    McCain Supports Military Draft

    Greetings everyone!

    In a recent meeting, McCain answered a question from the audience, and said he supports a draft! Thoughts? Concerns?

    http://thinkprogress.org/2008/08/20/...support-draft/

    Nice to meet you all.

    I'm concerned that you're a troll. And an idiot. Linking anything from thinkprogress, Huffington Post, DailyKos, MoveOn, etc., is a joke. They are desparate because their (and your) chosen ONE is struggling.


    McCain was agreeing that the status of veteran support is poor and needs to be improved.

    Re: McCain Supports Military Draft

    I'm undecided to tell you the truth, and a moderate.

    Well in that case, then Rush Limbaugh is a joke.

    If you watch the clip, McCain says "I agree with everything you said"

    And she said we need a draft.. It's not that hard to comprehend.

    EDIT: Not a troll, just loudspoken. I'm sure some of you are the same way. Please don't label me before knowing me. Thanks.

    THINK PROGRESS is not research; it is an "award winning" liberal blog site.

    I know, I was being objective to his viewpoint. Brought up a similar case on the other side.

    I actually think CNN is very neutral. I think the reason MSNBC gets touted as liberal is because Keith Olbermann has his 'special comments' which sometimes I agree with.. sometimes I don't.

    EDIT: I'll give that article a read, will post thoughts when done.

    ABC, CBS, NBC, CNN, and MSNBC are not cited as biased, but Fox News is cited biased, by their own former producer in fact. The results of the article are not conclusive or proven.

    Interesting though.

    Numb nuts...THINK PROGRESS touts its award on its "About Think Progress" page. It also touts its various "progressive" relationships with several "progressive" entities.
