Here is the headline, America can wage war again, alone: Bush. Here is the first paragraph:

The US would wage war again, and alone if necessary, to ensure the long-term safety of the world, President George W. Bush said in an interview published today.

Long-term safety of the world? If I had a son coming of age right now I would be really scared. The draft appears to be coming back and now we know why. War without end, Amen! The story linked below about kids names being turned over to military recruiters by the school districts. Not to mention this article from a few weeks ago, Will U.S. Bring Back the Draft?, seem to make my point. One more thing from this article. In the fourth paragraph we read:

The paper quoted Bush as saying US forces and their coalition allies had ended the tyranny of Saddam Hussein in Iraq, smashed the grip of Osama bin Laden?‚’s al Qaida network in Afghanistan and forced the UN to stop turning its back on terror.

Now I'm no expert BUT doesn't this administration continues to blame all the death going on in Iraq on Saddam loyalists. If the tyranny of Saddam has ended how is he still commanding the insurgents? Exactly where is Osama? Are you aware that the Taliban appears to be back and that we still have soldiers dying there? Which leads me to ask the question what the hell is this guy talking about and does anyone believe him? This sounds like some guy that never reads the paper and just has someone tell him what they deem important. Maybe I'm just getting a sense of what's going on.
