Draft~!!!!

I don't think it'll pass - and if a form of it does, it'll be really weak. I've read both S89 and HR163 and I SERIOUSLY doubt they'll get far. I think it's just something the Democrats can put in and blame on Bush.

I'll see you suckers in Mexico.

If there is ever a draft in the US there will be a revolution...

...and numerous other sources.

Would these people be Republicans? Looks like a draft proposal to me? I could be wrong though...

No, you're right, that looks like a draft proposal. As a matter of fact, the summary is worded the exact same as HR 163, though I'm not sure of the coorelation. I stand corrected, there are stupid Republicans out there. Do note, that there are only 2 co-sponsors of that bill, and that Nick Smith is not planning to run for re-election (he wants his son to succeed him).

Why is this a Republican vs Democrat thing?

I could turn a discussion about Girlscout cookies into a Republican vs. Democrat thing, at least this started out political.
