re: Sounds no different than Wes Clark's plan for a "Civilian Reserve"
Clark's Civilian reserve was an even worse idea. I'd love to know how the Federal government could organize such an effort while only requiring "6 months of mandatory service".
What a logistical joke of a plan. And this guy was a General Officer.
Real scary thought.
No way there will ever be a draft.
I can't forsee a single circumstance short of an alien invasion from space that would force a draft in the US. In otherwords, its not going to happen. Any Democrat who believes in the draft might as well believe in the tooth fairy.
Oh wait...Maybe if you elect John Kerry and the Volunteer army is allowed to wither on the vine.
