McCain on "The Draft"

McCain says only World War III would justify draft

It’s astonishing to see how brazenly incoherent John McCain is on the campaign trail. He says that only World War III would justify a military draft. Yet one of his campaign planks is mandatory government service for all young adults. He can’t abide taking the freedom of young Americans for minor wars, but it’s fine if it’s to help out a soup kitchen? (By all means, people should help out soup kitchens, the issue is taking somebody’s freedom to do it.)

Does John McCain have any principles at all? His policies look like a random conglomeration of half-baked ideas pulled from a schizophrenic mind and stuck together with poll-tested duct tape.
