This will go right over the head of the liberals -- as usual.

Our all Volunteer force is so far superior to a Conscript force that it is absurd to even be discussing this.

As any trainer can tell you motivation is one of the key factors of how successful a person will be in any given task. A Volunteer has all ready mentally made a commitment that the coerced will NEVER have.

The ONLY people who think this is a good idea are senile old fools like Rangle.

"disproportionate number of the poor and members of minority groups make up the enlisted ranks of the military."


Yep, really looks like minorities are the bulk of those fighting in Iraq.

An a lot of folks here that consider themselves conservatives. The draft seems especially popular with older vets.

This will go right over the head of the liberals -- as usual.

“...Thanks to the CBO, Congress is more likely to agree that these men and women should not be replaced by conscripts.”

Are we to believe the current Democrat lead Congress would actually read the report much less respect the conclusions?

Democrats don’t want to know the truth, it muddles up their agenda.

Charlie Rangle the Korean war vet is obviously senile.

He doesn’t recognize how much better soldiers are performing in Bush’s Army than in Truman’s miserable Army full of draftees.

And doggies in Bush’s Army are getting more respect from the Marines.

I should know, I was one of Truman’s poorly trained doggies.
