He (McCain) was just being nice. I heard it. Didn’t care for the whole forum. Anytime a bunch of rich elitists get together to talk about public service as if it is some kind of strange beast that people don’t do enough of I want to puke. Why is it with the left that they think that things that most people just do on their own must be turned into some kind of cause reinforced by government. Most don’t quantify it when they help a neighbor in need or rally to the cause of those caught up in a disaster. Does public service have to be some kind of guilt trip where liberal elitists can point their finger at people and say scoldingly “You aren’t doing enough”.

Well screw the self important lot of them. We don’t need government to encourage public service. We have churches and community organizations.

Like the Bush "New Tone?" Is that what Freepers are giving slack to now? We've been down that road before! We need to DEFEAT the other side, not make nice with them.
