Looks like we will all volunteer

The U.S. House of Representatives has approved a plan to set up a new "volunteer corps" and consider whether "a workable, fair, and reasonable mandatory service requirement for all able young people" should be developed.

The legislation also refers to "uniforms" that would be worn by the "volunteers" and the "need" for a "public service academy, a 4-year institution" to "focus on training" future "public sector leaders." The training, apparently, would occur at "campuses."

I recall Joe biden saying taxation was voluntary. Later i found out the cabinet knew that and the rest of us still pay.

are you all excited? Of course there will be standards (uniforms)

Maybe we can help ACORN. They are so busy and then they are in charge of the Census also.

Some other leader had the youth organized into a group with uniforms and training and called it Hitler Jugend.

Just curious,

At what point would you set a final straw before you would immigrate to another country?


What country would that be?

For some reason i do not see them starting off with muscle and violence. I suspect some Loud praying and other actions would help get you sent home.
The ACLU, the Rush's, the Howard Sterns etc wild folks will not go for this.
This junk would last as long as the VA insurance scandel did this week. it coult make the top 10 list of items atributing to the fall of the Obama Panther party.

New Zealand, no snakes
Italy, just because it is beautiful
Brazil, I really like Bro and Sis A
Argentina, they have beautiful country there from all the pictures I have seen
and maybe Greece, it just always seemed like a cool place to go

just waiting for my wife to say she is willing

by the way anyone have any suggestions???
