Hey, let me know if you are able to get his book at the library. I can’t find it at my library so I may buy it (ARRRRRRRRRRRRGGGG!) and highlight the heck out of it.

An idle citizen is an unappreciated citizen.

That's what Joseph Stalin said before he killed off all the "useless eaters".

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.

That dufus, his cronies, and their respective handlers really do suppose that they RULE and they will if you let them.

It’s a government by the people, for the people only until the oath of office. Then it’s a groan and gripe until the next election. This time there’s going to be considerably more groans and gripes.

Like they say, Sometimes you get the government you deserve.

a obama fan... “I’m encouraged that Obama will make our senior citizens earn their paychecks. “”

I am just days away from 69 y/o.
I have worked and paid taxes since I was 16.
I have earned the soc sec I contributed to.

I didn’t “claim a SSI disability” to start sucking out of Soc Sec at age 21.
I didn’t use drugs. I didn’t drink and drive. I didn’t impact the judicial system.
I didn’t get a “new scooter” from the “Scooter store” for free thru medicare.
I didn’t get a lawyer to get SSI when I didn’t deserve it.

I worked. I still work.
There are so many phony people who are claiming all kinds of disabilities so they can sit on their behinds and collect SSI, it is really an epidemic.

“Share the American Experience?””
Michelle-—this is the woman who claimed that the first series of stimulus checks of “ONLY” $600 “wasn’t enough to buy a decent pair of earrings”.

Somehow, I don’t think she has had the same “American Experience” that I and many of my friends have enjoyed.
None of us have ever bought a $600 pair of earrings. That was the price of my house payment....which I paid from 1966 forward.

Oboma’s a miserable failure already, and the electorates haven’t even given him their votes yet.

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

I think a lot of these kids don’t even know about this plan. I was talking about Obama with a 21 year old relative that voted for McCain, but said maybe Obama will do a good job. I then told her about this mandatory service plan and she said, “What?! No, no, no! What are they going to do if people refuse, throw them in jail?.” She holds a full time job, goes to school, a part time job and has volunteered in the past so she is definitely not lazy.

"What?! No, no, no! What are they going to do if people refuse, throw them in jail?.”

Stalin just killed off all his descenders. Once Oboma sets up his in country army, I suppose history will be repeating itself. So far, it's almost word for word.
