More on the Rangel/Conyers proposal to reinstate the military draft (previously discussed here). It appears that less than 10 months ago, Representitive John Conyers (D), was co-sponsor of a bill spoke out against the possibility of a draft. The title of the bill read: Expressing the sense of Congress that reinstating the military draft or implementing any other form of compulsory military service in the United States would be detrimental to the long-term military interests of the United States, violative of individual liberties protected by the Constitution, and inconsistent with the values underlying a free society as expressed in the Declaration of Independence."

See that you lefties? Your individual liberties and Constitutional protections are only supported by Mr. Conyers when they are politically helpful to him. I hope the people of Michigan remember this when he is up for re-election in 2004.
