Monsters and the draft.

These monsters kill their own. If we pulled out of the middle east now is there anyone out there that believes the violence will stop? Or that we wouldn't continue to be targeted? These monsters can't be reasoned with, we know that. They remind me of horror movies where the aliens look like us, talk like us, but they are not human. They have no soul. There is no reasoning with them. I know it is tiring to keep hearing references to the holocaust whenever we want to measure evil, but it is the one thing we all can agree on. One group of people CANNOT decide that another group has no right to live. This is the cornerstone of the terrorists belief. We are not muslim therefore we must die. And they don't care who dies with us, their own children, their own people. Why can't liberals get this?
There is no alternative. We must eliminate them.

I just finished reading some of
MTV's 'rock the vote' stuff on the candidates and the issues. I was pleasantly surprised by the fairness and accuracy of the issues and the candidates stand on them. I had heard on the Glenn Beck program this morning about a audio MTV had that implied the draft could be re-instituted, but I couldn't find it. Seems an e-mail has been going around saying that the draft would happen if Bush was re-elected. A total lie of course. But in case you are worried, only the democrats have sponsored 2 bills in congress to re-instate it, Congressman Charles Rangel says he did it to "protest the war." Yeah, riiiight. Maybe Mr. Rangel did it to have it out there as a scare tactic thinking that no one really pays attention to who is sponsoring a bill. Hmmmm...?
The Pentagon says a draft wouldn't work anyway because the 2 yr requirement is barely enough time to train a soldier in today's specialized high tech force. Besides as mentioned before here, the
military is having no problems with volunteers.
UPDATE: Bill over at INDC Journal has a interview with a CBS reporter regarding the e-mail draft hoax.

Lets disagree but lets not lower ourselves in this debate.

Wonder whats on TV tonight, anybody know?.....;-)

On the lighter side: I promised more Boudreaux jokes. Here goes:

Boudreaux died, and his wife Clotill, went to the newspaper to put his name in the obituary. Clotill was a very frugal woman and asked the editor how much was the obituary going to cost. He explained that the cost was per word.
She thought for a second and replied, "Just put in 'Boudreaux died." The editor was appalled and insisted "Madame, you must put in a little bit more than that!"
She thought about his request for a moment and responded, "Ok, then put in this.....'Boudreaux died, Boat for sale'
