bad. And Kerry would have to be the fall guy for all of it. That's if the United Nations doesn't come in to help.

12. I agree.......Kerry will be screwed if he drafts
Iraq is a massive mistake and we shouldn't be there. No matter when we leave the end result will be the same. Bloody chaos. If we pull out sooner than later we might avoid having a generation of radicalised, messed up youth.

Reeducation camps are in order.

Time to revolutionize the American madrasas.

6. unfortunately
it's generally not the kids in college who end up drafted...if you asked this question to a broader group of people you might be disenchanted with the numbers of "if the army needs more people they'll have to bring back the draft" "the US is fighting for freedom" blah blah blah

7. In an unjust war people will refuse
Kids will stand up rather than die. Especially when they see how messed up the ones coming back are. My son is already talking about going to Costa Rica.

8. Here's the song of the day
THE IRAQNAM RAG

Give me an O
Give me an I
Give me an L
What's that spell?
What's that spell?
What's that spell?

OIL! OIL! OIIIIIILLL!!!

Well, come on all you real young men
That son of a Bush needs your help again.
He's got himself in a terrorist jam
Way over yonder in Iraqnam
So put down your books and pick up a gun,
We're gonna have a whole lotta fun!

And it's one, two, three --
It’s OIL we’re fighting for!
That’s why we hadda get Saddam,
Next stop is Iraqnam;
And it's five, six, seven,
Open up the pearly gates,
Well the media don’t wonder why,
Whoopee! we're all gonna die.

If you don’t know, here’s the PNAC Plan:
Lose Osama in Afghanistan,
Then take over in Iraqnam
You we need the gas for our mini-vans.
Uzbekistan, Tajikistan,
There you got the PNAC Plan!

And it's one, two, three --
It’s OIL we’re fighting for!
That’s why we hadda get Saddam,
Next stop is Iraqnam;
And it's five, six, seven,
Open up the pearly gates,
Well the media don’t wonder why,
Whoopee! we're all gonna die.

Well, come on PNAC, let's move fast;
Your big chance has come at last.
Our need for oil's just increased,
I hear they got some in the Middle East.
We’re gonna make sure, it’s for certain
The world’s safe for Halliburton!

And it's one, two, three --
It’s OIL we’re fighting for!
That’s why we hadda get Saddam,
Next stop is Iraqnam;
And it's five, six, seven,
Open up the pearly gates,
Well the media don’t wonder why,
Whoopee! we're all gonna die.

Well come on soccer moms throughout the land,
Pack your kids off to Iraqnam!
Come on fathers, don't hesitate,
Send your kids off before it's too late.
Be the first one on your block
To have your kid come home in a box.

And it's one, two, three --
It’s OIL we’re fighting for!
That’s why we hadda get Saddam,
Next stop is Iraqnam;
And it's five, six, seven,
Open up the pearly gates,
Well the media don’t wonder why,
Whoopee! we're all gonna die.

Come on now people! There’s something like 42,000 of you DUers out there and if you really want to end this war you’re going to have sing louder than that! Are you ready?

And it's one, two, three,
It’s OIL we’re fighting for!
That’s why we hadda get Saddam,
Next stop is Iraqnam;
And it's five, six, seven,
Open up the pearly gates,
Well the media don’t wonder why,
Whoopee! we're all gonna die!!

for East COast rallies.

I also have others that are very funny.
