A Military Conscription for Iraq

[LadyT]

So their kids get an out then? They "cheerled" us into "war" by voting for an unconstitutional "authorization" but they get an out because their daddy is a D? I also note that women are excused for no apparent reason.

I noticed that too. But it keeps me at the bottom of the list, so I was more than willing to let it slide As for the D keeping them safe, if a D gave authorization, they're higher on the list either way.

I would not want the draft biased in any way, but no college exemptions only hardship ones.

Clearly I would.

Clearly I would.

I see that.
I am also for drafting females as well equality is equality.

In theory that works.

I think any draftee should have the right to apply for a non combat position. Much of the military is support positions.

After all we could replace a lot of the military contractors with draftees not able to handle combat for one reason or another.
