You’re right, you are totally right...
Kids are not lazy and parents are not lazy.
Kids are not self-centered, parents are not self-centered.
Kids are not overweight, parents are not overweight.
Kids play real instruments instead of fake ones.
Kids engage in social activity over online simulation.
It is sad read that you think 1 hour of community service week, as part of high school graduation credit is socialism.
Clearly you were NEVER a boyscout.
“Whenever you find yourself on the side of the majority, it’s time to pause and reflect.”

Clearly you were NEVER a boyscout.
Actually - I was a Cub Scout and a Boy Scout...my mom was a den mother and my cousin was a scout master. And I was both because I CHOSE to participate. Not because somebody at the FEDERAL LEVEL FORCED ME INTO IT. I was FREE to make that choice for MYSELF.
Compulsory ANYTHING at the FEDERAL level is NOT conservatism.
If you truly think so, your credentials are pretty much shot here. Go try over on DU or Kos-land...they love statists over there...

Based on what you said, clearly you were NEVER a boyscout.

Hey newb, how about you stop lecturing me and try and get your perceptions under control. Now listen closely you fake conservative---"community service" is NOT TO BE made COMPULSORY by THE STATE. I'm guessing you're one of the enlightened ones who voted for Obama (the community service organizer) to "teach the republicans a lesson." Makes me sick.
Now go back to your little local newspaper message board stop bothering actual conservatives.

Ummm he wants it for middle school too.
I’d be thrilled if passing an exit exam was part of graduating. Otherwise, leave the volunteering to the family. I don’t need some idiots in DC telling me how to live my life.

It is sad read that you think 1 hour of community service week, as part of high school graduation credit is socialism. And it is sad that you can not see that socialism is exactly what it is.
