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.
