Enacting the draft is not the way to expose double standards, enact the draft and we will see nothing but lost wars for when people are taken from thier hometowns against their will and told to shoot, they will fire thier weapons only to get back home, not because they care about who's innocent and who's guilty.

Title is misleading. The article clearly indicates that the democratic leadership is against this.

Interesting idea though. if we had mandatory military service there would actually be fewer wars.

the dude is clearly addicted to the limelight. Last time he did this he actually voted against his own bill....grandstander

If you choose to interpret the title that way that is the fault of your own subconcious.

HAHAHAHA riiiiight

Yes, I interpreted the title this way. Actually I think it is very predictable that people would interpret the title this way. After all 'the democrats,' note the plural, more easily describes a group rather than a single person. That makes you responsible for misinterpretations given that any reasonable person would be able to predict how the majority of people would interpret this title, and choose a wording that more accurately describes your thoughts.... like 'Another winning idea from Rangel'

What I said was not technically innacurate, for when it was proposed the last time it was beaten by 402-2.

Now alot of republicans don't believe there is a discrepancy between the poor and the rich, so why would a republican vote for that?

2 is plural I do believe. Yes I just used clinton speak.

hahah

actually its 3 democrats.....Rangel voted no on his own bill, remember?


but anyway, If I were to call 3 democrats, "the democrats," I would at least try to pick 3 that are somewhat representative....not way out there.

You just proved my point, if more than one democrat voted for it then technically speaking democrats would be the proper term to use.
