Selective Service Form....sigh

Well it came today...my son's Selective Service form. His 18th birthday was Sunday and he received his form in the mail.

The ironic part is that it came with all of his conscientious objector letters written by friends and family.

5. Well so far it is only a piece of paper. As long as GOP is in control

there will be no draft. Even they are smart enough to relize that if they institute a draft they will be out on their ass in a split second...I would venture to say that if Democrats take over there will be no draft either but if a draft ever is reinstituted it will be by Democrats and that is as it should be.
