Update 3:24 on 10/9
For those who missed this wonderful word, here it is in context thanks to the Commission on Presidential Debates website:

Bush is answering the question on the draft, and starts talking about the "New Army"
"...For instance, we're flying unmanned vehicles that can send real- time messages back to stations in the United States. That saves manpower, and it saves equipment.

It also means that we can target things easier and move more quickly, which means we need to be lighter and quicker and more facile and highly trained.

Now, forget all this talk about a draft. We're not going to have a draft so long as I am the president."
