I'll let you first explain why sending others into war just to get people to go against the war is any better than what Bush is doing.
That's the hypocritical B.S. that you cannot defend. The fact that I have to point it out to you shows just how far out of whack your "logic" is.


Read my posts and find where i took a position with rangel's proposal...I think you'll find that I TOOK NONE

I do object to your disgusting projection, by which you intimated that draftees lost the vietnam war and, if not bad enough, that this was a liberal policy at it's worst. I guess that exhonerates bush, since he avoided the draft.

If you were not as insulated as you seem to be, you would recognize that wars of attrition, like vietnam and iraq, can't be sustained and certainly not won without a draft, simply on the numbers alone. You can't revolve-deploy a limited volunteer force like ours in extended engagements like those two conflicts and not expect to have anything but a broken military...which we are well on our way to having contrary to your pollyanna beliefs.
