Stop wishing the Draft on young people!!!!!!

[Zing Zing Zingbah]

How mean!

[tjdee]

1. I'm sorry, but this country gets what it deserves.

Half the country doesn't want to vote?

Young people don't want to vote?

The only problem with that, though, is that those of us who DID vote against this horror of an administration have to deal with all the shit too. :cry:

[Zing Zing Zingbah]

4. But to want this to happen is wrong.

[ObaMania]

9. Absolutely tjdee, we at least tried..

.. but for all those folks who didn't vote, the next four years will certainly make them wish they had.

[The Minus World]

21. Arrrgh.

You place the blame for this debacle squarely on the shoulders of the youth vote? As though the 18-25 demographic were supposed to descend from the heavens and rescue America from four years of media manipulation and terror hysteria? Please, reassess your stance.

There has been a cultural awakening of the left - just walk into any bookstore, listen to how accepted it is to be critical of Bush nowadays. Was it that way in 2002?

I'm disgusted at how people are so quick to blame this not-so-quick, not-so-decisive victory on the youth vote.

This election is being stolen from under our noses, and we're only serving to divide ourselves further if we follow this ridiculous line of thinking.

Nobody deserves to die in an unjust war.

2. it would be good for the south. n/t

[Lefta Dissenter]

3. No shit!

I have two kids of draft age. We have busted our butts for Kerry, and against the war. Why should WE have to pay the price? Send the ones who vote for *

[mindfulNJ]

18. so do I...

My kids marched against the war and worked their asses off to get out the vote. All the young Bush voters should be the first to go!x(

[JuniorPlankton]

5. why?

[Zing Zing Zingbah]

7. You don't care about young people dying

for meaningless causes?

[wuushew]

6. Prison is always an option

free bedding and three square meals a day ain't bad.

[ProgressiveDave]

10. and isn't it "don't ask, don't tell"...just like the army?

but the tossed salad is a lot less tasty.

[Cat Atomic]

8. I'm still draft age, and I'd be on the list of desirable skills.

And I think that if this country gives Bush another 4 years, a Draft is exactly what it deserves.

[Zing Zing Zingbah]

11. Everyone that is wishing for the draft must be old.

How much did you guys like it the first time around? It must have been a great experience to want it to happen again. <sarcasm>

[libhill]

27. Well -

I've been there, done that. But at least I tried to prevent it through activism. You guys could have tried to prevent it by VOTING.

[Lars39]

12. Besides the obvious disregard for human life,

Why would anybody in their right mind want to give the Bush* administration the warm bodies to further their PNAC goals???

[The Minus World]

22. Because

they have no clue what PNAC is. Blame that fumble on the mainstream media.

[roguevalley]

13. knowing what is at stake, if they didn't vote, fuck them. enjoy

Iraq, Iran and the rest. Bastards. Anyone. ANYONE who didn't vote, knowing that the world was at stake deserves whatever comes. Fuckers!!!

[radar]

14. For the young....

...Already in uniform. The soldiers serving now, need relief.

You can't expect a guy trained to run a sprint to stay in for a marathon...

Recycling the same 3-4 hundred thousand is murder.

[ikojo]

15. NOT voting is the same as voting FOR Bush

I say anyone who didn't vote is saying they support Bush and what he stands for.

Sign up then. If you can't vote or don't care enough to vote get your butt over to Iraq and show your commander in chief what you are willing to do for him and his corporate buddies.

[Dead Presidents]

17. I know

How could anyone NOT vote is just stupid. I still am holding hope that we can win this election.

[Zero Division]

16. SELF-DELETE

I know you guys aren't saying that. Sorry, just stressed out beyond belief.

[Zing Zing Zingbah]

20. I'm also 25.

[PatriotGames]

19. Why not the ones who voted *? They asked for it!

[mitchum]

23. I wish it on no one

and support resistance.
However, my baser nature sometimes leads me to imagine certain noisome people starring in "Hypocrisy Now"

[Occulus]

24. deleted

[greblc]

25. What else will wake our nation from the drunken stupor?

It seems half our nation doesn't get it. Unfortunatly we are all in this together and they will continue to drag us down. It's not ok to ask some 18yr old to sacrifice 2+ years in Iraq while his peers play video games, watch cable and party. We've all tried very hard to get Kerry elected. Not hard enough. And now we'll pay. With our pay checks our healthcare and our children.

Fuck!

[AmandaRuth]

26. the evangelical youth should go fight this war.

The booshies will get my kid over my dead body.

[ComerPerro]

28. Im wishing it on Republicans, not on "young people"

Draft College Rethugs first!

I say:
"Voted for Bush? Between 18 and 24? See ya in Iraq, asshole!"
