5. RW Message board talking points
1. Attack Kerry's anti-war activities
2. Bring up Clinton's draft dodging
3. F-102's are more dangerous to fly than Vitnam combat
4. Kerry's medals were bogus and wounds minor scratches
5. If it was important it would have been an issue in 2000
6. If service was important, why didn't it help Dole vs. Clinton
7. Kerry is a war criminal

1. Bush is a war hero. If you don't think so, you hate the national guard.
2. Bush is a war hero. If you don't think so, you hate America.
3. Bush is a war hero. If you don't think so, you don't hate terrorists.
4. Kerry is not a war hero, because he doesn't create war.


The Republicans really need to get over themselves, because fewer and fewer Republicans will have any military experience at all. They use the military as a pawn and force people to serve.

Step One: Ruin the Economy. check!
Step Two: Outsource Jobs. check!
Step Three: Drain Education and Social Services. check!
Step Four: Hype patriotism. check!
Step Five: Divert military benefits for personal profit. check!
Repeat Step Four. check!check!check!

Who needs an actual draft, when there are no longer any options for young people in the workforce? Who needs an official draft, when it's easier and more profitable to force an economic draft?
