all able-bodied children & grandchildren of members of congress who vote for war should go to war

[Admiral Rockwell Tory]

besides forcing Congress to pay attention to its constitutional war-declaring and funding, it would hold our humble public servants accountable by making them share the risk currently foisted on a few million, mostly low-income families

Look up "corruption of the blood". The Constitution specifically forbids bills of attainder.

Why would a child or grandchild be held responsible for actions of their parents or grandparents?


Gawd that was stupid

If the parent votes for war, then their kids get to go first. That will make them wise up. We have been in a continuous war since 2001 , if you have not noticed.

Go read your Constitution and get back to us. If stupid hurt, there would be a lot fewer liberals to deal with.

A draft should be mandatory any time we go to war .

We wouldn’t still be in Afghan 18 years later if there was a draft .

It’s a check n balance .

Vietnam lasted roughly 20 years with a draft

Nope. Go read a history book! 20 years?

That's why they called it the 10,000 day war. Now, it's a math problem!

Is 10,000 days equal to 20 years?

20 years?

You can't help but step in your own pile, Plywood. Now sit the fck down and shut the fck up, redundant asshat

Since there was no declaration of the war, exact dates are sketchy. However, it is now widely accepted that the Vietnam War started on November 1, 1955 and lasted until April 30, 1975, which is roughly 20 years, or 19 years, 180 days to be precise.

How long was the Vietnam War? - The Vietnam War

Considering we did not have a significant number of troops there until 1960s, where is your justification for that bullshit, uneducated pile of manure you are spreading?

Experts: Demanding Congress to Authorize Wars Would Lead to Less Wars

 

[whitehall]

(Segregationist) Senator Albert Gore Sr. (D-Tenn.) son, young Albert Gore served in Vietnam in the typewriter corps but he couldn't take the pressure and went to the Chaplain. Here's where it gets funny, Al promised the Chaplain that he saw the "Light" and would enter the seminary if he could only get out of Vietnam. No doubt with Senator Gore's influence young Albert was released from active duty in Vietnam after a couple of months. He lied to the Chaplain the same way he spent a career lying to the American people.

It’s comical that Republicans who knowingly sold a war based on lies now deride “fake news.”
