The problem with this draft thing that pisses me off is the hypocritical politics that will go down behind this. People with money and power will always be able use there influience to protect there love ones from this process while we regular people have to say our goodbyes to our love ones. Where is the equality in that. Example, Bush has 2 daughters of age that would be eligible for this draft. Do you really think that Bush would allow even one of his daughters to be drafted much less be in the trenches in Iraq with our regular sons and daughters. F*** no! That would go for most of the political big wigs to.
Now, I am proud of you guys that said that you would go to fight or would be drafted to do so, hands down. Im not saying im for the draft or against it. Just that it is unfair or will be. Before i get flamed or something, i will say that i would not be eligible for this draft if it went into place due to my age. But my younger brother and sister would. I served in the first war with the US Army out of Ft. Hood straight out of highschool under another Bush. I did my share of damage for my country the first few weeks of the war. I wouldnt wish anything like that experience for my sister that i went though. I think my bro could handle it, but it wouldnt be anything like he would expect. Plus this war is much much more worse than the fighting i went through. I am totaly against the Bush family politics for my own reasons, but i would do the duty if my country required it in a heart beat. The Bush family is in the oil business. Trust me, they have or had strong ties to Opec, oil rich Arab nations, and Bin Laiden. I bet good money that family is roll it in with the high prices on gas right now. Reason i suspect this is because after the heavy fighting was over in the first Iraq war, My Company was assigned to guard large oil facilities in Saudi for a few months owned by no other than the current Pres. Bush's dad and at the time my Commander and Cheif. Your tax dollars at work. I really hope that Disney releases that film Fahrenheit 911 by that guy that made Bowling for Columbine.. Michael Moore. Lots for dirt devestating to Bush i hear.
