#1 I assumed they would say McCain wanted babies so he could bathe in their blood to keep his youthful appearance.

#2 Even without the draft - an all volunteer military - the lefty dems always consider soldiers to be children incapable of making up their own minds.

#3 Last I've heard it was the Democrats who wanted to implement the draft.

Besides I think the man the child grows up to be would rather go to war then be forcibly tied to his mother's apron strings.

#4 "Besides I think the man the child grows up to be would rather go to war then be forcibly tied to his mother's apron strings."

True, but his "Nanny State" wants him tied to HER apron strings.....for life.

#5 Didn't you kids know? The Republicans oppose abortion because it deprives them of cannon fodder down the road. We Democrats are humane - we favored your liquidation in the womb, when you wouldn't have felt a thing.

#7 I hope this is seen widely.

Nothing puts people off the left faster than seeing the left.

#8 Tacky ad, unconvincing actress = backfire

And FYI, I am going to raise my kids with the tools to make critical and thought out decisions to be able to see through this BS, and if that includes the military we would be so lucky.

Using kids to hide behind my kids, kiss my FA! Thats fisticuffs if said to my face.

#9 And Obama supporter Charlie Rangle wants a draft to ensure your baby has no choice about government service.

#10 ...the lefty dems always consider ~~everyone~~ soldiers to be children incapable of making up their own minds.

Fixed...

#11 Yup, yup, yup...with these people it's always the same old thing - if an 18-year old man or woman wants to join the military, see the world, learn how to be a productive citizen, add discipline to their life, and maybe make some money for college along the way (as well as earning a degree and a learning a trade), they're too young and naive to be capable of making the decision rationally.

But if she's 13 and wants an abortion, that's a wise choice and one she should be fully capable of making without the influence of her parents.

#12 They'll give 8 year olds condoms and abortions without parental notification, but they won't trust an 18 year old to make his own decision to defend his country. Where do these people come from?

#13 Where do these people come from?

Personally, I think they are spat from the deepest bowels of hell to bring civilization crashing down around mortal heads.

#17 McCain Wants Your Baby

A man is gotta eat.

#18 The ad is sophomoric. I don't think it is going to convince anyone unless they are already convinced, i.e. they are basically preaching to the ~~choir~~ leftocrats who tend to be sophomoric.

#19 Just another way of accussing McCain of being a "Baby Killer" Same tired accusation he has heard for years and years. Same greeting he got from the left after he got released from Hanoi. What's the matter MoveOn can't get any new material?

#20 I gotta believe there is some law buried in the books about public service unions not engaging in political activity. If not, propose one as soon as adults gain the congressional majority.

#21 not one existing, but usually they're "closed shop" for bargaining, and if you're a member who doesn't agree with their political leanings, you can refuse to pay or those fees - only for bargaining and admin costs
