[greenbriar]

DEMS DON'T TAKE CONROL UNTIL JAN...


THIS IS WHY RANGLE IS DOING IT NOW


GET OFF HIS BACK

1. Don't bother. Too many people don't want to take the time to understand.

[LittleClarkie]

14. I think most people understand well enough. They just disagree.

We're generally a smart buncha cookies.

[EdwardM]

2. He shouldn't do it period.

I don't care what his "brilliant strategy" is.

[greenbriar]

3. I think it is brilliant and YES I have children that it could affect

so don't even go there

[EdwardM]

15. Well I am a child it could effect

So I guess I can go there.

[bluerum]

6. We will probably always have a military. Should it be made up of primarily

those without other opportunities? Or should the affluent who are born into privilege also be required to serve their country?

4. here is Rangels words

"There's no question in my mind that this president and this administration would never have invaded Iraq, especially on the flimsy evidence that was presented to the Congress, if indeed we had a draft, and members of Congress and the administration thought that their kids from their communities would be placed in harm's way," Rangel said.

7. Clearly Rangel is an idiot, then. (n/t)

[Kingofalldems]

5. Draft the college repubs

I'm all for that.

"There's no question in my mind that this president and this administration would never have invaded Iraq, especially on the flimsy evidence that was presented to the Congress, if indeed we had a draft, and members of Congress and the administration thought that their kids from their communities would be placed in harm's way," Rangel said.



yea, that is really embarrassing "his" party

[NEDem]

10. looks like you caught one.

You'd think he would have tried harder.

[WilliamPitt]

11. 3...2...1...

[bluerum]

12. He is not embarassing me. I think he is embarassing the chicken ass

republikans who screamed for war (on anyone - just kill something) but do not want to actually have to do the dirty work.

Charlie Rangel is a working stiffs congressman from a place that most us would never want to visit.

[greenbriar]

13. so totally true!!!!!!!!!!111

and spot on
