As I said in the other thread...Charlie Rangel, Dem in NY has a Bill, proposing the draft that was "tabled" per Nancy Pelosi "until 2009". (As in AFTER the election..) The Republicans have consistently voted AGAINST the draft..and the only Draft proposal I am aware of, is the Dems, via the Bill of Charlie Rangel, Dem NY. And why on earth does all this religious tripe, end up in the political debates?? Don't get that. Sounds a tad loony to me. JMO |

I've only agreed with one thing the OP has said, and this is true
The VA hospital/healthcare system is the most fvcked up place in the world to go if you are in need of good medical care or in pain. Yes, all you VA doctors, nurses, workers, administrator, you all suck a big weiner You should all be snakebit , shot, promptly hung, but not before you are given an asprin for your pain and told about the budget and how your meds cost to much, suck my arse you b@stards, Directed to all VA docs and nurses, i know, it aint your fault, but your the ones that are there |

I'm for a draft where "chickenhawks" like **** Cheney can't get a deferment and Dubya can't hide and not show up for his National Guard duty. If the children of government officials all had an equal shot at being on the firing line, I think our reps would be much less apt to warmonger. Yes! Hardly any of the current politicians have children in the military serving in Iraq, so it's easy for them to see someone else's kids going off to war!

NOBAMA!!!

Obama is for mandatory service too. What's your point?
|
|
|
|
The point being that Obama is not planning on creating new wars so the need for a draft will be nil to none.

He is planning on utilizing the forces already in existance in Iraq. Personally the only advantage I see on being in Afghanistan is that we are closer to bin laden. Bin laden should pay for what he did to us. Babyshrub slanted the view to Iraq but bin laden is the one who struck us at home. He is the responsible party. |

How does anyone KNOW what Obama "is planning"?
I haven't heard anything of substance from him, just trying to copy "The Camelot" thing of JFK, not TOO obvious! Again change is NOT always good change. Do YOU want the government picking your doctors for you?? The HMO's are bad enough, but Universal Healthcare would be a disaster. Read two articles yesterday, how elderly people were starved to death in the hospital in England. And my friend has a baby with problems, she has had to wait and wait and now was told "there IS a problem, but you have to wait until October to speak to the doctor." Do you want that here in America?? Not me! And that is what Obama and the Dems want. And Hillary's idea of "health insurance for all", is the goverment determining who can afford insurance, and then garnisheeing their pay checks, to MAKE them have insurance. Do you want that?? McCain proposes to fix what is in place, go to his website...he breaks it all down, how he's going to do his best to fix the corrupt Medicare and Medicaid systems and make health insurance more affordable. Now that makes sense! The other proposals mean that the rich will have all the good doctors, and the average joe will be stuck with the worst of the worse doctors. No thank you! Again, instead of name-calling, know the issues..know what the candidate proposes to do, that is actually viable and not pie in the sky. Just blind hatred, accomplishes nothing. And I agree as to religion being okay...only man's interpretation being messed up. That's what I meant about bringing these "end of days" and "mark of beast", etc. religious arguments in politics silly. Why not debate the issues, what each candidate will attempt to accomplish, instead of who had an affair when? Frankly, I don't care. JKF is a hero to all..yet he was an infamous womanizer. I'm more interested in what the candidate proposes to do, to better the economy, to bring a realistic end to the war in Iraq (without just cutting and running...which means those troops died for nothing). The military I've spoken to, support McCain. No way is Obama ready to run this country! No way!! We need an experienced man and having military experience and all the foreign relations experience that McCain is a plus to me. Attacking a man, and taking light the fact that he was tortured is way wrong, imo. And Christians say this??? What is wrong with this picture? Kooky times, these! And I so looked forward to my friend, Juan, posting in politics. He is very knowledgeable as to world affairs, history, and is a vet. I'm hoping he'll change his mind...we can all learn a lot from him. I know I did! |

Draft them all!!! Mainly those whimpy whiny little rich boys. Maybe they'll actually get some balls I'm tired of the middle class taking the hit for everything. The rich need to pay their fair share if not more!!! Def. more!!

Only a dimwit or a down on your lucker would join the military now. They are haveing a hard time recruiting even in this bad economy, thats why they have the stop loss program, they dont let you out when your time is up, cuz there is a war on.
