Even if the wealthiest 5% don't pay their due, the result will be to get a larger majority of our country to pay attention. The sad fact is that if people aren't directly effected, most will not get involved. There is so much apathy in this country right now. The thinking is that a draft would give a jolt to the apathetic and spark some kind of reaction against the neocon agenda.navyswanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11253138338126622201noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12881172.post-1164088028515152102006-11-20T21:47:00.000-08:002006-11-20T21:47:00.000-08:00This comment has been removed by a blog administrator.navyswanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11253138338126622201noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12881172.post-1164064509336552112006-11-20T15:15:00.000-08:002006-11-20T15:15:00.000-08:00Lew, I read the Hersh article too..good stuff, I l...Lew, I read the Hersh article too..good stuff, I love Seymour's stuff.<BR/><BR/>The friggin anon troll is such an assmunch.

People would be busy pulling strings at the highest levels. And if they did end up drafted, they'd find them a cushy stateside job similar to the one Dubya had in the Nat'l Guard.<BR/><BR/>Nope, their children aren't in any danger of being killed or permanently disabled.Kathyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06875378679299157108noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12881172.post-1164031098181375172006-11-20T05:58:00.000-08:002006-11-20T05:58:00.000-08:00I don't know, after watching Sir, No Sir, I think ...I don't know, after watching <A HREF="http://www.sirnosir.com/" REL="nofollow">Sir, No Sir</A>, I think Rangle's not as far off as you might at first think.Frederickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12796513694478927710noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12881172.post-1164026625697551222006-11-20T04:43:00.000-08:002006-11-20T04:43:00.000-08:00Reinstating the draft to stop a war is still fucki...Reinstating the draft to stop a war is still fucking for virginity.Peacechick Maryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16808832340636218022noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12881172.post-1164023467567807782006-11-20T03:51:00.000-08:002006-11-20T03:51:00.000-08:00"That's how Bruce Springsteen avoided VietNam."Um,..."That's how Bruce Springsteen avoided VietNam."<BR/><BR/><BR/>Um, no it isn't.<BR/>Not that there's anything wrong wth it.

I am not certain if it is just a weirdo or if their are government trolls whose fulltime jobs are to try to influence our decisions on what to post based on the agenda of the day. I have seen before a troll who would lay out a bunch of noble causes to try to disuade bloggers from their "paranoid" notions that we confront really huge problems on a global scale. Nicholas Kristoff (sp?) who covers the genocide in Darfur wrote an op-ed piece today in response to a reader who had told him his "energy would be better spent on the problems at home," just like Lew's troll.<BR/><BR/>Lew, I stepped on by to give you the link to the Seymour Hercsh (sp?) story and I am so glad you are on top of it. <BR/><BR/>Thanks, Lew, and keep on doing what you're doing.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12881172.post-1163992673646032692006-11-19T19:17:00.000-08:002006-11-19T19:17:00.000-08:00An anonymous poster questioning Lew's honor?
