I have a number of questions:

a. How does a Swiss guy mix up the SS and the Gestapo?

b. Does this guy know that the President can't call up the draft? Is he intentionally lying to impugn GW, or is he just a moron who believes the lamestream media?

c. Does Switzerland have mandatory military service? (I thought I read that somewhere...)

d. What perpetual degeneration of Iraq? Did liberals not read the Iraqi election stories?

e. Is this the kind of inanity that's going to come out of our 'elite' colleges for the next generation?

I hope when we need the draft, we can exempt the traitorous cowardly left.

What perpetual degeneration of Iraq? Did liberals not read the Iraqi election stories?

Liberals are not required to take into account any facts they don't like or that disprove their world view.

[joedelta]

What a punk!

Is this the kind of inanity that's going to come out of our 'elite' colleges for the next generation?

Yes. Just like the last generation.

The answer is e.)...

They'll leave the fighting to the underprivileged patriots in the non-elite universities, community colleges and common high schools. People such as Liefer are just too good to risk...

OK, OK, so maybe I’m not actually a draft-dodger. To be quite honest, my apparent refusal to register for Selective Service is grounded for the most part in laziness, not dissent.

So what are you complaining about? Get down to the post office and register and do your duty, a duty Jimmy Carter re-instituted back in 1979 mind you. Man to be a liberal really means not having to be held accountable for anything.

The guy's at STANFORD???? Good grief, he can't even WRITE!

"I know that I will not take part. I’ll be a happy Swiss in Switzerland."

In other words..

"I'll be content to sit on my fat ass and enjoy the freedoms of America until I'm expected to do something to help preserve them. At that point, I'll run away."

Switzerland does not give out citizenship as freely as the US does.

[anniegetyourgun]

Waddatwit.

BTW, welcome to FR.

I hope this punk's X-Box shorts out. That'll make him cry.

[AdrianR]

Does Switzerland have mandatory military service?

Yes, 3 or 4 months long. After which they get an automatic gun with ammo to keep at home so that they could quickly defend Switzerland if another country attacks (which has not happened in last 8 centuries, though).

[delacoert]

c. Does Switzerland have mandatory military service? (I thought I read that somewhere...)

From ExxUN.com: Switzerland: 19 years of age for compulsory military service; 17 years of age for voluntary military service; conscripts receive 15 weeks of compulsory training, followed by 10 intermittent recalls for training over the next 22 years (2004)>

The fact that military service is compulsary in Switzerland makes this guy a duplicitous, whining pussy.

[nothingnew]

I guess what really bugs me, go figure, is what the Selective Service stands for - all the baggage that the draft carries, and the idea that upon registration there’s a chance I’ll be lugging that baggage around.

"Come here babydarlin'...let mommy help you...here...I'll wipe your ass for you......there babydarlin', you feel all better now? Oh?...babysweets can't carry the baggage?...babytootums can't carry his own widdle load?...babysweetfaceluvey to weak and tired and a pussyassed coward to defend his wights?....oh...here sweetums...let me kick your ass outta here, ya pansiedassed POS!

(I was just pretending to be this cowardly double citizenship swisscheese eatin' moron's mama.)

"Is this the kind of inanity that's going to come out of our 'elite' colleges for the next generation?" You guessed it. How can it be any way with all the uneducated junkies they call college professors.

[GVnana]

that’s what I owe the federal government for evading the draft

Telegram for Mongo. There is no draft.

[The Great RJ]

The liberals are in a panic because the e-mails circulating on colleges campuses before the election assured everyone that within 90 days of the inauguration Bush was going to reinstate the draft. They now need to come up with some story to cover the utter falseness of these charges.

[swmobuffalo]

Too bad this punk doesn't have a daddy like mine. My little brother decided he wasn't going to register either and my dad packed him up in the car and hauled his butt down to the Selective Service office and made him! To this day I don't think my brother ever quite forgave him for doing that.
