Rock the Vote My Happy Ass

From the Houston Chronicle and LA Times:

WASHINGTON - An army of new voters received a startling call to serve recently, when one of the largest nonpartisan groups trying to increase voting by young people sent fake draft cards to nearly 640,000 e-mail addresses.

"You've been drafted" was the subject line of the message sent by Rock the Vote. The message contained an image of a draft card addressed to the recipient and warned, "real cards may be in the mail soon if the situation doesn't improve."

Nonpartisan, my ass. Rock the Vote is as left liberal as you can get. And the whole draft issue started when two Demo-rat congress smucks introduced draft bills in a cynical attempt to politicize the Iraq war, and now the Demo-rats are trying to scare stupid booze soaked halfwit college students into voting for Kerry. I guess their grasp of history is insufficient to realize that every draft this century was instituted by Demo-rat presidents.

But nobody ever went broke by overestimating the stupidity of America's youth.
