Don’t Let Hillary Draft Your Daughter
Townhall ^ | December 28, 2015 | Katie Kieffer

Posted on 12/27/2015 9:12:34 PM PST by 2ndDivisionVet

For over 40 years, Hillary Clinton has been pushing to put women in combat and now she’s close to succeeding—whether women like it or not.

Your daughter or granddaughter could soon be compelled to register with the Selective Service at the age of 18 alongside all American males. Today, I’ll share what you need to know to confront Hillary and Obama’s unconstitutional and unscientific approach to fighting the phony War on Women and the real War on ISIS.

In 1975, at the age of 27, Hillary was the newly-married wife of Bill Clinton and a law school teacher when she claims to have been rejected by a Marine Corps recruiter because of her age and because “you're a woman.”

The New York Times reported in 1994 that Hillary: “said that ‘it was not an isolated situation’ for women to be turned away by military recruiters. And she lauded efforts to bring women into more aspects of military service.” Translation: Hillary thinks a woman’s place is on the front lines.

Despite the fact that she was zealously anti-war as a college student, Hillary continues to bemoan the fact that the Marines shunned her. You begin to suspect that her story is a political ploy to make female voters think she is pro-woman....

If women are going to be in the combat MOS fields at all, then they belong in the draft.

Everyone who supported that has helped bring about the logical extension of that. Thus, here we are.

This didn’t just suddenly happen.

I went in at seventeen and pulled three tours. I had nearly twelve years in when I got out. Never did have to register.

No one has been drafted since 1973.

Agree 100%. I’d add in the 25-30 something kids of congresscritters and fed judges too.

“No one has been drafted since 1973”

I still remember from 1973 my then girlfriend jibing me that I had to register, but she didn’t.

I’ve been for drafting women ever since.

Damn, Hillary! You’re supposed to make a BAG out of the carpet, not a COAT.

I agree that we should not draft, but I do NOT agree that women should be included if we do.

If Hillary wanted to join the Marines it was for the hookup potential and/or the political advantage being an officer would give her.

I think your girlfriend’s too old by now. Maybe her grand-daughters. :)

I had to register in 1980 when Carter reinstated registration after the Soviets invaded Afghanistan. Once or twice since I had to provide my registration info to maintain my security clearance.

The Republicans must support it as well. Have you heard any of them criticizing the idea?

Our lazy puppet theatre players aren't even bothering to pretend opposition anymore!

Draft her and put her in BDU's and on the front lines! Not to mention the hippie on the right.

Let them see what Freedom is really about. If not, then send them to a VA hospital to look at all the many who have lost limbs, eyes, faces, mental capacities, et al. I've hated socialist hippies since the 1960's...I still hate them today.

Yes, I said HATE! Just in case you didn't get it Lynch, I said HATE. Come get me. Do your worst, but don't bother with the IRS - I always pay my taxes and you would just make yourself a bigger target once I let the media know.

Just read your site and all the suspicions you suggest for civilians to report, you left one out:

Your fraudulent activities as the Attorney General of the USA. When you indict or assign a "special prosecutor" for Hillary Clinton for dereliction of duty regarding Benghazi and other crimes, I may re-consider my opinion of you. Of course you won't...you're one the shameless Obama team. Plus, you have extra melanin in your skin.

yeah, if there is enough women who support it, i say let it happen but in units segregated by gender so that an all woman unit is totally on its own when TSHTF in a land firefight or whatever. Make them carry their own weight or perish in battle, but don’t sacrifice any men to help with the load under any circumstances. Also, publish this upfront in recruiting offices so the girls get to learn exactly how much shit they can expect to take once they sign up. Ideally the women’s units will sink or swim. those that swim will swim (and more power to any that do) and those that sink will sink (and too bad, war is hell). and no special consideration of prisoners for exchange on the basis of gender which means girls will likely be doing special duty as “comfort women” if caught, and that is perfectly ok since war is hell. if it comes to the draft, hold the policy line on all fronts, since war is hell.

all woman submarines sinks due to general incompetence? war is hell.

woman fighter jets can’t land on carrier and crash because their feet are too short? war is hell.

and absolutely no child support, and absolutely no pregnancy leave, and no honorable discharge for pregnancy reasons. no gender specific considerations at all. war is hell.

i would give it about 3 months during an active war before the political pendulum (no pun intended) swings the other way, as it should. after that, things should be back to something resembling normal, but not until then.

... add to the preceding that no one who does not register for draft will be elegible to vote, and that this clause is separable from everything else. so if the women’s draft is rescinded, this clause shall remain. a nifty way to remove most women from the vote, analogous to the Heinlein novel.
