We have a volunteer army.
The draft is unnecessary.
All we need is funding, that people like Kerry voted against.

If you're going to send a soldier into battle with nothing but a pile of rocks and a sling shot, you owe him every darn rock in the pile.

The Vanguard ^ | June 18, 2004 | Rod D. Martin
In a report which might alternately be termed ?stunning? or ?terrifying?, United Nations weapons inspectors confirmed last week not merely that Saddam Hussein had weapons of mass destruction, but that he smuggled them out of his country, before, during and after the war. Late last week, the UN Monitoring, Verification and Inspection Commission (UNMOVIC) briefed the Security Council on Saddam's lightning-fast dismantling of missile and WMD sites before and during the war. UNMOVIC executive chairman Demetrius Perricos detailed not only the export of thousands of tons of missile components, nuclear reactor vessels and fermenters for chemical and biological warheads, but...

be able to take this war to the enemy on his home turf...

One of the things that gives me solace is the idea that as events here keep unfolding there is an increasing probability that at some point in time, I will be in the right place at the right time and armed to take it to the enemy except it will be on our home turf.

only I cannot use the CPAP...so its a killer...

When my dad died in 1980, SA wasn't even known yet. But the docs have now ID'd it as the probably mechanism of his actual demise. MY CPAP has literally saved my life. I've worn out three machines since my diagnosis in 1994. Now with all the Hurricanes, I've gone out and purchased a deep cycle marine battery and an inverter to insure that I can sleep in peace....even if I lose power in a storm. Have you been to a sleep clinic? I do one every year. Last time they tried a new CPAP accessory called "nasal pillows." Pretty kewl. Go do a sleep clinic and see what can be done. My volcanic snoring almost cost me my marriage. My wife is now thanking God I found the CPAP solution, too.

What about the Sarin artillery shell rigged as an IED?

No,you don't believe the same things that Churchill did.As a matter of fact,it has been pointed out to you,many times over,that you don't know very much at all about Churchill's postions on much of anything at all.

Churchill thought that Hitler was a problem,long before there was evidence.He also thought that the middle east was a roiling mess,which needed intervention.How right he was.

But being the masochist that you are,I know that you are just eating up all of the attention you are getting.LOL

The Vanguard "

What's The Vanguard? Is that a Birch publication? Since "Rod Martin's" report doesn't square with what Bush, Powell or their weapons search team (see current Drudge page) you'd better have "Rod Martin" get in touch with the feds and set them straight!

"The Vanguard" - sheesh

After an hour, you still have yet to answer me.
Use your imagination and just answer the question.

Is there any situation that could occur in the future of America that would cause you to support a draft?

YES or NO

churchy....nobody,N-O-B-O-D-Y, in their right mind,would continue to post threads and replies,which only engenders every single person replying to either/both,to refute and/or ridicule that person.But you do it and appear to enjoy it.Heck,even when you've been proved dead wrong,often by the same people,you smile like someone who has been lobotomized and beg for more.What other conclusion,then,can anyone come to,except that you are a masochist?

Who is Dr.Phil....your psychiatrist?

Are you sure that Powell didn't use it as part of the "Powell doctrine"?

Is a Sarin artillery shell a WMD or not?

Dr. Phil is that nutty wannabe relationship counsellor that's always on Oprah..
And I should be horrified as a man to know that tidbit, but someone suggested that I need to talk to the creep.
So I found out who he was.
*grr*

You stated in post 99 that there "are no WMD's in Iraq."

You've been asked if a Sarin artillery shell counts as a WMD.
Are you going to answer?

Change your name. Churchill was witty, intelligent and a delight to spar with. You, unfortunately, are even more boring than Bill O'Reilly. You are wrong on all counts and we have pointed out you idiocy numerous times.

Get out of Dodge...You are too stupid to remain here.

After reviewing churchillbuff's posting history, I have concluded that he tends to be argumentative and has a tendancy to change subjects or answer a question with a question. And he enjoys the attention.(kind of like my teenage son)

So I'm going to bed. My 14 year old son has picture day in school, so is an early 'first call' in the Airborne house. Have a nice night.

I know.

It would be nice if he'd actually answer teh question that did present itself when he posted his post 99 statement of "no WMD's in Iraq" though.
He conveniently forgets the binary chemical weapon Sarin artillery shell rigged as an IED in Iraq a couple months back.
And even if it was an 'old' shell, it still would have had to have chemicals poured into it from somewhere since it did release sarinwhen detonated.
And since hans Blix et al failed to find even the old shells, the Sarin shell's mere existence proves Blix et al wrong.

So I want to hear him explain this, deny it, or try to squirm out of it.

Have a good evening, rest well.
We shall see what morning light reveals.
