I’m sure they’ll all have to sign up for the draft,too./sarc

I wanted to put that to Clinton in the '96 San Diego debate but didn't get my chance.

I agree with Responsibility2nd. The last thing you want to see happen is for your daughter to be a front line casuality due to the RAT bastard commie muslim pig-in-chief 0dumb0, and to take a bullet because of that narcissistic, vain commie pig.

My nephew (Army major, West Point grad) is being deployed for the 2nd time to Afghanistan, after 2 tours in Iraq as well. My advice to him is to AVOID combat encounters as much as he can, and to steer around them if it appears inevitable. I would hate most of all to see him take a bullet for that RAT bastard 0bama, or to be prosecuted on some trumped up charge, due to a split second decision. We now have a good number of soldiers spending 10 yrs to life in prison because of a split second decision in firing or being fired upon, and then being hauled up on murder charges.

The U.S. military is now a giant, pandering, capitulating, politically correct social experiment for 0dumb0, his muzzlim collaborators, the LGBT and socialist radicals. I tell anyone these days, DON'T GO IN. You may be another casuality on 0dumb0's girdle.

Can't you hear Satan laughing?

He hates, absolutely HATES women, as he hates the Jews. The Messiah was born of a woman. Satan is constantly trying to destroy those made in the image of God. If he'll do it through hypersexualization and objectification then he'll do it through taking away all that makes them uniquely feminine. And Obama is willing to mess with creation and it's order for him.

Goes back to Genesis.

Genesis 3:15

"And I will put enmity between thee and the woman, and between thy seed and her seed; it shall bruise thy head, and thou shalt bruise his heel."

Communists want to demasculinize real men. This is another way of saying, “Men need not apply”. But it is also communicating that everything in a man's God-given instinct to protect females is to be desensitized and destroyed.

Pure evil at its core.

...as of now she isn’t; talk to us after a year in the female billets. Better yet, talk to a military chaplain familiar with these things.

Funny, we are still deploying AD to Iraq (MSM crickets, plus the kicker, we are involved in a messy Sunni and Shiite triangle by attempting to work both sides in different areas, lol), what makes you think Afghan will be any different? Oh, wait, you must believe in this fairy tale called “end of combat operations” well unfortunately there are plenty of other operations that will be alive and well. Bagram (Several other FOBs) for instance is/are being beefed up well into the billions for some long term plan that will continue to drain our resources/taxpayers. AD will be deployed by the thousands for awhile...

Obama the evil SOB. He has found a way to remove the only legal obstacle to requiring women to be drafted.

The last federal court ruling on why women are not subject to the draft is because women were prohibited by federal law from the combat positions that were mostly being drafted for.

I will not turn my daughter over to the sodomites running our government and military. -Under no circumstances-. And daughter being sent into infantry combat is utterly depraved. FUBO marxist plant usurper.

I beg your pardon but plenty of women in uniform have indeed asked for this precisely
