Michelle's Boot Camps For Radicals
Investor's Bussiness Daily ^ | September 5, 2008 | IBD Editorial

Posted on 09/05/2008 10:57:58 AM PDT by Bigun

Barack Obama was a founding member of the board of Public Allies in 1992, resigning before his wife became executive director of the Chicago chapter of Public Allies in 1993. Obama plans to use the nonprofit group, which he features on his campaign Web site, as the model for a national service corps. He calls his Orwellian program, "Universal Voluntary Public Service."...

Public Allies brags that more than 80% of graduates have continued working in nonprofit or government jobs.

There it is. Mind conditioning to become a government-dependent-robot-for-life.

Full blown unabashed communism.

"Universal Voluntary Public Service" is a cumbersome name. Sturmabteilung is much more catchy.

“Universal Voluntary Public Service.”...

That is an Orwellian title. If it’s “Universal”, it can’t be “Voluntary”.

Honestly, why can’t I do what I want to do for people less fortunate than myself, instead of being coerced by the Obama Brownshirts (no racism intended by the use of “Brown”.)

From the article: “Not all the recruits appreciate the PC indoctrination.”

But that’s the whole point! They want an indoctrinaed bunch of leftist troublemakers. My tax money is not going to go for this. Sorry, whacky leftists.

Think of the good these young people could do for their community if they actually went out and got jobs. At the very least they’d be paying some taxes, instead of being public sponges.

The following is on Public Allies website, under 'FAQ about Senator Barak and Michelle Obama', in last paragraph:

"Senator McCain has also been a great champion of national service and has introduced legislation to expand AmeriCorps by more than 200%."

According to the IRS, the Income Tax is “voluntary”.

Little clip re these kind of things..........

if he is elected president — a plan his wife, Michelle, says was influenced greatly by her work with Public Allies, a charity that works across the country to train young people for nonprofit or public-service jobs.

“He saw me work in that environment,” she said in an interview. “Of all the jobs I’ve had, if I were to do anything again at the drop of a heartbeat it would be to work on this kind of program. I was really passionate and engaged; this was like a family, there was drama, everyone knew everyone.”

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>Ms. Obama, the founding executive director of Public Allies’ Chicago program from 1993 to 1996,-— said her husband also learned about the “ups and downs” of getting money from AmeriCorps,-——— the national-service program that helps finance Public Allies.<<<<<<<<<<<<

Throughout his political career, she added, Mr. Obama has been impressed by graduates of Public Allies and other AmeriCorps programs. “They’re the ones who are most likely to run for office, to work on a campaign, to lead an organization or run a foundation,” she said. “What he knows is that you can harness this energy in a phenomenal way.”

Like I said on the other thread.

Now we know why Michelle Obama is preaching "Don’t go into corporate America. You know, become teachers. Work for the community. Be social workers. Be a nurse. Those are the careers that we need, and we’re encouraging our young people to do that. But if you make that choice, as we did, to move out of the money-making industry into the helping industry, then your salaries respond."

They are doing everything they can to recruit young people to their cause.

This is exactly what I thought about when I read about Obama's speech in Colorado Springs on July 2nd, where he made this statement...

"We cannot continue to rely on our military in order to achieve the national security objectives we’ve set. We’ve got to have a civilian national security force that’s just as powerful, just as strong, just as well-funded."

It seems that the world had an ambitious man in the 1930s in Germany who was a "community organizer". Like Obama, he wrote an autobiography of his life and "struggles". He titled his story "Mein Kampf". He loved to give speeches to large, adoring crowds in Berlin like Obama gave there and at Invesco Field in Denver. When he came to power, his followers, the Brown Shirts, populated the Gestapo, his counterpart to Obama's proposed Civilian Security Force. We all know how the German people feared the Gestapo, which was able to arrest anyone for any reason they chose, or even no reason at all, and the people arrested often were sent to concentration camps or disappeared altogether. I think Obama's proposal for his Civilian Security Force--his version of the Gestapo or SS--should disqualify him from receiving the votes of all freedom-loving Americans.

"We’ve got to have a civilian national security force that’s just as powerful, just as strong, just as well-funded."

I remembered hearing that. Didn't he repeat it in his Convention speech?

I finally found the song Glenn Beck was talking about as one of Obama's Convention songs. U2 "City of Blinding lights" Here are the lyrics.

The more you see the less you know The less you find out as you go I knew much more then than I do now

Neon heart day-glow eyes A city lit by fireflies They're advertising in the skies For people like us

And I miss you when you're not around I'm getting ready to leave the ground

Oh you look so beautiful tonight In the city of blinding lights

Don't look before you laugh Look ugly in a photograph Flash bulbs purple irises The camera can't see

I've seen you walk unafraid I've seen you in the clothes you made Can you see the beauty inside of me? What happened to the beauty I had inside of me?

(cut) And I miss you when you're not around I'm getting ready to leave the ground

Oh you look so beautiful tonight In the city of blinding lights

Time...time...time...time...time Won't leave me as I am But time won't take the boy out of this man

Oh you look so beautiful tonight Oh you look so beautiful tonight Oh you look so beautiful tonight In the city of blinding lights

The more you know the less you feel Some pray for others steal Blessings are not just for the ones who kneel... luckily

That and a hundred other things I can think of right off the top of my head surely does disqualify him from receiving the vote of anyone in this household!

We cannot afford to allow him anywhere near the Presidency!

I wonder what the commie baztard has in mind when we don't volunteer?

“Re-education?”

Psychoanalysis?

Drug therapy?

Anti repression hypnosis?

I am sure there will be some process in place “for our own good and safety.”
