A Summary of the NDAA from McCain’s office defends the provision to include women in Selective Service as follows: “Because the Department of Defense has lifted the ban on women serving in ground combat units, the committee believes there is no further justification in limiting the duty to register under the Military Selective Service Act to men.” Thus, McCain believes that because a few liberal social groups and Obama’s politically appointed generals want to include women in combat on a voluntary basis, the Senate should therefore require all women to potentially register for the draft.” ************************************************************ I agree with almost nothing the RINO says but i do agree with this.

Agree completely! Why in the world should it be legal that men be drafted and not women? What is the possible justification?

Why in the world should it be legal that men be drafted and not women? What is the possible justification? “

Because civilized societies have always recognized that women are not sent into war. They nurture and support the family. The feminists went to war against that traditional principle, (drafting women was a feminist agenda from the beginning) and a lot of “conservatives” - such as you - have become feminists.

The historical legal justification was that women could not serve in combat units. That was affirmed by the supreme court, IIRC.

Thomas Jefferson's cousin, John Randolph of Roanoke, put it best a long, long time ago:

"I am a gentleman. I love liberty and I HATE equality!"
