It is one of those things we hear every few years. Its done as a scare tactic. Rangle (D-NY) was on the talking head shows calling for it because of the disproportion of blacks to whites, latinos to white, poort to rich and a few other buzz word comparisons.
This bill was brought around January of 2003 - it still sits in committee. I can find no mention of when and or if the bill will even be talked about in committee. Aside from it being introduced, its gone noplace. Remember any member can introduce anything they like. So one of the member makes a motion to reinstate slavery, the bill would get moved to committee.
If anyone wonders about the timing, just look at the sites raising the alarm. (use google and you'll see what I mean) They all site that the draft would start right after the 04 election. Most of the web sites specifically mention Bush and this bill over and over again. The bill was brought to the floor by Democrats who want nothing more then to see Bush out of office.
