Without that perception, the idea of a draft will be politically unacceptable and unviable, believe me.

You forget that the irony quotes are not being used inside the White House and that except for some brave individuals, the Republican majority in Congress seems to be in lockstep with Bush who still seems to still be listening to his Vulcans.
BTW, I am assuming that the term "Vulcan" refers to the "God of the forge" in Roman mythology. If not, then the (&*%* freaks should turn in their pointy ears for a severe lack of logic.
