That is so insulting to the men and women who volunteer and put their lives on the line for jerks like Rangel.
We have the best and brightest military - because it is comprised of volunteers. To question their motives is despicable.
I have, however, supported the draft on the basis of fairness and also for the discipline that provided generations of young boys with direction and the tools to become responsible men.
Rangel insists that it’s not patriotism but the lack of jobs that force people into the military.
I have had long discussions with his office with regard to this. It’s all politics and he’s not about to admit the truth.
