Happy uh.... Anniversary

On this day in 1792, the U.S. passed its first military draft.

And on or about this date in 1968, George W. Bush did everthing possible he could to avoid it. And his little pal, Dick, too. And Tom Delay. And a shitload of these ultra-righteous people always telling us what's good for America (which always translates into what's good for their own pockets and/or re-elections).
