One thing about President Barack Hussein Obama, he usually means what he says, at least initially that is. He is always having to back track to cover up the things he really meant when he said it the first time. For example, he said the Rearend Wright was his spirtual mentor. Anyone who has studied the guy knows that this was truly what he meant, but of course Obama had to eventually dump the Rearend when he continued to hear flack about that asscociation of twenty years. Then there are many things he has spoken that are so unfamiliar with the typical American lexicon that they have been shrugged off as just campaign rhetoric. When he mentioned about having a "civilian national security force" that was just as strong and equally funded as the military, it went without hardly a mention by the major news outlets. Obama has never been pressed on this, and so he has not had to do his kabuki dance around what he meant. Oh, you heard about it in conservative pockets, like on Townhall, and on my blog on Yahoo 360. The thing is, this President is serious about what he says. In the video from July when he said it, the people just clapped on cue like a bunch of Obamatons while their beloved candidate was telling them that he will have a federal security force within our own country to enforce the coming federal mandates upon the states and the people.
Here's the comments from July, along with a well done illustration using the music from the "Sing for Change" kiddies that were used during the campaign. Thanks to Brain Dead Republican on youtube.

Well, Mr. President Obama repeated his remarks just the other day at the dedication of Abraham Lincoln Hall at the National Defense University in Washington, D.C..
"And thats why my administration is committed to renewing diplomacy as a tool of American power, and to developing our civilian nationanl security capabilities We have to enlist our civilians in the same way that we enlist those members of the armed services in understanding this broad mission that we have."
You can read more extensively by going to a great site called RightReborn.com . Their post has extensive links on this topic, including an audio clip from the Mark Levin show that has the above comments by Obama. During the campaign, I kept steering people to Investor's Business Daily and their series Audacity of Socialism. RightReborn also mentions IBD and one of the articles of that series. What good is information if it is never received and acted on in wisdom? The past couple of years have been a frustrating exercise for those who seek to truly inform others. There just does not seem to be much reception until everything goes to hell in a handbasket.
Obama’s handlers won’t allow this until his popularty rebounds. To assign this concept to him is a mistake.
Yes, I remember the singing kiddies, singing for Chairman Obama.
The world’s strongest military isn’t exactly behind the guy: they barely clap for him. They’ll follow his lawful orders but if he started getting all sideways, we’d see the military break up just like it did at the start of the Civil War.
What will this force be called?
Brown shirts?
Ah, yes, the sure to be popular mandatory “volunteer” force.
He’s WAY worse than I thought he would be.
Savage suggested “Green Shirts.”
A liitle known fact concerning the final days of Nixon. The Joint Chiefs jad a process in place to avoid any order from Nixon that would not be in the best interest of the nation.
“We have to enlist our civilians in the same way that we enlist those members of the armed services in understanding the broad mission that we have.”
And what broad mission would that be...as though I had to ask...
No. It will be called the Office of Homeland Defense.
Scary.
Every once in a while you read/hear a conservative advocate for the very same thing. Being a fellow vet, it sickens me to read/hear it every single time. I know the percentage of individuals that volunteered who had a change of heart -- and you still were expected to lead those people. Imagine compulsory service...in anything.
If this is true, then the JCS should have been court martialed. This is outrageous.
And take the guns away from the rest of us.
I don't think he will accomplish the latter.

I wrote about this on my blog and Zero said as much at the Columbia Service Forum, but it was like people were asleep at the wheel...this is not good.
Some of his recruits?
