Its winter, the birds have all flown south, all but one. One little bird that waited too long. As it flew to catch it's buddies it got icicles on its wings and fell to the ground. The bird then saw a nice looking branch at the top of a nearby tree and it said to a nearby cow, 'I want to reach that top branch but I don’t have then energy to fly up, can you help?' The cow said, 'Here, eat some of my poop it'll fuel you to climb up the tree.' The little bird said, 'Thanks!' and had some of the cow poop. The bird flew up to the first branch of the tree and rested, then the next day flew to the next branch, until finally the bird reached the top branch. Then the farmer came out with a shotgun...

The moral of the story is, bullshit may get you to the top, but it wont keep you there.

screw that. i say when we all get drafted we all take our arms that we receive and go on strike. if most men did it then we would have no one to fight against, and the US would be helpless. Imagine millions of american men with AK's with no one to fight against cause everyone revolted. The US would give up

silly americans, don't you remember all the extra border security to 'protect you' from Bin Laden? yeah well it also keeps you from draft dodging to canada. Besides, why would you want to avoid a draft? As I remember, most yanks on this board were all for the war just last year...

its not world war three. its the fact that there have been soldiers there over a year and since other countries are starting to pull out we haveto put more in and still rotate out. so its kinda of hectic i bet. i dont think it will happen though.

based on what i saw on cnn a few weeks, there isnt a target date set on re-instating the draft, but it has been brought up as a possibility because of the shortages of volunteers. and whoever said we had plenty is just plain wrong. we have been spreading out troops so thin that we have been re-routing troops from bases in other countries for the past 6-8 months, most recently from south korea.

sorry that was retarded. I don't think a draft will happen, because there would be a mass exodus (does this word exist in english? If not I mean departure) of youth towards Canada or Mexico. Plus ^there is ample military force to send more in Iraq before a draft.

its because bush thought that there were direct ties to iraq and terrorism, having mettings with leaders and such. we now know he was wrong, as we have pics of the man he was 'meeting with' in virginia on that day. We know that bush was wrong again, but here we are. We are in it, and can't just pull out and admit we were wrong. Bush's dad could'nt do it, so now he wants to finish it. i mean what the fuck does he care, its not his life hes losing.
************************************************************

everybody that will be old enough to vote needs to realize that we need to get our dictator bush out of office, he is an ignorant fuck, and cant string together a sentence to save his life. he cant se that there are ways around war, and he needs to be gone

its like this, we have alot of people in the army, its just that theyhave all been really spread out all over, like iraq, afgan, people for the jails in cuba, and where ever else we got beef with. also, after pearl harbor, alot of guys went and joined the army, after spetember 11, alot of people went out and bought an american flag or donated blood they didnt join the army. thats just how i see it.

todays more tecnoligicaly advanced millitary dosnt need a mass of soldiers as it did back during the vietnam war or the world wars when we last used the draft. there are plenty enlisted soldiers to fill the needed positions. the only time we may need a draft was if we are stuck occuping iraq with a significant force for a number of years while we went to war with our next potental target, north korea and we still defenatly wouldnt need a draft.

'todays more tecnoligicaly advanced millitary dosnt need a mass of soldiers as it did back during the vietnam war or the world wars when we last used the draft'

That's a common misconception. For every technologically advanced weapon that can shoot around corners, see through walls, etc., we still need a soldier to carry it. And unless we just bomb them all (civilians included) into oblivion, we're going to need just as many soldiers as we would in any other war, regardless of the time period. The Iraqis aren't cavemen... They have guns, too.

For those of you with the 'defend our freedom' argument... How is going into Iraq defending our freedom? Saddam had absolutely no way of doing anything to us... his missiles have an effective range of a couple of hundred miles, he had no way of transporting troops onto our soil, and he turned down an alliance with Al-Qaida. He couldn't and wasn't going to touch us. Now we have a bunch of loosely organized freedom fighters on our hands... with even less chance of doing any damage to the US. The only reason American civilians are being beheaded is that we are still in Iraq, after invading it without reasonable cause.

if we want to keep the situation under control, a draft may well be necessary. Our military isn't invincible, and as other countries pull out of Iraq, our current forces may find themselves without enough men. Unless we want to deploy every soldier we have (a bad idea), we're going to have to get some more troops from somewhere.

I'm glad I have a British passport... because I'm sure as hell not going to break off my college education to go kill Iraqis in a war I completely oppose, for a president I couldn't have (I wasn't 18 at the time), but certainly wouldn't have voted for, even before he got us into this mess.

And now, as if Iraq wasn't enough, he's trying to sink gay rights.
If I ever had a chance to talk to Mr. Bush, or any other Christian who supports the war (especially those who are against gay rights also), I might ask them what they think about Exodus 20:13- 'Thou shalt not kill'. I'm not Christian... so I might be missing something, but that phrase seems a bit beyond 'interpretation'. It seems a bit hypocritical to simply use the bible to oppress his fellow Americans, and ignore it when it suggests that killing thousands of people might not be the best thing to do.

If anyone ever wondered why I'm wary of religion... well, that's why.

look I know that this is an old thread but I found This on the acutal Congress website, not some bullshit propaganda.
title

There is a senate bill and a house bill both started in 2003 but both are in committees. contact your congressman and tell him to vote no on senate bill 89

Sorry if I piss anyone off.



going beyond is as bad as falling short, especially on 70 foot tables.

that website seems reallt shadey (not that^ one, idk about that^ one but i mean the first posted one). it doesnt have any support for what it says. it just says canada is not an option. im sorry but i need a bit more then that. also, i highly doubt congress would ever approve a draft, its just too fucked up and it would cirtanly drive whoever votes for it's popularty down.

um no you won't. the bill states that higher education will NOT be a reason exemption. if this is instated, if you're ANYONE (male or female) between 18 and 26, you can be drafted regardless

I'd go because I have friends in the national guard in iraq and it'd be an insult to them if I dodged the draft like most of our elected officials did in Vietnam. (Except John Kerry who pulled a guy out've the river in a combat zone)
