There have been attempts by the Left over these many decades, since the days of Jimmy Carter, to reinstitute the draft. Make no mistake, they NEVER take credit for calling for the draft, nor do they ever admit to writing legislation that pushes the reinstitution of a draft.
In a hilarious example, back in 2003, Charlie Rangel, noted far-Left Democrat in the US House of Representatives for New York (a 15-year politician from Harlem at that time already and famous for not having paid taxes…go figure) had introduced legislation to reinstitute the draft.
By the following morning, after having done all the Fake News Industrial Complex shows, Rangel (through reporters) went from introducing the legislation to a politician who was trying to stop George W. Bush from killing our children!
Yes, it’s true. In the span of only a few days, the DNC and the FNIC had attempted to convince the entire voting public that George Bush had asked for the draft to be reinstituted so that he could send more kids off to war in Iraq and Afghanistan! You cannot make this stuff up. Rangel was even asked if women would be included in this draft, but he softly deflected and waddled on his way back to the Swamp.
Now, the Pentagon has issued a report that suggests we stick with the mandatory Selective Service registration requirements for young men who are 18-25 years old, but adds that they believe young women should be added to that registration kick as well!
EO All The Way, not when it’s convenient
I agree.
Why women when men are not required to ssignup??????????
Good idea, I just don’t know if I would be ready to tryst my life to one of these too lazy to work to support themselves and only interested in what the government can give them…..It cost money to train even freeloaders…
Yep
William Michael Gose We actualily had a draft once. Some how we managed to round up folks without selective service. These crockpots you speak of are not anymore ready to go, as they have not been trained. Either way we still do not have a draft, as a draft would actually require the crockpot to work NOW and not (maybe) later. I’m sure you see the difference. I did my 21 years and retired 17 years ago, so call it whatever makes you feel warm inside.
We still have selective service steve! All he’s doing is explaining to people who say we don’t draft!
Samuel, I so agree with you! Yes! Women need to sign up for selective service as well! Or do like Israel, 2 yrs automatic right out of high school. BOTH SEXES!!
You don’t need men in the military unless they want to be there. See how that works? Want equality, then be equal!
Idiot, it’s selective service, a precursor for the draft! All 18 yr old males must sign. It’s not an option!
