I had the pleasure of meeting Dr. Peter Phillips, director of Project Censored, at the fundraiser last weekend. He spoke with passion about the lesser-known evils of the world, and particularly within the Bush administration, given that this was a Kerry rally.

I wrote about Project Censored recently. I mentioned the “censored” item that most grabbed my attention: a Salon.com story about the reinstatement of a military draft: Oiling up the draft machine? (local mirror).

Since then, President Bush stated clearly during the debates that there would be no draft:

I hear there’s rumors on the Internets (sic) that we’re going to have a draft. We’re not going to have a draft, period. The all-volunteer army works.

See additional analysis of the draft issue.
