Return Of The Draft?

October 27, 2004 | ISSUE 40•43

As the war in Iraq drags on, some Americans fear reinstatement of the military draft. What do you think?

  • Well, okay. As long as it's only a small draft and then they promise to stop.

  • A draft would be great. Going down there to sign myself up would be such a hassle.

  • If I get drafted, I hope they put me on one of the swift boats. From what I gather, those guys are never in any danger.

  • If I must submit to a draft, I hope I'm not picked by Cincinnati.

  • Well, no one is getting drafted until after the election, so there's no use worrying about it now.

    Chris Daniels

  • That's it. I'm voting for the candidate who would flip-flop on sending my son to die, rather than the one who'd do it without hesitation.
