Are you sure America is under conservative ideologies right now? What makes you believe that? Did you consult your nextdoor neighbor to find out what their ideas are? Do you have a problem coming to conclusions on your own that you have to consult others in different countries? How ever did you make it through school?

to try and salvage this thread I will give you the first intelligent answer.

The draft isn't something people want to start, but it is necessary when the country is in a major war which endangers your way of life (ie. WWI, WWII); I would give up freedoms for a little while to destroy the enemy and ensure that my family would be free for generations.

'Nam was not such a war (the VC couldn't harm us outside of Vietnam no matter how hard they tried); which is why there was much resentment over the draft.
Same goes for if there will be a draft for Iraq (which in unlikely).

Isn't Republicans on the right of the political spectrum? The opposite of the Democrast which would be on the left? In school I learned from teachers who knew what I didn't. I have basic knowledge which I showcased earlier about the original idea and history of conservatism.

Thanks for not being a dick and all. I could understand if the state of the world was in jeopardy.

this is all I'm saying on the debate; You people in Canada, do you plan on moving down by the time the draft might reinstated? Untill then don't fucking worry about what we do. I know your guys are probally shittin' your pants saying 'well you invaded Iraq, blah blah' but let me tell you that when you fly a plane into a building and kill 2000 people, then harbor the fuckers that did it, you can almost gurantee we're gonna be fucking some shit up.

Nobody said they would be unwilling to protect their country, only that they would be unwilling to be forced into it. Personally, I would definitely join up if my country was under threat of invasion and it was TRULY for the sake of defense. But personally, I have no interest in laying down my life just to remove some petty tyrant on a far off shore. If the cause is just, the people will fight for it of their own free will, and you can't ask people to lay down their lives if they aren't convinced that their lives are really being valued.

Why not invade Canada then. Everyone thinks we harbor terrorists too.
