Re: Will There Be A Draft?
1. 99%
2. Very, very, very likely.
3. debatable, but as long as Republican donors have kids in college, those deferalls will probably stay for now (hell, Dick Cheney got five deferments himself). Of course, if that doesn't work, or you can't get into college because the costs have gone through the roof, you can always do what Rush Limbaugh did and get a medical waiver due to a "pilonidal cyst" (which, in layman's terms, is known as "a boil on the ass"). Or, if you're really lucky, you can call your daddy the Congressman and have him skip you over the waiting list so you can get into the Texas Air National Guard. Then, you can go AWOL, do a whole lot of cocaine, get busted, do some community service, have your daddy's friends clean the record up, have your daddy's friends get you into the oil business, fail miserably, have your daddy's friends get you a baseball team, have your daddy's friends set you up to run for governor, have your daddy's friends set you up to run for president, have your brother and your campaign co-chair rig the Florida vote for you, have your daddy's friends stop the vote-count and illegally install you into the oval office, preside over the worst intelligence failure in American history (3000 dead), lie the nation into a war of international aggression (1500 American soldiers dead, tens of thousands of Iraqis dead), and then you too can be hailed by Republicans as God's Chosen Leader For The Free World. Then you can start drafting other people's kids to go fight and die.
