![Obama Won’t Leave Quietly; Now He Wants Women to Register for Draft [VIDEO]](https://victorygirlsblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/12/iu-1-1.jpeg)
While Donald Trump was announcing his pick of Gen. James Mattis as Secretary of Defense, the Obama administration was throwing a last minute sop to feminists and liberals.
On Thursday, the White House announced its support for requiring women to register for the draft.
“As old barriers for military service are being removed, the administration supports — as a logical next step — women registering for the Selective Service,” said Ned Price, spokesman for the National Security Council. A Pentagon spokesman, speaking on behalf of Defense Secretary Ash Carter, said, “While Secretary Carter strongly supports our all-volunteer approach and does not advocate returning to a draft, as he has said in the past, he thinks it makes sense for women to register for selective service just as men must.”
In reality, however, Obama and Co. are spitting in the wind. Since we’re entering the last few weeks of Obama’s presidency, this action is mostly symbolic. To actually enact this mandate, the Republican Congress would need to alter current draft laws, and there is little support for such an action, especially since that body had already stripped the current National Defense Authorization Act of a women’s draft provision.
And feminists?
