Hillary wants a larger military.

I'm not sure NYS was expecting this as a solution to the “more jobs” for the state.

If Kerry is elected come November, how would a draft be sold to the American public if needed?

If Kerry loses to Bush this year I think Hillary might win the Presidency by a landslide in '08.

On the other hand, if Kerry wins in '04 the soonest Hillary can really run and expect to win would be...I don't know, but a long time from now.

Kerry '04.  The lesser of two evils.

A draft would be interesting. A  Momma’s boy like you going to the front lines would be suicide, indeed.

Kerry will save you.

Nah, Stabby's already got the words to Oh Canada memorized.

It'd be interesting to see who falls where if the draft were re-instated to allocate more bodies to Iraq... doubt the support would be much unless this rumored WMD cache shows up.

I don't believe Hillary wants more military, I suspect she is just saying what she thinks people want to hear.   What did she and her little puppet Bill do for the military?  As they say, actions speak louder than words.

I will never trust her, but heck, I don't trust any politician.

I've got fat and lazy in my old age, but there is one thing I am assured of.

I’d ***** slap Frogman outta his shoes on a bet, but I don’t abuse children.

Of course I’m not being shot at, but I’d be the first in line if need be.

You think that is enough for the poor shade accounts to cry “SKUZZY, CREAMO WANTS TO BEAT ME UP! Ban him!”

Just a little note...

They are allready talking about transfering people out of the USAF and Navy......They plan on tellin them.....Get out or get transfered its your choice.

I think they are just looking for a quick fix with that though.

I was unaware that we were having a recruiting problem that nescesitated a draft.  Its not like we've had a tremendous amount of casualties (compared to previous conflicts of the same length.)

I will tell you this Sen. Clinton has NEVER been very popular with the military itself.
