From the article:
New York Rep. Charles Rangel, a Democrat, introduced legislation last year calling for exactly that. Although his bill made no headway, the issue continues to receive debate as the war in Iraq drags on.

Why would old scragly voice introduce legislation for a draft when he is decidedly anti-war? If any legislation goes through at this point with no immediate immanent threat there would be heavy backlash from both the right and the left. Mark my words David it won't happen anytime soon
