It would not. The entire thing would, by default, be W's bill "because he didn't veto it".

It won't go anywhere, but it gives the soccer moms chills to think their baby could grow up to be a soldier and that is enough for Charlie and friends right now.

Never give these guys what they propose just to make sure they take responsibility. They won't and the Dem voters won't give it to them. I heard that when Clinton won the 2nd term:"Let America get what it deserves and they will never elect another Democrat again." It isn't true and the slight majority we pulled out with lots of hard work shows that.

They have our kids for 12-16 years. They have the maninstream media and the have the entertainment industry. They have organized a great proportion of our nation against itself. They must be called out just like this woman did and like every FNC anchor has every single time they try this sort of slime.

Rangle is no different from the masses of disruptors that are trying to bring down FR and he deserves the exact same response: give truth to the lies and call out the social engineers every time they raise their heads above the bunker.

The draft was the one tangible target the Left had during Vietnam and it polarized every weak-kneed coward who was mainly afraid of getting their own butt shot up.

Make this a nation where the cowards don't get the dates and where idiocy is laughed at or we will lose what we have left, which isn't all that much.

Exactly. When Nixon ended the draft the "anti-war" movement disappeared overnight. I'd say that a majority of the people ranting and shouting during 60s didn't give a flip about the Vietnamese, they were just afraid of being drafted.

I think the big story here is being missed. Rangel and Conyers are openly inciting racial trouble in the military on the eve of battle. Their premise is offensive and racist. Will the democrats be forced to make them resign, ala Trent Lott? Or will their party's race baiting problem be acknowledged?

I would let it out of the house and see what went on in the senate. If the democRATS produced an outrageous bill and hopefully they would it could be held up for inspection and embarrassment in the senate where it could find a timely death. No threat to actually become law but just an exercise in letting a public record be created that incumbents would have to defend. After the last election cycle Pelosi and Landrieu bent over backwards to associate themselves with Bush. Now all the presidential candidates are saying how wrong he is. Should have the same conflict for them next cycle and a good way or at least one public record to be defended would be a stupid draft bill.
