I'd just like to post this for all you people out there who keep trying to argue with me that if Bush is re-elected....the draft will be reinstated. I thought it was ridiculous that anyone was even saying this..much less believing it. So here you go, read and learn...and stop shouting bogus crap at me!!! lol
President Commends the House for Rejecting the "Reinstate the Draft" Bill
Statement by the President
I applaud the House of Representatives for soundly rejecting the "Reinstate the Draft" bill, sponsored by Congressman Rangel in the House and Senator Hollings in the Senate. If this bill were presented to me, I would veto it. America's all-volunteer military is the best in the world, and reinstating the draft would be bad policy. We have increased pay and benefits to ensure that our troops have the resources they need to fight and win the war on terror. I want every American to understand that, as long as I am President, there will be no draft.
