I find myself wondering if somehow or another the Libs have managed to remove the Article pertaining to treason in the US Constitution. I am perplexed to find it still there: Article III, Section 3. Interesting... I wonder why it's still there if we are determined never to use it. I'm not the sharpest knife in the drawer, but even *I* can think of a couple of good candidates for charges under Article III, Section 3. Can't you?
US Representative, Charlie Rangel (D-NY) is at it again. Rangel's prescription for fixing the ills we're feeling in Iraq is a draft . I have very mixed feelings about this. Conscription is conscription no matter what you choose to label it. Is that appropriate in a free country? On the flip side of this coin, I've often thought that compulsory national service would be a great idea for American kids right out of high school. It might have been a better start for me than learning to down beer at a Liberal Arts university! Two years in the service might give kids time to think about their future, learn higher levels of responsibility, and begin to take life more seriously. There are many countries who require some level of mandatory military service: Belarus, Chile, China, Croatia, Serbia, Russia, Iran, Lebanon, our neighbor Mexico, and our old buddy Germany, to name a few. Gee, now that I look at that partial list... aren't many of those countries Socialist or at battl...
