This was part of Rangel's reasoning.

Rangel, a decorated Korean War veteran who opposes a war with Iraq, noted that few members of Congress have sons or daughters in the military. If supporters of the war knew their children would be at risk, there would be a "greater willingness to work with the international community in dealing with Iraq," Rangel said.

It seems to fly in the face of the fact that probably half of the Senate and House have served in the military. I guess having once put yourself at risk doesn't count.
