Yes, it sounds like this Senator has taken the Rovian Fear Mongering 101 course. The discussion on the draft issue has become WAY overblown, and basically turned into a scare tactic to drum up anti-war support. I'm not saying its bad, but take it for what it is. The draft isnt coming back unless we find ourselves in another world war. I know alot of you are ready to beleive we are on the brink of nuclear apocolypse... but we're not there yet.
