To: Arthur Wildfire! March

Doesn’t he have plans for all of us to do mandatory volunteerism or some such thing? I am curious as to who will be exempted from service.

That’s what Michelle Obama said. We would be REQUIRED to work and to be informed [his way].

Doesn’t this read like a strip from Dilbert?

Yes, and it’s what he said at the Service Nation Forum at Columbia, part of his quote:

OBAMA QUOTE:
“I want to restore that.

But it’s also important that a president speaks to military service as an obligation not just of some, but of many. You know, I traveled, obviously, a lot over the last 19 months. And if you go to small towns, throughout the Midwest or the Southwest or the South, every town has tons of young people who are serving in Iraq and Afghanistan. That’s not always the case in other parts of the country, in more urban centers. And I think it’s important for the president to say, this is an important obligation. If we are going into war, then all of us go, not just some.” unquote.
