It's going to happen......I know this is only a test.....But, notice that the Dems and the White House are saying their against it.......It's just not on the priority."

Rep. Charles Rangel, a New York Democrat who has said minorities and the poor share an unfair burden of the war, plans to introduce a bill next year to reinstate the draft.

House Speaker-elect Nancy Pelosi has said that reinstating the draft would not be high on the Democratic-led Congress' priority list, and the White House said Thursday that no draft proposal is being considered.

Rep. Charles Rangel, a New York Democrat who has said minorities and the poor share an unfair burden of the war,
plans to introduce a bill next year to reinstate the draft.Charlie Rangel has also stated or implied on several occasions that if the sons of members
of Congress were members of the military, then we would not have gone into Iraq.

Charlie refuses to state that the members of Congress have several children in the military.
IN FACT, the members of Congress have children in the military at a RATE of FIVE TIMES the amount of the general population.
Charlie and his buddy, John Kerry, are still living in the 60s, trying to stir up class warfare where it does not even exist.

I am afraid that I am losing faith in Charlie Rangel, who I always liked in the past......
