- - - - - Reinstate The Draft? - - - - -
Rep. Charles Rangel (D-NY) proposes re-instating the draft, allegedly for "those who support the United States going into war would feel more readily the pain that's involved, the sacrifice that's involved, if they thought that the fighting force would include the affluent and those who historically have avoided this great responsibility."
What a crock!
This nit-wit wants to reinstate the draft so that the Dems will have something to demonstrate against that actually makes some sense!
He also wants a sullen, unhappy military, that he can point to and say "Reform is needed now!"
Look, Charley, the US military, the all volunteer military, has performed in an exemplary manner. And they are all, every single one, volunteers.
If it ain't broke, don't fix it.
