U.S. Plans Targeted Draft for Computer Personnel
waytoomuchcoffee writes "The US Selective Service System is drawing up plans for a 'special skills draft'. There is already a system in place to draft health care personnel, and this system would be expanded in order to 'rapidly register and draft' computer specialists."
Perhaps if you have no sense of what it means to serve your country in the first place, you ought to strongly consider moving to Canada, or some third world country where you belong.
Religious reasons are one thing. But a draft will only happen in a time of national peril. If you are not willing to fight for, and possibly die for, your nation when its existence is threatened you are a coward. I feel sorry for you.
Libertarians were always a lunatic fringe. I'm strongly concidering going to the CP's VA State Convention on the 24th and attempting a seat as a party elector for the electoral college.
I don't know where my sis has gone off to in order to ask her the bill numbers or i would cite them.
Just be sure and stay there once the people that are brave enough to stay and fight are done. :-)
/. nerdies lugging laptops through the mud in North Korea!
BWAHAHAHAHAHAH!!!
Guess what? Bush will be drafting his 65 million rightwing moron Christians to invade the Middle East next...
And you can't do anything about it, can you? Vote him out this year? HAH! Not with fraudulent voting machines in place - and the CIA ready with another "terrorist incident" in case the vote gap is too wide for vote fraud to work.
Oh, yeah, we got Bush for another four years - and then Jeb for eight more coming up. You WILL be fighting a nuclear war in North Korea. Or slogging through sand in Syria and Saudi Arabia and Iran. As Halliburton and Cheney clean up the bucks - and everybody else's job goes to India.
Welcome to the New World Order, suckers. I spent eight years in prison after trying to knock it down. Now it's your turn. But you don't have the balls or the brains.

I'm not going to plug obviously biased web sites, or claim that my beliefs are superior to yours. But i must disagree with your psychosis. If our troops are being killed in a foreign country instead of being welcomed with open arms, that country doesn't like us (whether we're there or not). And personally if my country calls on me, feeds me, pays me, and allows me the chance to protect it's people, i wouldn't turn it down.
People in the world want to kill us.
People in the world don't like ANYTHING Jews and Christians do. In fact they teach their children that everything we do (including providing foreign aid) is a way to kill them.
Extremists will force or even kill their own Muslims and Islamic cohorts to make them go to war or sacrifice themselves for the Good of a handful of rich Extremists.
If you want to argue about any of these points, i can give you hard facts instead of pointing you to biased websites.
As if there's anything honorable about what the US military these days.
