Draft

Filed under: Military — Bunker @ 7:01 am

Joseph Farah believes that if Kerry is elected, there will be a draft. Of course, that’s not how the Democrats are playing it. They have introduced bills in Congress to reinstitute a draft, yet accuse Bush of planning to do it regardless.

Farah’s thesis is that the folks in the military will depart in droves, as they did when Clinton took over. The difference is that in 1992, the military was in a drawn-down cycle as part of the “Peace Dividend” that came with the fall of communism in Eastern Europe.

We don’t have that luxury right now, unless President Kerry determines we don’t need to prosecute the current war.

Maybe he has already decided that.

  1. ‘Maybe’ he’s decided to pull out?

    Kerry wants out of the war.
