History, what it's worth. WW II was won by our having enough troops [draftees] to completely disarm, control and occupy both Germany and Japan at the same time. I spent a year in occupation in both Germany and Austria. Number of our deaths - zero.
I read your 'about page.' Glad to see younger folks who are Conservative. Didn't you get brainwashed by your college professors? Unfortunately, I think your cartoon is going to be there for a long time. Cheers
"Third and finally, some jobs are so dirty, you can only send in someone who has the finely honed hatred of liberals acquired at elite universities to do them. The devil is an abstraction for normal, decent Americans living in the red states. By contrast, at the top universities, you come face to face with the devil every day, and you learn all his little tropes and tricks.
"Conservatives from elite schools have already been subjected to liberal blandishments and haven't blinked. These are right-wingers who have fought off the best and the brightest the blue states have to offer. The New York Times isn't going to mau-mau them — as it does intellectual lightweights like Jim Jeffords and Lincoln Chafee — by dangling fawning profiles before them. They aren't waiting for a pat on the head from Nina Totenberg or Linda Greenhouse. To paraphrase Archie Bunker, when you find a conservative from an elite law school, you've really got something."
Not to toot my own horn or anything, but I LOVE those two paragraphs. : )
Rangel hasn't figured out that, if there's a draft, the government will be drafting black people against their will.
He never thinks that far ahead.
