Since I am 18 now, according to the law, I must register for the draft within 30 days. Therefore, I registered today online. I must say however, registering was definitely not a fun feeling. Especially since the government has plans to reinstate the draft. ..

Ha ha, yeah right. The draft benefits practically no one, and it’s just politically unwise. The military wants to keep an all volunteer force, and Republicans certainly won’t do it if they plan to maintain their power and their widespread popular support. President Bush even said last night that “The military will be an all-volunteer army.”
This site (bushdraft.com) is definitely not credible. It calls sites like “commondreams.org” and “stopbushin2004.com” unbiased. How can a site called “Stop Bush in 2004″ be unbiased?!!!!
I’ll bet you $10 that there will not be a draft.
Oh yeah, did you register to vote?
If there isn’t going to be a draft, why is the government preparing for one? Of course Bush will say that there won’t be a draft. He doesn’t want to hurt his chances for re-election. While the draft will be immensely unpopular, if Bush gets elected, he won’t have to care about re-election. Therefore, he won’t be as hesitant to pass the draft (although Republicans in the Senate and House may block it).
Also, I did register to vote (a while back).
Finally, I bet you $10 that there will be a draft if Bush gets re-elected.
Pff, fine.
