I'm willing to go.

I remember old-fashioned wars. When there was a draft. And I was in danger of having to serve my country. I say, let’s bring back the draft. As a ploy to avert war. Really, it’s the people that have to fight war that generally oppose war. Instead, the politicians that don’t have to fight – they're the ones clamoring for war. I want every politician that votes for war to be compelled to serve. To put their lives in peril. To demonstrate their patriotism. Thereby, setting a fine example for the rest of us. If they go, I’m willing to go. –Jim Broede
