Lurking Freepers: When YOUR Kid Gets Drafted...Don't Cry To Me!!
I will have no sympathy for you. You voted for the son of a bush...so don't expect any sympathy from me, when YOUR kid gets drafted, if you voted for Bush...I will have no sympathy for you...because you could have prevented it, and didn't.

You were too worried about Gays, Guns, Abortion, and God, to worry about the safety of your own family so now you deal with it!

Hard? Yes. But too bad.

Bitter here, and proud of it.

14. Draft?
wouldn't worry too much about it....this admin is after all working to stand up the first ever International Army for the UN via the "Global Peace Operations Initiative" - something that IMO they should be taking flak from conservatives and any other Constitutionally minded folk out there....

oh well....congrats to Mr Kerry for conceding the way he did - it was the right thing to do.

34. there won't be a draft, sir arms....
although the legislation that the Democrats (Rangel & Hollings) pushed for calling for a return to smoe type of compulsory national service ((non combat types of duty included - women eligible for the 'draft' as well)) could well see a revival of some kind IMO if we are hit with a major attack in this nation again ....

If they lose their jobs, so much the better, This will be government by corporations.

22. Yes, they should be the first to enlist
in God's, er, Chickenhawk's military. Maybe their families could show their "support for the troops" by sending them their food stamps. I have NO sympathy for them.

Democracy gets the government it deserves.

31. True colors.
Is what I'm seeing this sites true colors.
Don't let jerks like this guy seize control of this forum.
If you have something to say, say it. But don't preach hate and violence just because people don't agree with you.
Maybe next election the party can field a better candidate.

10. Why haven't they gone back to Iraq?
Many are pulling multiple tours. Well, they've got more wars to fight.

Kerry served a year plus 4 months.

In fact, why do they wait for the draft.
Freepers, go and enlist!
Bush needs more soldiers to fight in his wars.

30. Exactly...
Edited on Wed Nov-03-04 12:21 PM by GainesT1958
If they're sooooo convinced that we should have "Four More Wars"--er, YEARS; yeah, that's it!:eyes:--they should sign up and volunteer for them--ALL of 'em!::mad:

After all, THEY'RE the ones with all of those "other priorities" who want to let all the "white trash and 'n-words'"--as Tom Delay put it--do their fighting for 'em. Time for THEM to suck it up and join the flank for all of Dub, Cheney, Rummy and the Neo-Cons' wars--let 'em go think they're making us all safe--when we're just ending up buying more duct tape.

Viet Nam took some time to sink in as to its quagmire nature; apparently, so will Iraq. Let Mr. AWOL take the bannana out of his mouth and stick it in his flight suit--the only mission HE'LL accomplish is to sully his family's name for the ages!:grr:

We need a president who cares about us--as more than merely his cerfs and cannon fodder. How about a GENERAL who fills that bill? Wes Clark 2008!:D

B-)

11. I'm totally there with you
Let them reap the whirlwind. It's official now: this country is going to have to hit rock bottom before anything changes. Time to batten down the hatches, because it will happen and it won't be pretty at all.

13. We TOLD you Freepers not to go into Iraq
and you're still whining about it.

In oh, about a year, you'll be crying again

and we don't want to hear it!

The responsibility is ALL yours -- accept it.

Or any of those other * mega-majority states. I don't feel too secure here in AZ quite honestly.

17. I don't understand this mentality
Edited on Wed Nov-03-04 11:44 AM by mreagle
I don't understand why some of us here (seemingly most of us) believe that in order to support the war in Iraq and the war on terrorism, that you must be willing to enlist in the military. Logically, this just doesn't make sense.

Apply this same logic to firefighting (another 100% volunteer force, same as our military) and it is equivalent to say you can't support firefighters unless you are willing to run into a burning building with a hose yourself.

Should the anti-war ranks have to be required to join the insurgents?

Bad logic, folks.

Also, the bill to reinstate the draft was introduced by two democrats.

We need to get a grip here, people. It's a sad day for liberals.

Fighting fires is necessary to survival. Dying in Iraq because of lies is not. Get a grip!

The Administration in the FY2005 budget included money to fund the full staffing of the local draft boards with an activation date in summer 2005.

19. there are a lot of people who'll be looking to start trouble with
and physically harm freepers.

people gloating and openly celebrating this may want to think long and hard about the wisdom of doing so.

not saying i support something like this, but there are an awful lot of pissed off people out there.

24. The Freepers will not cry about sending their kids
They will offer ANYTHING for their master. If Bush told them to tattoo "666" on their foreheads they would do it with a Swiss Army Knife and a ballpoint pen. Believe it.

27. Fuck 'em.
I hope freeper fundie's kids come home with PTSD or dead from the war. I don't care if anyone thinks that's harsh, fuck 'em. I don't know or care about my country at this point and I'm ashamed to be an American. Anyone who elected this assfuck deserves ANY misery that arises from it, but realize I will also pay for this too. OIF is going as high as the 10th stage. My friend is heading for Vietraq in January. If he doesn't come home alive - every Republican is my enemy for life.

This church state is a dying reich and we're going to be burned by Chinese nukes, which you have Rumsferret to thank.

39. Because it's what you always do.
Whether it's the economy, unemployment, terrorism, crime, or the price of eggs, Republicans whine and blame Democrats.

"Responsibility" is just too hard a word for you.
