Molly - Just for grins, when would defend the country? And where would defend the country? Would you prefer to fight in NYC? What corner of Times Square would you defend? Or do you actually believe that the radical moslem terrorists are no threat and all we have to is play I'm okay-you're okay. Now to the draft. The military is currently excercising its right to have people complete the contract they signed. I understand that this is a huge inconvience. But I don't think we'll see draft riots like we had during the Civil War. Of course we have a couple of similar things. A wealthy upper class who was marginally for defending the Union constantly criticizing Lincoln and then avoiding the draft by paying someone else to serve. Sound familar?
