Do you think all the executive orders given by Bush are a lead up to a Draft and Iran?

Question

Is this the real reason for telling everybody to shut-up about the war, "we will arrest all dissenters."
Plus the announcement that Al-Qaeda is growing and he is NOT going to stop the war. Pushing fear on America so that we will not "resist" it too much.

Answer 1

The draft might come soon with the impending invasion of Iran.

Answer 2

I do think all the new talk about Iran is to get the American people used to the idea so that he can go to war with yet another country before his time in office is over. I also think the draft is inevitable because he has screwed things up so bad with Iraq that people are not so quick to sign up for military duty.

Answer 3

No.

A draft would require Congressional authorization. It's not within the scope of executive authority. See Article I Section 8.

As for arresting dissenters, that's also not legal. But whether it happens (again) or not is independent of Bush's executive orders.

Answer 4

George W. Bush is famous for the use of his bullhorn. The would-be president, selected rather than elected, was a cheerleader at Yale university where he honed his public relations persona which he blatantly put into service in New York City on the aftermath of September 11, 2001. Never missing an opportunity to project a self-image to cover up his ineptitude, George W. Bush turned New York's tragedy into his personal political capital, and the devastation of New York's twin towers by Al Queda into the devastation of Iraq. George W. Bush, himself, admitted that Iraq had nothing to do with the World Trade Center attacks. With the current horrific aftermath of hurricane Katrina, in large part a result of his regime's incompetence and greed, the G.W. bullhorn is finally being revealed more and more for the bullshit that it is. George W. Bush is sounding like bullshit even to his established base. The imposter in the White House can only fool the people for just so long.

Answer 5

Yeah, I know: having to serve a couple of years in service to your country would be SUCH a severe strain on today's 'Guitar Hero' generation. I mean, really! a few months without being able to play with your Crackberry every five minutes would be tantamount to torture! We have a generation of spoiled brat gutless wonders, I swear.

And stupid, too. Bush has made NO MOVE whatsoever toward bringing back the draft. And I wouldn't want a draft, since we'd have to put up with countless thousands of worthless whiners among the fabulous people we have in our volunteer military today.

Stay home, close to your over-indulgent mommies, kiddos. Uncle Sam certainly wouldn't want you to muss up your metro-manicures.

Answer 6

I can honestly say no . I have spoken with many people and have posted some evidence on my 360 that showcase war with Iran will be nuclear . The question is what will be the justification to use nuclear weapons ?

Answer 7

I dont think world opinion would tolerate an invasion of Iran but missile strikes well you can slide those in anytime you feel like it. Al-Queda in Iraq was a self fulfilling prophecy. Now that they are actually there we have some great excuse for staying.

Answer 8

Bush (& Bin Laden) both need the war on terror to survive but I highly doubt that Bush would start a draft because his daughters would be eligible.

Answer 9

I doubt it. I don't think there will be another draft in the foreseeable future. Iran...that's a different story.

Answer 10

Just when did I enter the twilight zone.
