Want your daughter to be GI Jane?



Hey females! Are you ready to fight on the front lines and register for a draft?

That’s what Hussein Obama is pushing. This should concern any parent or female under the age of 30.

In two separate interviews last week, Joe Biden said if Barack Obama becomes Preident we will be attacked, and even though we may not like the actions taken by an Obama administration, Biden urged Americans to stand by them.

"Mark my words. It will not be six months before the world tests Barack Obama like they did John Kennedy. ... Remember I said it standing here if you don't remember anything else I said … we're gonna have an international crisis, a generated crisis, to test the mettle of this guy," Biden warned.

A "generated crisis"? By whom? Moscow? Beijing? Tehran? Terrorists cells in our own country aided by our enemies?
This is an astonishing statement from a chairman of the Foreign Relations Committee who has access to the same intelligence as George Bush.


The Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reports:

Even as the U.S. confronts two long wars, neither Sen. John McCain nor Sen. Barack Obama believes the country should take the politically perilous step of reviving the military draft.

We are in a battle, like none other in History, because our enemies are not defined by a country or state, but rather the ideology of Islam, and their declared Holy War against America, the west, and Israel.

The two presidential candidates disagree on a key foundation of any future draft: Mr. Obama supports a requirement for both men and women to register with the Selective Service, while Mr. McCain doesn’t think women should have to register.

In an unprecedented move, Mr. Obama not only wants to include females in a draft, but wants to change combat rules and regulations to put females on the front lines of battle.

According to his campaign, Mr. McCain supports the current Department of Defense restrictions on women in combat units, including armor, field artillery and special forces.

In the CNN Democratic debate, Obama said women should be expected to register with the Selective Service, comparing the role of women to black soldiers and airmen who served during World War II, when the armed forces were still segregated.

"There was a time when African-Americans weren't allowed to serve in combat," Mr. Obama said. "And yet, when they did, not only did they perform brilliantly, but what also happened is they helped to change America, and they helped to underscore that we're equal."..

Obama said, on requiring females to register for service -- “I think it will help to send a message to my two daughters that they've got obligations to this great country as well as boys do."

Elaine Donnelly, a former member of President Bill Clinton's Commission on the Assignment of Women in the Armed Forces, dismissed Mr. Obama's comparison of the roles of women and black soldiers, arguing that males and females, in general, aren't equal on the battlefield.
