Headline: Bush Says He's Best Protection From Draft

After all, he avoided it. The White House said that even if they do begin a military draft that their website would list details on how best to avoid being drafted. For example, young men and women could find well-connected friends or go to Harvard to get an MBA. Bush suggested that if people of draft age sent him letters detailing how their faith guides their life that he might select "one or two" to be exempted from the draft. He said the letter selection idea seemed "like hard work," but that it was "the right thing to do."

Seriously, does the White House or anyone else not see the god damn hilarity of this headline?

Of course, this is just the old, let's turn their strength into their weakness strategy that Rove does so well. The democrats nominate a war hero, let's attack his war record. They bring up fears of a draft, let's say that they are the ones who will institute a draft.
