While denying that they are even considering a revival of the draft, the Bush administration and the military have been conducting a low-profile recruitment campaign in recent months to staff the country’s Selective Service boards with more than 10,000 volunteers.

Praise the Glorious Leader!

Oh you're right, the glorious messiah John Kerry is much better because he cheats his way out and disobeys orders. Thx for correcting me!

I'd have more important things to do too, like have **** with all your lonely wives while you're away fighting!

Why don't you just bump the old draft post and argue there Rolling Eyes

I'd want to get drafted though.

I mean I don't want to make a career in the army but If my country needs me I would put my life on the line for it anyday.

If you get drafted, do you get to choose which branch to go into in?

Yeah you go to whatever branch of service they need. If you enlist during a draft you can go into the branch you want.

Won't happen though. The word "draft" scares to many americans... to be an advocate of it is political suicide at this point, especially since it's for a war most people don't want, and its dubious as to whether Iraq was a threat to our national security. If WWIII came around, or the US was actually threatened, maybe, but not for this.

Did you even read the article? This movement was started by Democrats. It was only recently that any Republicans began supporting it. As for our President, he has opposed it the entire time.

First of all this is a repost

Secondly, it was established in the first thread that Hagel parts with most republicans (including the present administration) on the draft. Democrats are the ones hankering for it.

The only branch people are drafted into is the Army. Those who die have tobe replaced.

If I were going into the military I'd be a Marine. I'd look **** in that uniform. The navy has the worst uniforms by far, they all look like f**s, no offence intended to people of homosexual persausion!

Democrates pushing for the draft - bad Kerry bad
Bush against the draft - yay 4 more years
