The Washington Post reports on draft rumors surrounding President Bush. Kerry has been claiming that Bush wants to bring back the draft, and apparently his supporters are naive enough to believe the crap that he is shoveling.
Two-thirds of all Kerry voters say a draft is at least fairly likely if Bush wins next month, while just 13 percent of the president's supporters agree. But those partisan differences largely vanish when voters were asked about Kerry: Roughly equal shares of the Democratic nominee's voters (26 percent) and Bush supporters (30 percent) believe a draft is possible if Kerry is elected.Of course in the entire article on the draft, the Washington Post fails to bring up the fact that there are proposals from Democrats in both the House and Senate to re-instate the draft. House Republicans have already nixed one of them.
