1. And boy is it getting drafty

In the end, it may simply come down to a matter of math. In January, Bush told America's soldiers that "much more will be asked of you" in his second term, even as he openly threatened Iran with military action. Another war, critics warn, would push the all-volunteer force to its breaking point. "This damn thing is just an explosion that's about to happen," says Rangel. Bush officials "can say all they want that they don't want the draft, but there's not going to be that many more buttons to push."

2. One could write a letter to the editor every day about "the crazies"
in this administration and how they have negatively impacted all aspects of our nation and give detailed examples in foreign and domestic policy and still half this country either isn't paying attention or simply doesn't care.

I despair for my country
