God save us from bipartisanship, part 99,995,857. GOP Sen. Orrin Hatch, co-sponsor of the $6 billion GIVE/SERVE boondoggle, has dedicated the Big Government Trojan Horse to Ted Kennedy:

Sen. Orrin Hatch capped his decadeslong friendship with cancer-stricken Sen. Ted Kennedy on Thursday with a gesture that had Kennedy hugging him as other senators stood and applauded: Hatch renamed a bill they had just passed to expand national service programs the Edward M. Kennedy National Service Law.

“It is a great honor to be able to add the name of a very good friend and senator, one of the most distinguished of all-time, to this bill,” Hatch told the Senate. “We expect this to multiply into 7 million volunteers, and to call it the Edward M. Kennedy bill is a great honor for all of us.”

If I'm not mistaken, shouldn't the fat, treasonous bastard be in jail for abandoning a drowning woman?

[sionnsar]

... On a related note, the congressional push to study a mandatory service requirement was dropped from the GIVE/SERVE package, but is part of a stand-alone bill to establish the “Congressional Commission on Civic Service.”

It’s HR 1444: ...

They're congratulating themselves for wasting our money?

Let the A$$holes try to make their National Servie bs mandatory. Neither I or my family will be playing along.

There is a line in the sand ....

[Politicalmom]

Hey!! My 13 year old daughter was walking by and got a look at that. What are you trying to do, traumatize the poor child?

[Hoffer Rand]

Since Hatch seems to like single word bills (i.e., DREAM, GIVE), I have one for him.

RETIRE

The Royals in the Royal 100 Club are supporters of each other and not the United States or We The People.

Today I am no longer a Republican. I have voted for and supported Republicans and have defended them when everyone is shooting them down, but no more. When I saw how many GOP signatures was on this GIVE bill, I actually wept for my party.

I just wish someone would ask some of these RINOS what in the heck do they think the 'volunteers' will be doing? Is there a job where they are needed? Do we have a project in mind? Also why does volunteerism have to cost money. I have volunteered over and over again and I didn't need a fancy uniform, or money or anything else.

[sportutegrl]

By Royals you mean Sir Ossis of Liver? (Kennedy)

[ari-freedom]

more like royal pain in the arse

On behalf of the people of Utah that didn’t have the sense to vote this senile clown out of office, I apologize.

“...one of the most distinguished of all-time,...”

I know politics is but a stupid game, but when crap like this is spewed about a drunk, liar, thief, hypocrite, and accomplice to murder (Abortion and his votes/charity towards pro-abortion outfits, not just leaving the car) it becomes a case of “When in the course of human events...” 2009 style.
