Below is the newsmax article about john joann edwards opposition to the draft. I agree with this beast here but he is still a piece of garbage.
Democratic presidential candidate John Edwards lashed out Saturday against the suggestion by President Bush's new war adviser that it is worth considering a return to a military draft.
The adviser, Army Lt. Gen. Douglas Lute, suggested Friday in an interview with National Public Radio's "All Things Considered" that a draft might relieve the frequent tours for U.S. forces in Iraq and Afghanistan that have stressed the all-volunteer force.
Edwards, a former North Carolina senator said that Lute's remarks show "the true danger of the administration's breathtaking failures in Iraq and around the world," according to a campaign statement.
"Now, instead of ending this war and doing what is right for our troops, their families and the nation, President Bush is floating the idea of a draft that would send more young Americans to Iraq," Edward said.
