It was brought forward in the HOUSE, NOT the Senate.

Does anyone want to bet on whether the Dems will follow Mr. DeLay's leadership and vote "No?"

Probably was a Representative, not a Senator. Hundreds of those congress critters voted on the legislation today.

Arlen is such a RINO that it's hard to tell the difference.

This campaign is a baseless and malevolent concoction of the Democrat Party

BTW, I hear that election workers will be checking Selective Service records of all males from 18 to 25 be sure they have registered.

Not registered? You don't vote.

If that is so, why is it not making the headlines now.

Because our mainstream media organs are in bed with the liberals.

Thank you for your support. Now if you could just convert a few million of your neighbors. :)

I watched CSPAN. Rangle was hillarious! He actually screamed that the bill being presented was unfair and dirty on the part of the republicans. He said you don't quell rumors on the Internet on the House Floor. Where else would you air it, except where everyone can get a first hand viewing of how dirty the dems are. They ate their own rumor this time.

"The vote on this bill won't be close, and it won't be party- line. Instead, it will be an opportunity for the American people to see who takes the national security of the United States seriously, who respects our armed forces, who wants to win the war on terror, and who just wants to win the next election.

Ouch. Harsh, but fair. This should be the subject of it's own mass mailing. Anyone who's recieved that idiot chain letter about the draft (The one that's spawned roughly 234,394 vanity posts in the last month) ought to forward this back to whoever sent it. Copies of it should be passed out at schools and colleges.

Bush needs to let all the people that live in Pa that one of their Sen wanted to pass the draft bill, and that It took Republicans to expose it and through it out.

I have seen the bogus fliers and emails and countered the email list with an explanation of the party involved and links to the bills.

If the draft is really a big concern of young voters, I wonder how they would respond to John Kerry's proposed unpaid MANDATORY PUBLIC SERVICE for high school graduation.

His website has altered the text. He should be made to answer for his proposal and not be allowed to respond "see my website" in the next debate. That's about as solid a debate answer as, "You should read the book... if you want to know why mine is the right choice."

Hate and fear are the only two motivators that the Democrats have to get people to vote for them this time around.

I watched it, Senator from Pennsylvania, a Dem, said he would vote in favor of the draft

The Senate didn't vote, the House did.

Pennsylvania has no Dim. Senator.
