The Draft???

Rant alert!!!

Well, there is a terrifying bill going through congress… Set to activate after elections… It’s a re-institution of the draft. Not draft registration… THE DRAFT… See the article:

Click on the link in the title to see the article.

"to provide for the common defense by requiring that all young persons [age 18--26] in the United States, including women, perform a period of military service or a period of civilian service in furtherance of the national defense and homeland security, and for other purposes."

This bill is set to activate after the elections, so it doesn’t affect the current establishment’s election bid.

If you never have written your congressman… write now…

I am not effected by this, but we do not need to return to this method of military service when we are doing what we are doing in Iraq. It also provides power to the president to get more troops to invade more countries. Stop this now.
