Hey, it’ll cost jobs! One job in particular is threatened.
War is good for business. The only way to get these chickenhawk fuckers to stop thinking invasion is the answer to everything is to re-institute the draft, so their own sons will be at risk, instead of a bunch of strangers with Hispanic surnames.
By the way, I love how that article called Obama “wrong and naive” for thinking the Iraqis could defend themselves, when training them to do exactly that was the neocon rationale for our extended occupation of Iraq.

*Now, come on Wall Street, don’t be slow
Why, man, this is war a-go-go
There’s plenty good money to be made
Supplying the Army with the tools of the trade
Just hope and pray that when they drop the bomb
They drop it on the Viet Cong
And it’s 1, 2, 3, what are we fighting for ?..
*Don’t be silly, rich kids don’t get drafted : they’re in college !
Doesn’t matter anymore. You can still be drafted (if it were reinstated) even if you are in college.
The wealthy and those willing to shit their pants to avoid the draft, will. The thing to do is apply the draft to men and women equally, and see how casually we start wars.

Too bad for them women are over 50% of voters.
“Secretly”?
Lou Dobbs: “Obama intentionally colluded with Mexican and Central American governments to bring all of these undocumented children into the country.” He doesn’t seem to have an answer as to “Why”, although Bill O’Reilly wouldn’t have asked that question.
Not a stupid Idea of the day …Idaho Republican Convention can’t agree on anything so quits in disgust
It really is amazing how just a little good news can make a person so damn cheerful! 
If I’d known that I could ACTUALLY wish chaos on the GOP, I’d have tried it long ago.
They did it ALL BY THEMSELVES. I’m proud of the little bastards.
No, I think they had a little help from AFP astroturfers – hey, maybe AFP is a false-flag monkey-wrenching group?
As true then as it is now:
:::Terrorist fist bump to TonySinclair.:::
Their first mistake was holding their convention in Moscow.
Waukesha County District Attorney and candidate for state attorney general Brad Schimel thinks representative government means buying the government you want for yourself. :smack:
That link seems to be broken, is this the story?
