Here is a letter from PNAC members to Frisk, and others . . .
and now they are on CSPAN 1 talking about the draft.

Now who lied???

http://www.newamericancentury.org/defense-20050128.htm

Lawrence Korb, Center for American Progress Senior Fellow, "It better to do it on a volunteer basis." Also, "They gave medals to people that messed it up."

I like this Lawrence Korb. He is still on.

1. Yes the draft date IS June 15
and you think people will truly connect the fact that they lied?

On the bright side, this will inflame campuses.

2. Neocons
I looked at that website before the election and decided they sounded like the neocons who want to spread their new world order. Of course they want to expand the military.

3. FYI that is the nest for these raptors
Edited on Wed Mar-30-05 01:31 PM by nadinbrzezinski
in fact let me give you a section of what is about to go up on the blog

Now for those who do not know this, the Project for a New American Century is Neo Con Central and they are now asking for an increase in the size of our military forces. Given that our volunteer military is on the brink of collapse and we don't have new volunteers signing up as fast as they should just to replace current troops, where exactly do you think our new Empire builders will get the troops?

Can you say DRAFT? Good, that is where the troops are going to come from, After all we do need troops to build the Empire these Neo Cons also propose in their site, called “Rebuilding Amerca's Defenses.” Do not expect the so called Lib'rul Media to tell you this, for they are AWOL, or worst have deserted their post.

Oh and I also left the names in there so you can meet them, and know them. There are other names missing from this missive, but not from their 1998 letter to President Clinton urging the President to invade Iraq. Some of those names will sound very familiar to you. They are: Paul Wolfowitz, Jeb Bush, John Bolton, Mr Feith, Donald Rumsfeld... Dick Chenney...

Do you see a pattern here?

6. The rightwingers will just deny it
They all say the military is fine and it doesn't matter blah blah blah. Everyting is just lovely in Bushland so all worry about Terri Schavio.

5. You got it
Bush is still beating those war bongo's. Anybody who doesn't watch CSPAN or keep up with everything will find out about the draft when it's too late. No way in hell Bush and his camp are going to publically ask people to join the military. Nobody wants to join and that's been shown. I've told people on the right the draft is coming back but of course they all believed Bush. It'll happen someway or another.

4. NOMINATED Quote:
Article 1, Section 8 of the Constitution places the power and the duty to raise and support the military forces of the United States in the hands of the Congress. That is why we, the undersigned, a bipartisan group with diverse policy views, have come together to call upon you to act. You will be serving your country well if you insist on providing the military manpower we need to meet America's obligations, and to help ensure success in carrying out our foreign policy objectives in a dangerous, but also hopeful, world.
