An Excellent Post At Stop The ACLU

J.J. Jackson* | September 24, 2005

This is an excellent post by Gribbit over at Stop the ACLU talking about how the NYCLU’s campaign against military recruitment at schools would result in the one thing that the left REALLY wants even though they say they don’t - a draft.

Lets first start by explaining the alternatives to the current recruiting practices.

If military recruiters were to not be permitted to contact students in school and in their homes, a significant drop in the numbers of volunteer recruits would happen. And to secure this nation, we must at minimum replace those who are retiring from military service or elect to not re-enlist. And under these conditions, it would be made necessary to draft recruits from the Selective Service rolls through lottery.

This is something that the useful idiots of the left don’t get. But their leadership understands all too well.

It’s all part of the assault on our troops and our military and our country and an attempt to destroy it from within. Just like when Elanor Clift called our troops mercenaries for being paid.

“And it doesn’t have a nice ring to it. We call it ‘volunteers,’ but we’re basically paying people to serve their country. And if you’re going to pay people and have a mercenary Army, you’re going to have to pay the market rate. And so the bounties are going up - more money for tuition, higher enlistment bonuses - and I think it’s appropriate.” - Eleanor Clift Takes Issue With Volunteer Army

or like when the members of the Progressive Caucus proposed legislation to require military service and then had the balls to accuse George Bush of trying to reinstate the draft during the 2004 election.

They want a draft. And they’ll do ANYTHING they can in order to get it.
