Want to see something really scary?

We'd heard rumors, but seeing the actual bill to reinstate the draft was a bit of a shock. An excerpt: "To provide for the common defense by requiring that all young persons in the United States, including women, perform a period of military service or a period of civilian service in furtherance of the national defense and homeland security, and for other purposes." See the full text of the bill (two pages) by doing a search on "H.R. 163" at http://thomas.loc.gov.
