Well, all of you McCain supporters, it looks like you going to get what you wantED, World War III, the draft and fighting on American Soil.
Unfortunately, for most of us under 35, we will be drafted and put into war and most of here in America, do have bomb shelters.
GOD HELP US!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Oh, shit did McCain get elected while I wasn't paying attention?! Welp, good thing I'm a veteran and can't be drafted, I guess.

Considering McCain's comments of bringing back the draft and his promise of "more wars", is there any doubt where this man is planning on taking us?

The neocon nincompoops never saw a war they didn't like, & the Candidate Manchurian McCain is just the one they've been waiting for, to fire-up the Cold War by moving into Iran.
The CFTC has finally caught up w/ some of the speculators in the energy futures markets on the NYMEX.
Vitol, a Swiss energy conglomerate has their teat in a wringer along w/ several other invest bank war profiteers. But the CFTC doesn't have any control over the the Dark Mkts. in London that are owned by an outfit in Phoenix AZ, or the one in Dubai either.
Told 'ya so.
So that should take away some of the exigence for war.
On the old Randi Rhodes Website when I was chuckster, pre-invasion & occupation of Iraq, I said that all of the PSAs Saddam had agreed to, previous to his sudden demise, would still be legal & binding contracts.
Well it seems the Iraqis have declared that all of the recent PSA contracts made w/ the American multinational BigOil cartel, are null & void.
Iraq has renewed the contracts that Saddam had made w/ China. I don't know about the other contracts w/ the French, etc.
China has been using their soft power all around the world to purchase all of the oil they can get their hands on.
The Chinese view oil as a strategic asset, while Bu$hCo still views it as a fingible commodity.
China has their national oil company to back-up their national security.
We depend on the private conglomeration of a consolidated, multinational BigOil corpratocracy, that owes no allegiance to this nation, to grease the skidz of our economy & national security.
Elected greedheadz sold all of our Naval Petroleum Reserves in the Continental US, to private companies. The NPRs were set aside by TR I think, for times of war only, but our elected representatives saw fit to undermine our national security w/ their bargain basement sale.
Unless we use our innovation to convert to a new clean & renewable source of power, we will have to reinstitute conscription, if we are to compete in the future oil wars. McCain = conscription.
It will cost a King's ransom just to rebuild our ground forces.

Prescription for conscription . . . Rx McSame
He has already said @ least 3 times during this campaign, that he's in favor of the draft.
The all volunteer force is against it. They don't want to be fighting alongside someone that doesn't want to be there. But @ least 3/4 of the GIs in Iraq know that we shouldn't be there, & they don't want to be there either.
The Iraqis have told us time and again, that they want us out.
But Bu$hCo has finally decided to settle on redeployment for most of our forces in Iraq, in 2011.
What ever happened to "we don't think it wise to advertise our date of withdrawal.?"
Whatever.
There is always Iran, & that should fire-up the Cold War by torqueing off the Rusians & the Chinese, in one swell foop.

Clearly I've been playing it too much, because I saw the title of this thread as "World of Warcraft."

All you young Republicans, and people of draft age voting for McCain, you now don't have to be called a Chicken Hawks anymore. You will now be able to prove your true love of the country if McCain wins. So, win your number comes up I hope to see you at the induction office. Or will you say you have a boil on your ass like Limbaugh....
