Footnote on the Military Draft

Buried in the news about whether or not a military draft will be reinstated just after the November election (as is currently rumored) is this curious statement on the Selective Service System's website:

"...both the President and the Secretary of Defense have stated on more than one occasion that there is no need for a draft for the War on Terrorism or any likely contingency, such as Iraq."

I find it rather interesting that Selective Service is making a clear distinction between "the War on Terrorism" and the conflict in Iraq. Bush and Rumsfeld certainly are saying no such thing. I'm guessing that heads will soon roll at Selective Service over their unfortunate use of the word "or" in the above statement.
