Why do Liberals want to impose the Draft when the Army in the feild is dedicated and the best in our history?

Question

Enlistments are up and reenlistments are up in a winnable war.

Answer 1

they may be the best, but there just aren't enough of them.

Answer 2

While you can put words together and form one question and one sentence, both your question and your sentence are absolutely wrong on all accounts.

You are so clueless as to the state of affairs, I'm not going to even attempt to explain the fallacies of your "thought" process.

EDIT:

Okay, I'm just updating computers, and am a little bored, so here, read this:

1. SOME people in government circles think the draft is needed. Not all, and not only liberals.

2. The Army (and the military) are dedicated...they have been forever, no matter what. That's their job. To serve. That's what they enlisted for. True, a draft will take some of that 100% dedication away. And I'm not for the draft (I am liberal), yet, how many times can you send the same person back to battle? How many times can you extend those deployments? Without that soldier feeling disgruntled, and without potential recruits seeing that and saying "Thanks, but no thanks".

3. Enlistments are not up.

4. I don't know the stats as to reenlistments, and neither do you, I assume, because you didn't drop a source here. But I guarantee you if the Army wasn't offering progressively more outrageous re-up bonuses, re-ups would be falling like a duck that Cheney shot out of the sky.

5. Winnable war, huh? Explain to me how we toppled Germany, Italy, and Japan in less time than we have had in Iraq, and the situation is getting worse, not better?

And, we are still in need of a definition of "winning". Right now, our soldiers are in between two sects itching to wage outright war against each other.

The band-aide isn't big enough. Sorry.

EDIT ONCE MORE:

Are you in the Army? Are you planning on joining? Are you willing to lose your arms, your legs, your eyes, your life for the cause?

Answer 3

1.- Because we are running out of volunteers.
2.- Because the troops are commiting suicide in record numbers for many reasons, including the fact that they are being re-deployed over & over.
3.- Because if we're to continue with this insane war we need a better cross section of people throughout the population to man our military.

Answer 4

They don't. But, the hypothetical threat of the draft can be assumed to errode support for the war among young men who might be subject to it, and thier parents.

Answer 5

they want to turn Americans against our military
