I have an 18 year old intern who is freaked out by the draft too. He and his buddies talk about it all the time he told me.

This one took it just a tad too far IMO. ;)

"I have an 18 year old intern who is freaked out by the draft too."

I hope he's not as freaked out as this guy. I mean, I think I worry about things that may never happen, I'm just a rank amateur compared to this fellow. And what about the guy who shot him?

I blame Charles Rangel, he's the one that started all this re-instate the draft stuff. Admitedly he wants to "draft the rich", but it looks like he's just managed to get the working class in a tizzy.

Howard J. Turkster: "I joined the army 'cause my father and brother were in the army. I though I'd better join before I got drafted."

Sgt. Hulka: "Son, uh, there ain't no draft no more."

Howard J. Turkster: "There was one?"

Have your 18 year old intern look what the Democrats are trying to introduce in the House and Senate. They are trying to scare young people and to defeat Bush. The Democrats want another Vietnam era with young people burning their draft cards. The bill is literally on the floor. No one wants to touch it with a ten foot pole. Career military prefer the all-volunteer military. Better morale, better training and most of all...better pay!
