re: #139 lawhawk

More recent than that. January 15, 2009. Rangel was contemplating reintroducing yet again the legislation to reinstate the draft.

He wants the draft for two reasons.

They will raise a hue and cry about racism.

Secondly they what the protests in the streets. Vietnam War protests where by and in large draft protests. When the draft ended, the protests dropped markedly, before the war was over.

Rangel is dishonest as the day is long, it whats to use it smear the military, to ruin the military.
