I'm sure it's just an oversight, but the estrogen-soaked minds at SALON have been conspicuously silent about John McCain's statement regarding reactivating the draft. I am stunned at the number of women who have cried SEXISM on the most trivial issues. Yet, it has never occured to them that the selective service laws are, in fact, the ONLY laws that apply solely to one gender. But, even the most ardent "feminist" must surely have some concern about her sons, nephews, husbands and brothers being slaughtered, maimed or permanently damaged psychologically. They must be concerned even though the possibility of being forced to particpate in a war based on lies does not directly affect them. THEY MUST!
