The Draft discussed on "Majority Report" tonight

The guest was Daniel Ellsberg, who revealed "The Pentagon Papers" which exposed lies about Vietnam 30+ years ago.

Sam Seder and Janeane Garofalo asked him if it might be good to bring back the draft if this time there were no exemptions, and Senators/Congressmen's kids had to go fight in any wars.

Daniel Ellsberg said that Congress would write the rules, so of course they would put in exemptions for their kids.

3. No.

THat qualified as the definition of cannibalism. Cuz George is plastic and he's a turkey (sorry turkeys, didn't mean to insult you)

4. A caller raised the question

on talk of the nation and it was funny to hear the congress critters DODGE it, I wish I could have asked those two why the heck is the SSS being superfunded? Or is this just another piece of pork?
