“Neither slavery nor involuntary servitude, except as a punishment for crime whereof the party shall have been duly convicted, shall exist within the United States, or any place subject to their jurisdiction.”

Well, there you have it! If you won’t serve you’re a criminal and then you have to serve.

These turkeys are going to overreach badly. I look forward to it.

Really! Some of the folks on this thread sound like this would only affect liberal young people. As suggested, this would apply to all kids from middle school through college, and also to retirees.

My kids are all quite conservative, and there are lots of young people out there just like them. They did nothing to deserve this!They are already busy with loads of volunteer services, like painting pregnancy centers, spreading the gospel in the intercity, putting roofs on Christian orphanages, and teaching Vacation Bible School and Sunday School. Somehow, I’m guessing those kind of service projects won’t count.

I'm listening this Rahm guy and I'm thinking, “whatever happened to limited government!” He is saying that we “owe” the government our time and energy.

I say, “back off bub. You're the servant, I'm the master, leave me the hell alone.”

Yours is a well-written comment that's right on the money.

Some freepers stated many moons ago on this forum that this campaign would smoke out the RINOS, the turncoats, the traitors, the empty-headed bloviators and pundits pretending to be fair and balanced.

How correct these freeper prognosticators were. Sooner or later the mask slips a la Brit Hume and Carl Cameron.

Rahm Emmanuel—”Diversity is Strength” “Common Experience”

That is, Ex unus , plures.

Or still more to the point:

"War is Peace"

"Freedom is Slavery"

"Ignorance is Strength"

Whatever.

Is this the new security force or is that separate?

Separate. The people labor, the security force enforces it.

I’m Canadian, (thank God), and I just can’t see how you can elect some jerk-water buffoons into office and then sit back and allow them to dictate and enforce their fanciful agendas upon yourselves and your children for the duration of their tenure. ... Like they say, Sometimes you get the government you deserve.

As though all of that doesn't apply to numerous Canadian PMs over the years.

Rahm said that Citizenship is not an entitlement, it is a responsibility.

Who's running the place? Rahm? Or Obama?

please tell your Canadians that he only got where he was though massive voter fraud, millions i illegal money and a very biased corrupt media.

In GA they found over 100,000 voters whom voted in FL and OH election.
They caught up with one women here in Daytona beach and asked her about why she voted i GA and FL.
She said she did not remember voting in GA and that her main address is in GA

You see here i FLorida we have hundreds of thousands of north easterners who come here to escape the cold, we call them snow birds and they vote in their north east liberal state and then come here and use their vacation winter address to vote here in Florida.

That is why he is where he is.

The people never voted for the clown if this was a fair election but McCain did concede before all military votes came in and did not ask for a recount to throw all those fraudulent votes out.

He wanted a upstanding honest campaign.
worked well didn’t it?

Ah, those Bolivaran Circles. Hugo will rejoice along with his pal Barry. Next, we’ll nationalize the oil industry so we can be efficient like Mexico.

I was wondering if the new Prez wouldn’t be using our forces in “peace-keeping” in Kenya and other wonderful civil wars on the idyllic continent of Africa?

Just discussing Rahm’s book in which RE mentions almost identical plans as Obama. Because Obama has chosen Rahm as his COS, and we cannot see any further into Obama’s plans, we are reading from Rahm’s book, which may indicate ideas into what Obama is planning.
