Homespun Symposium XII

The weekly question is once again revealed. From Southern Conservative:

During last year's presidential election, some people began talking about reinstating the draft. Most conservatives, such as myself, simply saw it as an effort on the part of liberals to distance young people from Bush. Many conservatives have responded to the issue by insisting that there won't be a draft. Yet, I think another question deserves consideration. Do we have the right to insist and expect that the war against terror will not require a draft? The draft was an important element in the winning of the first two World Wars. The war on terror is another global war. What gives our generation the right to expect to abstain from the same duty our grandfathers and forefathers were called to?

Please forward the permalink from your response to marvin at marvinhutchens dot com for inclusion in this weeks Homespun Symposium.

Enjoy.
