There was a law proposed in 1916 that would have people vote to approve specific military actions. The people that voted yes would have their names volunteered to serve in the military if needed.
This whole Benghazi situation reminds me of the somolia in the early 90's, when our soldiers were left to die because the politicians were to chickenshit to commit the forces nessesary to save our military personnal in a hopeless ambush.
If your going to deploy military/diplomatic personnal abroad, then you should have the balls nessesary to back them up if need be.
Oh well, ima be out of the army in about 6 months so I guess I won't have to worry about that kinda shit on my end soon.
