Wasn't this one of the Dems scare tactics 5 years ago that the republicans wanted to bring back the draft ( yes they where looking for the young vote and got it ) Now we have Rep. Charlie Rangel (D-N.Y.) saying we should bring back the Draft before Congress acts, so one would think he is thinking this could be a long drawn out war but no he wants the draft back before Congress even votes.


Rep. Charlie Rangel (D-N.Y.) on Sunday renewed his call to reinstate the draft, arguing a vote should be held on mandatory military service before any decision is taken to launch strikes against Syria.








“I truly believe we should have a National Draft Act before the Congress acts,” Rangel told MSNBC.Rangel, a decorated veteran of the Korean War, has for several years introduced legislation to bring back the draft and earlier this, for the first time, advocated that women should be included.

Rangel IS...that broken record now.
5444

Every opportunity Rangel gets to change the subject. He tries to introduce the DRAFT again.

He is getting senile. Thinking Nobody notices what he tries to do, and probably thinks...Nobody remembers how many times his DRAFT bill has failed to go anywhere.

Poor Charlie. Still stinging from his TAX FRAUD expose' he wishes we would all FORGET.

If Rangel wants to make a difference in this situation, he should forget about reinstating the draft and instead tell President Obama to stuff it when it comes time to vote on Syria.

All of these elected representatives should pay attention to the people they purportedly REPRESENT and vote no.


Fucking morons.

Does anyone actually listen to what Rangel says? He is even more of an immense joke than most politicians.
