The Back-Door Draft

Meanwhile, back in the Army, they are expanding the use to stop-loss to involuntarily keep soldiers in the Army.

Funny. If you leave early, they call it "desertion" (unless you're in the Alabama Air National Guard and your father is a rich congressman named George H.W. Bush). So why isn't it called a "draft" or "involuntary servitude" when they force you to stay in past the point you signed up for?

Where are all the young members of the college Republicans and the Federalist Society? Why are they not doing their sacred duty, or would they just rather paste a flag sticker on their vehicles and flap tier keyboards? (Secretary Rice, we've got some cowards over here for you to yell at.)
