Jeez MMM.. I was focusing on the likeness between the two arguments that's all.

Are you just ignoring everything I said? They likely rotated people in on tours of duty. I can't imagine it would be much different to serving out a tour on a ship today.

Depends if the droids on the DS had free will.

The Clone Wars is a bit of a misnomer, as it was Republic Clones vs. Seperatist Droids, and I guess the war ended with Order 66, with the Clones basically switching over to the Seperatist / Empire.
I thought the Republic was the Empire.

The Seperatists were just pawns used by Palpatine in order to gain control. An external threat which justified the militarization of the Republic.
