Who's Afraid Of The Big, Bad Draft?
The Real Life Destro himself, Oliver North, that's who!
He thinks that if gay people (who already serve in the military, BTW) actually started to admit that they were gay in public, then the straight soldiers would turn into mush and trample each other trying to leave the military. Which means that we'll have to have a draft in order to replenish our ranks.
Me? I have a feeling that if we had kept the draft, we probably wouldn't still be talking about withdrawing fully from the two wars we're involved with now. Because, you know, we might not have fought them throughout Bush's two terms.
Anyway, Media Matters sets Mr. North straight.
