Send the profiteers to fight the country's wars

Thursday, May 22, 2008 11:21 AM EDT

The Republicans are opposed to taxing the rich to pay for veterans' education. Fine, don't tax them. Bring back the draft without deferments. Let's draft the sons of the rich. Let them serve on the front lines in combat with the sons of the poor.

If the special interest can profiteer off the war, they can fight the country's wars.

" I don't agree with Ron above, not at all, but I am also really glad dd is not MY doctor. What a condescending, caustic, sarcastic attitude to fellow human beings. "
