And don’t forget Caligula also thought he was the Messiah.
It may be too much to hope that O becomes a national joke and is therefore, neutralized. However, I am not optimistic about that.
I would like one explanation from Obama that no one seems to be addressing. What did he mean when he said “We need a civilian arm, as big, as well funded and as well equiped as our regular military.” What would he do with this “cilivian military, who will they report to, what’s their purpose, how will it be funded, what authority over our citizens will they have? I don’t want a quick explanation, I want an explanation that goes into the deepest reasons for this. We need to know what he meant.
I have noticed an editorial change in the wording of Obama’s plan for America Serves. You can find it in his transition site...change.org.
Instead of using the word “require” in reference to the community service of middle school kids, high school kids and college students, the phrase “developing a plan” is now being used. There must have been some fall-out on this.
Also note, the tax credit is a new addition to the statement. The last time I checked this site was on Friday 11-07-08.
