The draft issue is currently nothing but a political football being tossed around by democrats hoping to scare people into not voting for Bush.

Rangel has provoked controversy in the past by insisting that a draft is the only way to fill the nation's military needs without exploiting young men and women from lower-income families.

This is the typical lie being presented. They are still going by the fictitious claim that more casualties are from the poor minorities, when in fact the combat troops are disproportionately white and middle class. If you go by population % the armed forces are biased in sending white males into combat instead of minorities.
