Just have to move a few years in advance, at the first signs of draftiness (which, to agree with what's been stated already, are not showing currently).

true, true. so they probably would just yank me right back here. oh well. at least we're thinkin' ahead.

thank you

I did argue your point in my first response, in which you said "stop reading textbooks".

And i'm the one with a nice rebuttle?

The fact is that if an adminstration tried to do that, they would pretty much ruin their party for the next 30-40 years. If you can make a logical argument as to how that is wrong, other than saying I read textbooks then I'll continue this argument. Otherwise I'll just go on saying the same thing that you are wrong.

If it really comes down to it we can send the Canadian Navy to help you guys out, we just need to find the oars

We'd be better off sending the Salvation Army to help us out.

Well, invading countries illegally based on falsified and doctored information, solely for the benefit of the gas-guzzling hick brigade and their inability to purchase a vaguely fuel efficient car, whilst all the time eroding the civil liberties of your own citizens and pressurizing what few governments support you to do the same, whilst alienating the adherents of an entire religion through intolerance and propaganda, at the same time as imprisoning large numbers of men without trial for years, and sending others around the world to be tortured for useless "intelligence" is going to result in a fair amount of scorn, yes.

There won't be a draft. Bush might be stupid, but he's surrounded by purely evil, greedy men. If they commit political suicide by installing a draft then they will lose the political power that allows them to generate such absurd sums of money for themselves. Large sections of the American citizenry might be blinded by jingoistic, patriotic hoopla, but if it actually came to donning the uniform and doing the fighting themselves, there'd be a very different story from a lot of them.

"invading countries illegally"

? Or are you talking about NATO and the UN, two bodies that 100% depend on the US for its running, denouncing our actions?

Yeah, you know. Begins with 'I', ends in 'raq'. Doesn't have weapons of mass destruction nor links to Al-Qaeda, but sod it, we'll blow it up anyway.

The invasion contravened international law, ergo, it was illegal.
