One blogging group in particular is the PUMAs.
What would happen if a power-hungry President were to play tricks with the draft? Could he use the draft as an excuse to:
1. Use draftees for slave labor [in the name of 'civil service']?
2. Put adults from age 18 to 41 into reeducation camps?
These are the kinds of things that PUMAs and other bloggers fear.
What first fueled this concern was Michelle Obama in a California speech:
"Barack Obama will require you to work. He is going to demand that you shed your cynicism. That you put down your divisions. That you come out of your isolation, that you move out of your comfort zone . . . Barack will never allow you to go back to your lives as usual - uninvolved, uninformed."

This is going to be our new First Lady? She's eager for her husband to force us to work [his way] and to be informed [his way]. It certainly sounds like slave labor and reeducation. What, pray tell, did her husband tell her? What other mechanism would a president Obama have than the draft itself? It sounds far fetched, but since Obama is hiding the details, what are we left to conjecture?
The clincher was Joe Biden's ominous warning:
1. A manufactured crisis within six months
2. Solutions that will cause Obama's poll ratings to plummet.
"Watch, we’re gonna have an international crisis, a generated crisis, to test the mettle of this guy.”
Here's a little more of what Biden said:
“There are gonna be a lot of you who want to go, ‘Whoa, wait a minute, yo, whoa, whoa, I don’t know about that decision’,” Biden continued. “Because if you think the decision is sound when they’re made, which I believe you will when they’re made, they’re not likely to be as popular as they are sound. Because if they’re popular, they’re probably not sound.”
That was the last straw for some PUMAs. They smell a rat. I can't blame them. Guess who said this?
"We are on the verge of a global transformation. All we need is the right major crisis..." -- David Rockefeller.
PUMAs are beginning to to take notice of a Obama comment on military service at Columbia: “If we are going into war, then all of us go, not just some.” They also noticed that Obama wants females included in the draft.
Then there was this: "I will call on a new generation of Americans to join our military.... I will expand AmeriCorps to 250,000 slots, and make that increased service a vehicle to meet national goals like providing health care and education, saving our planet and restoring our standing in the world, so that citizens see their efforts connected to a common purpose."
Here is a list of blogs trying to make sense of it all:

They fear Obama having the power of the draft. Should we?
Another website has put a lot of thought in this concern: http://www.crossroad.to/articles2/08/1-service.htm
And guess what name pops up? Bill Ayers. Ayers shifted from terrorism to radical indoctrination of youth through education. [That's professor material in many of today's universities.]
Bill Ayers has been practicing how to radicalize students for a long time now. It's clearly a passion of his.
Maybe these dots don't connect, but more people all the time are beginning to think they do.
Yes, it would be.
What an oxymoron! :(
He’s capable of every evil of which you can conceive, and then some more:
Example:
http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/2112975/posts
“Linda Harvey, president of Mission America, says many parents would be frightened to know that one of Senator Obama’s top homosexual fundraisers founded a group, namely GLSEN, which has recommended books that condone sex between men and teenage boys.
“...GLSEN believes that there should be homosexual clubs in K-12 schools, that children can self-determine their own sexuality at the grade-school level, that evidently it’s fine for children to read and be exposed to many, many child corruption elements of sexuality, including the possibility of having sex with an adult,” Harvey explains...”
The reason no one stopped Hitler even after reading Mein Kampf was because ordinary, decent human beings just couldn’t believe anyone could be capable of the evil he wrote about...and when they did understand, it was too late.
Expand Service-Learning in Our Nation’s Schools:
In November, Barack Obama laid out a comprehensive plan to provide all Americans with a world-class education and give our schools a substantial infusion of funds to support teachers and principals and improve student learning.
That plan conditions that assistance on school districts developing programs to engage students in service opportunities. Obama and Biden believe that middle and high school students should be expected to engage in community service for 50 hours annually during the school year or summer months.
They will develop national guidelines for service-learning and community service programs, and will give schools better tools both to develop successful programs and to document the experience of students at all levels.
They will encourage programs that engage with community partners to expand opportunities for community service and service-learning opportunities, so that students can apply what they learn in the classroom to authentic situations that help the community.
These programs will also involve citizens from the community engaging students in service opportunities through the Classroom Corps."

bingo!
As Arthur Wildfire! March said the seniors will have to work for their socialist security checks, by mailing propaganda to the masses I guess.

I certainly am well past 41, but they would put my dead body in one of them, but not my walking, talking, shooting live one.
Knowing how homeschoolers hate government intrusion, I thought that pinging the list would be indicated.
While this is not necessarily a specifically homeschool related issue, it does have ramifications that could affect us greatly.
Word needs to get out about what’s in the future if obama gets in.
Interesting to note that even liberal leaning groups like the Hillary supporters of PUMA are alarmed about this because they read the meaning behind the words of Obama and Biden.
I'm all in favor of an armed populace. Matter of fact, the comments I've been hearing lately are pushing me like never before to make some serious gun and ammo purchases.
What? You honestly don’t think that the liberals wouldn’t do this if they could?
Oh, I have no doubt that homeschooling is a BIG target for the left if they get into power.
You don’t think them liberals wouldn’t do it if they could?
Dream on.
No. I don’t.

God bless you for fighting the good fight in education. Speaking of which:
OBAMA’S EDUCATION IDIOCY (Includes Ayers as Confidant)
http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/2112506/posts
“If you went back and asked, you’d be hard-pressed to find out how the money was spent.”
As it turns out, the Obama-helmed CAC was directing big bucks toward the propagation - in Chicago public schools - of the whack-job racist ideology most famously preached by Obama’s former pastor, the Rev. Jeremiah Wright.
What did Obama tell his wife?
“Barack Obama will require you to work. He is going to demand that you shed your cynicism. That you put down your divisions. That you come out of your isolation, that you move out of your comfort zone . . . Barack will never allow you to go back to your lives as usual - uninvolved, uninformed.”
What flavor is that Kool-aid?
BO and Mrs. BO can take their collective plans for my life and shove them.
