And relax people. There is no way it's going to pass, popular opinion to the contrary is overwhelming (7/10 say drafts suck). The politicians wouldn't dare go against THOSE odds.


More than likely, but the fact that a democrat suggested this idea has me a little more than spooked.

Their argument seems to be:

"AND WE'LL HATE IT MORE IF WE SEND OUR KIDS TO DIE IN IT! HAHAHA!!! TAKE THAT BUSH!"
"The Nation that makes a great distinction between its scholars and its warriors will have its thinking done by cowards and its fighting done by fools."

True, but why do we have to pay them with the same money? Why does strangling the fat cats in Washington also mean stranding the people who try to teach in that godforsaken necropolis of a school system we have?

That's so..... unjust!

I have never once seen a person on welfare eating bon bons.

I don't even think they make bon bons anymore.
