He would blame
it on the Republicans, of course.

And it would be the republicans fault for dragging us into this ********.
Afghanistan is NOT spelled I-R-A-Q.


The only bill currently before Congress to
reinstate the draft is sponsored by Democrats. Democrats have a long
history
of proposing such measures, including drafts for 'peaceful' purposes such
as
the Peace Corps. This is in keeping with the historical and philosophical
origins of the Democratic Party, which was founded to protect the rights
of
slave owners and to represent slave states. After all, if everyone is the
slave of the US government (which they frequently allege), then what is
wrong with private ownership of humans?

You really are a couple beers short of a six pack.

Yeah, but they didn't count on a paranoid schizophrenic megalomaniac being
installed in the presidency.

Who says the reservists/guardmen called up "want to be there."

They WANT to be in the guard/reserve, or at least that's what they wanted
when they either signed up to begin with, or took whatever
promotion/college grant/etc. that got them there in the first place.
While
many may have had the impression that the guard or reserve was a free
ride,
nobody twisted thier arm.

They're being illegaly and fraudulently coerced to re-up with threats that
if they don't re-up voluntarily, they will be forced and sent to Iraq.

Evidently the person doing the complaining about reservists and being held
over on active duty has 1. Never served in the US military, or 2. Did not
read that piece of paper when they signed up. I would guess it is the 1st.
I
have a nephew that was held into active duty serving in Iraq. We wish he
could be home now, but he joined the Army....not the campfire girls. To
intend on joining the US armed forces and then say well "Why do I have to
fight" is kind of like saying "I intend on going to Disney World , but I
refuse to listen to "It's A Small World" while I am there." Just
DUMBBBBBB!

I learned my chicken scratch signature spending an entire 8 hour day signing
papers after VERY brief explanations as to what they were. It would have
taken me a month to read them all and probably the rest of my life to
understand them. I have no idea what I was signing and my education was a
lot better than the kids they're getting now.

You miss the point , the extension of military duty, IS THE MILITARY. When
you sign up it is there in black and white on the piece of paper the
volunteer signs. If they do not agree with it , then do not sign it , and
do
not join. If you sign well then you belong to the military .

Your claim is that extensions to military tours of duty have all been
voluntary?

Uh, okay...

No they are not , you don't have a dang clue about what you are talking
about. NO ONE HAS BEEN FORCED TO RE-UP. Maybe if you had of served in
something other than the girl scouts you would know the difference. As far
as Bush..I don't like everything he does at all. But I would never vote for
a commie posing as a Democrat that talked nothing but crap of our servicemen
in Vietnam. What kind of morale do you think that would bring to our
fighting men..and NO you ain't one of them!
I end my discussion here...the ignorance has just disgusted me beyond any
more words. Just breaks my heart that my son will fight for the likes of the
chicken****s that are to afraid to serve. Move to France or Canada!
