No, he hasn't and there is something to be said for the draft. As it
stands now, we are asking some of our service men and women to return to
Iraq for their fourth and fifth times. It seems to me, that is asking too
much of too few. War is a national endeavor, and the risks should be
spread nationally. Asking a few to risk it all, over, and over, and over,
is bull****.

More people fled the military under peace during the Clinton administration
than have under fire during the Bush administration.

People join the military to fight.
