What a shock..Murkowski and McCain voted yes..what I am surprised about is Chambliss, come on Saxby, after everything Sarah did to get you elected you do this..shame shame

[Wisconsinlady]

McCain is a dumbass. Voting for “mandatory volunteerism” is voting for “involuntary servitude”.

Stupid dick lugar. I might have guessed it.
Why would these fools vote for this? Mark Souder voted yes also, Mike Pence voted no.

[brushcop]

Ah yes, our lil’ ol’ cheerleader Kay Bailey Hutchison is there, jes like I thought she’d be. Pathetic pro-abortion, closet socialist but maybe not so closet now...

[GOP Poet]

How much is this liberal piece of hooey costing us? People want to ‘give back’ join a church, volunteer at your local hospital or somewhere in your community, donate money or time to charities. We don’t need taxpayer money or a bill to make this happen. Our government is completely off the rails! Duly noted regarding the list of Yes voters. Thanks for the post.

[mysterio]

Not surprised to see Lugar on that list.

[azishot]

“...broadly expand incentives for students and seniors to give back to their communities.”

***Is this the same bill that will make it mandatory to volunteer?

Let McCain’s daughter go first.

The republican party needs to be sent to the trash heap. A new party is needed that advocates a smaller federal government, state rights, and a general overall return to what our founding father’s had in mind for our country. The republican party hasn’t been that party, and I see no indication of anything changing.

Over the past few years when the republicans weren’t promoting outright socialism themselves, the republican idea of resisting the socialism of the dems is one of “me too, only we will do it a little less”. Screw that.

The RINO Party Alert.

Just say no to liberals, turncoats, and traitors!

We don't intend to turn the Republican Party over to the traitors in the battle just ended.
We will have no more of those candidates who are pledged to the same goals of our opposition and who seek our support. Turning the party over to the so-called moderates wouldn't make any sense at all. — President Ronald Wilson Reagan

NO! to on-demand abortion. NO! to homosexual marriage. NO! to amnesty for illegals. NO! to gun control. NO! to affirmative action.

NO! to more spending. NO! to more taxes. NO! to bailouts and pork. NO! to carbon credits. NO! to the Socialist agenda.

[Roos_Girl]

Has anyone actually read the bill? It’s VERY long to sift through. If you have, can you point me to the areas of the bill that people are claiming makes volunteering mandatory?
