Attention: DRAFT. DRAFT. DRAFT.
He's admitted he wants it. Now let's make sure we drop it into casual conversations with strangers whenever possible.

5. He said "These young people that are in this crowd,
my friends, I'm going to be asking you to serve" and "I'm sorry to tell you this but there are going to be more wars" etc. etc. etc. This just scares the hell out of me.

14. "Pick your city"
Scott Ritter's comments were chilling. Excellent video & everyone should forward it far & wide!

2. I did say he was Satan....McCain has yet to prove me wrong.
I am truly terrified of that man. I cannot tell you how much he scares me and the reinactment of the draft has said it all.

3. here's the commercial I want to see
"So your oldest just graduated high school, you must be so proud. You've always voted republican because of the strong family values they represent. But <show video of McCain saying that there will be wars and more wars and his mention of a draft>. Do you want to sacrifice your family for their values? <show video of oil company profits and McCain and Bush cozying up to the Saudi Royal Family members> None of their family members have had to die, why should yours?

6. I am actually trying my hand at a Youtube video on this...
I have the text of it (all the quotes of his I'd use with dates and places) fully fleshed out and only need to clip the video/audio and get the background music made to my liking... which I'm working on in Garageband right now. I can't really tell when it'll be done but when it's done you bet I will post it here. What I have in mind is very damning and uses all of his quotes against him in a succinct fashion. I am fairly inexperienced when it comes to video making though so it might be somewhat slow going compared to others who have done this before. I really do want to see this out there though so I am trying my best. :)

7. that would be a good one...
suggest it to the Obama team. This needs to get out big time.
As the mom of 19-22 year olds, I know this is huge with young adults
and all the Mom's I know. There has been much talk of finding a way
out of Dodge if McInsane gets in. My sons will not be some idiot's fodder.

8. Good one!
And what should be included in there, too, is that video clip of bush on the dais at some white-tie banquet, extolling his base - "the haves and the have-mores."

10. How else is he going to staff wars in Iraq, Afghanistan, Iran and Russia...
The draft is necessary for McCain's foreign policy plans. Plain and simple.

A vote for McCain is a vote for the draft.
