Who is Granny?
I'm the incredibly blessed mother of 9, "Granny" to , and wife of "The Papa," the knight-in-shining-armor whose loving support has made it possible for me to stay home and give my life to mothering, homemaking, and 26 years of homeschooling. Life at Granny's House is full of laughter, friendship, books, music, lively debate, writing, and good things to eat. My days are made even more meaningful by coming alongside other moms, giving them the support and encouragement that I lacked as a young mother and helping them to network with each other in ways that strengthen homes and families. A few times a year I board a plane to visit my "away" kids, to attend the birth of a grandchild, or to enjoy some lazy days with my best friend, but I always love coming back to...Granny's House.
While I have no visceral objections to the idea of a draft should we ever really need one, I do have a revulsion to cynical, opportunistic congressmen who are trying to use it as part of class warfare and political posturing.
Fortunately, I believe this will be a bigger wedge in Rangel's own party than it would be in the country as a whole. How in the world would the Pelosi San Francisco Dems reconcile a draft with kicking the JROTC out of public schools??
