Can you tell me what page this is on?
(5) The effect on the Nation, on those who
17 serve, and on the families of those who serve, if all
18 individuals in the United States were expected to

20 a certain amount of national service.

The stupid thing is many (most?) of us already volunteer in some capacity at some time. Of course, it’s none of the govt’s business if we do or don’t, but Americans tend to be very giving in that regard.

Obama is not the king. He's the POTUS.While he may not be POTUS now, (ineligible to the office), at the rate things are going he will be the King by November of 2010, although he'll continue to call himself President. He'll do that even after 2016.

Republicans in Congress know we won’t boot them out for walking in lockstep with Obama.
***I know and it makes me sick! They believe that if they have some conservative stances that’s okay with us. I’m tired of the middle of the road let’s all get along reach across the aisle crap. If that’s too far right wing for Steele then he can go pound sand.
When have the Dems ever “reached out” to conservatives?

The irony of this whole thing is that you have a black president advocating de facto slavery.Not that ironic when you stop to consider that his white ancestors were slaveowners and his Arab ancestors were slave traders.
Just keeping up the family business.
Ptoooie.

Great letter at 853. I don't think the “neighbors helping neighbors” aspect will surface until there have been a lot of flagrant mini-Wacos. Then I think it will become prevalent.

I don't think the neighbors helping neighbors aspect will surface until there have been a lot of flagrant mini-Wacos.
Perhaps something as simple as "neighborhood meetings" in which we get to know at least some of our neighbors, could help. Every area could have its own "neighborhood watch", which would hopefully evolve into some sort of "mutual defense network".
Another positive thing about such a "get to know your neighbors" effort could be a real "heads-up" as to who any potential "Benedict Arnolds" might be.
BTW, I have read with great interest some of your bio stuff, and I thank you for your distinguished service & accomplishments.

So far we have the ability to stop what we see is occuring the queston is will we. I have faith that we will. I hear you.....
I had faith that Bush would take out the Iran nuke sites after the election but before Osama took office.....I was mistaken. He had been neutered and de-clawed so severely he would rather go down in history as the one who allowed Iranian nukes happen without resistance. After all, he knew who was taking over. I saw it as his DUTY to act before the appeaser took charge.
I think we are going to get into communism too deep to turn around easily by the next election. The RATS are in a full tilt sprint to push their communist agenda before they are kicked out of Congressional and Senatorial control in 2010. Even with a turnover in 2010, Obama will veto all efforts to overturn his gains. It will take a large conservative majority in both houses and the Whitehouse in 2012 to even begin to unravel this mess.

We have many forms of electronics to listen and monitor the airwaves and such as icom all mode transceivers in vehicles and home, aor scanners, etc etc ....... yet in times of emergency or goobermint cracking down on such sharing of info we will transmit only in emergencies or using packet etc . after watching Katrina fiasco we decided that such as sat tv and radio were good additions to the home , motorhome and our vehicles with a tracker antenna added to our road trip suburban. Information is golden to avoid trouble !

To: HotLead61
I agree with getting to know your neighbors, but you don’t want to get too far out in front. Better to formulate various neighborhood watch contingencies, and then wait for some emergency (break ins, crimes) to present them at a meeting. If you are too far out in front pushing these concepts, too many people will mark you down as a “paranoid busybody” and will not be receptive to your ideas later.
