Get your lighters ready!

Usually I can think of something witty to say about a news article... Something that can lighten the mood, even with how dark it seems to get now-a-days. But this article is too serious, it is too scary for the adults and youth of this country.

"Frequent tours for U.S. forces in Iraq and Afghanistan have stressed the all-volunteer force and made it worth considering a return to a military draft, President Bush's new war adviser said Friday."(NYTIMES)

A draft... A freaking draft.

Ok. Lt. Gen. Douglas Lute, let me get this straight.
You are saying, and I quote:

"I think it makes sense to certainly consider it,"(NYTIMES)

Yes, It makes perfectly good sense. Let's start a draft, since it was so popular to begin with, to make sure we make some progress in this war. Let's start our youth off young hating the government. Let's start this new generation off on a great note by taking their brothers, sisters, mothers, and fathers away from them forcefully(Like you know any other way) and tell them it's for the "greater good". You complain about the lack of support for YOUR war now? If you are serious that this "makes sense to certainly consider it" then you are in for it. Shine up your riot gear.

"And I can tell you, this has always been an option on the table. But ultimately, this is a policy matter between meeting the demands for the nation's security by one means or another"(NYTIMES)

And there is the fascist tactic of "one way or the other". The old we will continue OUR agenda if it means destroying your families. We are your government, we love our people... but we love our money and our power much...MUCH more.
I don't know how anyone can sit there and not cringe at that statement. The evil just radiates off of it. "Meeting the demands for the nation's security by one means or another."
Which is our government saying "Well if this normal war thing doesn't work out, then we'll ship off anyone of age(that of course isn't rich, and isn't related to anyone in power) and health to fix the problem. If that doesn't fix it, then we may have to take another drastic approach... another option that's on the table.
I know, I know. The link talks about Iran, but that isn't the point of why I brought it up. I brought it up because not only did our President mention this option being a viable "solution" to the war,(please correct me if I'm wrong) but I can't recall a mainstream candidate(besides Obama, who in turn is taking crap from Clinton about it) who didn't respond the same way.
"All Options are on the Table."


Well to all the Suit-wearing-Oil-Drinking-Money-Grubbers... If all your options remain on the table... And if your choice is anything BUT "Fix Our Own Problems"... Then like I said before.... Shine up your riot gear.
