[QUOTE="Billybob, post: 2076850, member: 1294"] If any "daddy's little princess" could be drafted would it change the country's attitude about going to war? [Critics of women in combat argue that culturally, the prospect of women being drafted might make the country reluctant to go to war. To that, Professor Mansoor says, “It should be: That’s exactly the debate the country needs to have.” But while the notion of women being drafted “may add some measure of hesitancy to the decision, I don’t see it as swinging the decision,” he says. Even so, “Congress and the president should agonize over going to war. Questions of war should be difficult,” Mansoor adds. “They should not be as easy as they’ve been in the past 10 years.”] [url]http://news.yahoo.com/women-combat-register-draft-225900518.html;_ylt=AkSg71MXfWSK6ruePKzN4pCs0NUE;_ylu=X3oDMTNrYm9iMmw5BG1pdANNZWdhdHJvbiBGUARwa2cDN2EwZDIyNzMtY2U2Mi0zMzIxLWI4NWMtNDkwNmNjYzlkMDU3BHBvcwMxBHNlYwNtZWdhdHJvbgR2ZXIDODk5NjgxYjItNjViZS0xMWUyLWJiZGUtMjEzMTZhNmUwY2U0;_ylg=X3oDMTFpNzk0NjhtBGludGwDdXMEbGFuZwNlbi11cwRwc3RhaWQDBHBzdGNhdANob21lBHB0A3NlY3Rpb25z;_ylv=3#[/url] [/QUOTE]
