The Draft is just what the Dems need to re-stoke the fires of the Vietnam Anti-War movement. All the crys to bring back the draft from the Dems and Rangel in particular, are the exact same crys, almost word for word, that they used to protest the draft and call for its end as well as an end to the Vietnam War.
Bears repeating. Red Herring Alert. We need more authorized endstrength to build formations with volunteers in order to ease the strain of cyclic deployments. We need additional funding to sustain current OPTEMPO. This is a long war but- WE DON'T NEED A DRAFT for the reasons stated above. It becomes the defeatists version of a trojan horse.
