Democrats support a Military draft and Obama will be forced to sign the bill.

Rangel Will Push To Bring Back The Draft, NY Dem Says Politicians Would Be More Reluctant To Launch Wars If Loved Ones, Neighbors Were At Risk - CBS News

(CBS/AP) A senior House Democrat said Sunday he will introduce legislation to reinstate the military draft, asserting that current troop levels are insufficient to sustain possible challenges against Iran, North Korea and Iraq.

"There's no question in my mind that this president and this administration would never have invaded Iraq, especially on the flimsy evidence that was presented to the Congress, if indeed we had a draft and members of Congress and the administration thought that their kids from their communities would be placed in harm's way," Rep. Charles Rangel (D-N.Y.) said on CBS News' Face the Nation.

Rangel, a veteran of the Korean War who has unsuccessfully sponsored legislation on conscription in the past, said he will propose the measure early next year.

At a time when some lawmakers are urging the military to send more troops to Iraq, "I don't see how anyone can support the war and not support the draft," he told Bob Schieffer.

The draft is a sure way to get us invovled in foreign wars. The draft was eliminated for the express purpose of not creating any more Vietnams. Rangel, like most leftist, thinks exactly the opposite of rational. If you have no draft and the people aren't in favor of a war then you have no military to fight with. With a draft it doesn't matter what the people think, you just go down to the hood, grab a few young men and you have your cannon fodder.

"Obama wants Military draft"

Once again our resident troll tries his hand at writing headlines for The National Enquirer...where the headline has nothing to do with the story.

Put forward a national service program
The volunteer Army is a way for us to maintain excellence. If we are deploying our military wisely, then a voluntary army is sufficient, although I would call for an increase in our force structure, particularly around the Army and the Marines, because we've got to put an end to people going on three, four, five tours of duty and the strain on families is enormous. The obligation to serve exists for everybody. That's why I've put forward a national service program that is tied to my tuition credit for students who want to go to college. You get $4000 every year to help you go to college. In return, you have to engage in some form of national service. Military service has to be an option. We have to have civilian options as well. Not just the Peace Corps, but one of the things that we need desperately are people in our foreign service speaking foreign languages in a lot of work that may not be hand-to-hand combat but just as critical in ensuring our long-term safety & security.

Democrats suck. Period. They all lie like their third summer homes depend on it.

McCain is already there. The sense here is WWIII, and so do you want a nappy-head nigger lying bigot as commander in chief or a career militant?
