A toast at midnight. To what was. To what could have been. To what is no longer. To creating something new to remember today by.

A toast to you.

Bottoms up.

Pending Draft Legislation Targeted for Spring 2005
The Draft will Start in June 2005

There is pending legislation in the House and Senate (twin bills: S 89 and HR 163) which will time the program's initiation so the draft can begin as early as Spring 2005 -- just after the 2004 presidential election. The administration is quietly trying to get these bills passed now, while the public's attention is on the elections, so our action on this is needed immediately.

$28 million has been added to the 2004 Selective Service System (SSS) budget to prepare for a military draft that could start as early as June 15, 2005. Selective Service must report to Bush on March 31, 2005 that the system, which has lain dormant for decades, is ready for activation. Please see website: http://www.sss.gov/perfplan_fy2004.html to view the sss annual performance plan - fiscal year 2004.

The pentagon has quietly begun a public campaign to fill all 10,350 draft board positions and 11,070 appeals board slots nationwide.. Though this is an unpopular election year topic, military experts and influential members of congress are suggesting that if Rumsfeld's prediction of a "long, hard slog" in Iraq and Afghanistan [and a permanent state of war on "terrorism"] proves accurate, the U.S. may have no choice but to draft.

Congress brought twin bills, S. 89 and HR 163 forward this year, http://www.hslda.org/Legislation/National/2003/S89/default.asp entitled the Universal National Service Act of 2003, "to provide for the common defense by requiring that all young persons [age 18--26] in the United States, including women, perform a period of military service or a period of civilian service in furtherance of the national defense and homeland security, and for other purposes." These active bills currently sit in the committee on armed services.

Dodging the draft will be more difficult than those from the Vietnam era.

College and Canada will not be options. In December 2001, Canada and the U.S. signed a "smart border declaration," which could be used to keep would-be draft dodgers in. Signed by Canada's minister of foreign affairs, John Manley, and U.S. Homeland Security director, Tom Ridge, the declaration involves a 30-point plan which implements, among other things, a "pre-clearance agreement" of people entering and departing each country. Reforms aimed at making the draft more equitable along gender and class lines also eliminates higher education as a shelter. Underclassmen
would only be able to postpone service until the end of their current semester. Seniors would have until the end of the academic year.

Even those voters who currently support US actions abroad may still object to this move, knowing their own children or grandchildren will not have a say about whether to fight. Not that it should make a difference, but this plan, among other things, eliminates higher education as ashelter and includes women in the draft.

The public has a right to air their opinions about such an important decision.

I'm sorry....DRAFT!?

The possibility has definitely evoked more of an emotional reaction than anything Bush has proposed so far. This isn't supposed to happen again.

Take my hand take my whole heart too
'Cause i can't help falling in love with you

last night in my dream i was at home. and i woke up thinking i was in my bed and i couldn't remember what my dorm looked like. then i opened my eyes.

i miss everyone at home a lot.

i just switched my schedule around and from now on i will finish class fridays at 10:30 am and not begin class again 'til 8 am tuesday morning. that means i have very long weekends. that means maybe i can come home soon.

IT IS SO BEAUTIFUL HERE.

just because it's been a while...

2003-09-01T10:03:25Z

everything is so good. so so good. and guess what...i'm actually happy.

of course there are the little complications, like a crush thats getting in the way of something real and worries about other people, but at this point, with 18 days left in L.A., theres no use dwelling when everything else is so perfect.

because i have a bestfriend and a boyfriend and strong, fun, real friends and i don't feel lonely because i never doubt that they want me around.
