That is why BushCo won't start it up. The MSM doesn't' help when they sugar coat everything..and refuse to report on incidents like the one on this post..they are in bed with BushCo and I hope they end up in the same place in hell as he does. I refuse to give up hope..when I do I am toast.. Thank you so much for stopping by and giving us your pov..I heart you for it! ;) I agree JR that the draft would bring millions over to ‘our side’.

The people who enlist in the Armed Forces are mostly from disadvantaged backgrounds who see the military as a way to crawl out of the hole of poverty and dead-endedness that they grew up in (and I know precisely of what I speak, having been one of those people.) Joe and Jane Suburbia frankly do not give a damn how many of "those" people get blown up in Iraq, because they live in a socioeconomic strata that never brings them into contact with the polite people. In addition, Chimpy gets Beijing to finance his insanity, meaning that the yellow-magnet suburban types don't even feel any of THAT pain. You want this thing to end? Demand a return to the military draft, so Chip and Buffy's mom and dad get to worry right along with the mothers and fathers of the volunteers. Insist that the damn thing be paid for by enacting a tax on what we went there for-gasoline. Then watch how fast the yellow-magnet types turn into peaceniks.
