The military doesn't want the draft. The regular Army, Navy, Marines, and Air Force grunts don't want the draft. The only people who want the draft are those who are anti-war and want a wedge to get college students in the streets like the 60's. Unless there is a major and by major I mean city destroying attack any congress person who votes for the draft will end up unemployed. Red State America is just fine with a volunteer military. If you volunteer then it is your choice, not another coercive government intrusion that takes away life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. :) Any more and I will be at the Forum.
