Judging from the honking and general goose chatter over my place of residence today, I'd say that John Kerry must be in Ohio threatening to pose as a Conservative again. Sure enough, according to NewsMax, the errant Senator is indeed in Ohio goose-hunting today. I suppose, if he did shoot any geese, they were the Liberals of the goose community... all the good Conservative geese have taken refuge farther south in Kentucky!
US Representative, Charlie Rangel (D-NY) is at it again. Rangel's prescription for fixing the ills we're feeling in Iraq is a draft . I have very mixed feelings about this. Conscription is conscription no matter what you choose to label it. Is that appropriate in a free country? On the flip side of this coin, I've often thought that compulsory national service would be a great idea for American kids right out of high school. It might have been a better start for me than learning to down beer at a Liberal Arts university! Two years in the service might give kids time to think about their future, learn higher levels of responsibility, and begin to take life more seriously. There are many countries who require some level of mandatory military service: Belarus, Chile, China, Croatia, Serbia, Russia, Iran, Lebanon, our neighbor Mexico, and our old buddy Germany, to name a few. Gee, now that I look at that partial list... aren't many of those countries Socialist or at battl...
