Susannah, Thank you posting this.
As a military member, I can tell you that there is no plan to re-up the draft.
The only persons speaking about it, congressionally, are Charles Rangle D-N.Y. and John Conyers, D-Mich. They are pushing this because they feel there are a disporpotionate number of African-Americans serving now. A draft would be more equitable in their eyes.
If a draft were to be reinstated, it would be by the Democrats. I do not see a need for it and would oppose it at this point. The majority of the people I work with support the War on Terror and will fight when called upon.
If a Communist sympathizer like Kerry is elected, a draft might be needed due to the mass exodus of the volunteer troops.
Flame away, but that is how I see it.
Dear Jet,
You are right, of course.
But what was amusing to me is how Susannah has totally confused the draft registration process which has been in continuous operation since the 40's, with an actual call-up.
Where has she and her friends been the past half-century?

Your thoughts?
That's because Rangle and Conyers wouldn't know a soldier or sailor if one stomped their ass.
BTTT!!!!!!!
