Is this the change you really voted for? President Obama has only been in office for two months. Now we have HR 1388. The Bill was sponsored by Rep. Carolyn McCarthy (D-NY) with 37 others. The Bill was introduced to the floor of the House of Representatives where both Republicans and Democrats voted 321-105 in favor. Next it goes to the Senate for a vote and then on to President Obama.
This bills title is called Generations Invigorating Volunteerism and Education (GIVE). It forms what some are calling Obamas Youth Brigade. Obamas plan is require anyone receiving school loans and others to serve at least three months as part of the brigade. His goal is one million youth! This has serious Nazi Germany overtones to it.

Is it too early to start talking about impeachment???
Have you ever seen Pimfst en Dienst (Spell?) Its the HJ hand book. When my grandchildren come home to show me how to throw a grenade, and the proper positions of firing rifles I’ll worry. If teaching youth to do some community service like cleaning the highway or a corner lot is revolutionary, then so be it. We shouldn’t have to do that, but lets face it, the kids today spend most of their time with their computer, cell phone or X Box.
“We shouldnt have to do that, but lets face it, the kids today spend most of their time with their computer, cell phone or X Box.”
Don’t make assumptions about my children for me... that’s Obama’s job and you’re not describing my kids above.
Freedom is important to me and so is my ability to choose to raise my kids as I wish. If you really feel the way you write you are no better than the Democrats, and I refuse to resign myself to that. If we bow to that, where in the world do you think it’s going to stop? We keep saying when it gets bad enough we’ll protest but when it does it will be to late.
Hand over your freedoms if you like, Mr. Bringbackthedraft... I’ll hold on to mine as long as I can thank you very much.
