Neither I or any kid of mine will SERVE this SOB..

"When you choose to serve -- whether it's your nation, your community or simply your neighborhood -- you are connected to that fundamental American ideal that we want life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness not just for ourselves, but for all Americans. That's why it's called the American dream."
The Obama Administration will call on Americans to serve in order to meet the nation’s challenges. President-Elect Obama will expand national service programs like AmeriCorps and Peace Corps and will create a new Classroom Corps to help teachers in underserved schools, as well as a new Health Corps, Clean Energy Corps, and Veterans Corps. Obama will call on citizens of all ages to serve America, by developing a plan to require 50 hours of community service in middle school and high school and 100 hours of community service in college every year. Obama will encourage retiring Americans to serve by improving programs available for individuals over age 55, while at the same time promoting youth programs such as Youth Build and Head Start.

Why are you opposed to a plan to help American schools? If you had such help when you were in school, you might have turned out better than you are now.

This from the party that says it is not good to teach kids about American exceptionalism, or to stand for the pledge of allegiance?

Please. Beginning the training in "from each according to their ability, to each according to their needs" as young as possible is one of the tenets of Marxism. If you don't want to be called it, stop doing things that prove it.

How many ways can they deny their own philosophy? They know, they just deny.

He seems to be trying to model himself after Kennedy in this one way. Makes you wonder who he will slip into the WH like Kennedy did Marilyn Monroe. Maybe Beyonce?

My guess...this will be the requirement to get that tax cut. The more you volunteer the bigger the cut.

Problem: The more you volunteer the less you can work, the less you work the less income you receive, the less income the lower the standard of living and less income= less income tax...soooooo....another failed socialist program bites the dust.

Go get em Bambam!

Federal government shouldn't even be involved in education.

The last thing we need is a national Hitl-....Hussein Youth Corps.


:pee: Obama's "re-education" program.

Well we know how all you progressive liberals serve. Your idea of "service" is standing in line at the local gov't agency for your FREE check and food stamps. Thats about all the service we can count on from the liberal masses. Or do you deny that they are the ones that voted heavy for Obama?

I've said it before and I'll say it again. Government always makes things worse. If I want to serve, it will be in my own way, not marching lock-step with some government program that's wasting half of the money they stole from me to pay 'administrative expenses.'
