Rumsfeld just announced that he agrees that we need a great increase in troops in Iraq and I would think he would't want to decrease our protection at home any more than he already has. Would you go even if you knew no congressmen son's are not going to be drafted...

I think the republicans have been in charge for the past 6 years. And spending billions that are being stolen. WOW Dem's and Clinton's fault. Sort of hard to believe.

I really think the draft is too much of a touchy subject for them to reopen it. They'd have to tackle a big unspoken draft question.... should women, who are already in the military voluntarily, and so often ask for equality, be subject to the draft?
Bad debates there. Easier to just not reinstate it.

As a ex Salior I'm getting a bit tired of this "is there going to be a draft ? " posts every F-ing day. 90 % of which are posted by folks who seem want to live off the country, but not pull their weight. Are you special or something? God, you people make me sick.....
As to your question? There is not going to be any draft. The military And most of my friends & family still in, share the same view. That last thing we need is a bunch of whinnig, candyass, screw ups who don't want to be there. We have recruited over 80, 000 recruits this year alone. We don't need or want any "special" people. I'm sorry to sound harsh, but we a growing a generation of pansy, soccer playing, suburban couch potatoes. Who care more about getting high, than their country. Have some guts.....

Yes it's true that a congressman's son will not be drafted and for your information neither will you. There hasn't been a draft in America for at least 20 years.

STRAIGHT REPUBLICAN... LOL... SO THAT IF THEY GET DRAFTED THEY WILL HAVE SOME WEAPONS AND PLANES ETC. TO FIGHT WITH... Clinton cut our military to the bare bones... so bad that generals got out of the armed forces and complained about not wanting to see their men die, because they had nothing to fight with when he was in office... dems don't want to fight aggression, terrorism... or anything that is wrong; therefore, they cut and slash our national defense... dangerous times when they have control.... no wonder Bin Laden called our country weak when willie was in there.

Yea, you'd better think about it. The only people asking for a draft are Democrats. Google it if you don't believe me.

This government is completely out of touch with reality. Run. That's my advice if you are draft age.
