PING
If you want on (or off) the *PING* List, post on this thread or FReepMail me please.
Thanks joygrace for a great post of this upcomming legislation proposed by a fool, directed towards a nation almost, but not completly, filled with fools.
Will the MSM ping on the “Orrin Hatch” snipet? Methinksnot.
But then again, We already know as well as the next logical person, exactly how this is going to go:
Some ‘Republican’ will reject the expansion of government that this bill would surley ensure, that same republican will be labled as a racist/homophobe/segregationist, you know, a guy like Orrin Hatch.
The hipocracy, oh the hipocracy..
To encourage a renewed spirit of national service for this and future generations, I ask this Congress to send me the bipartisan legislation... the president said.

From Øbama, who hates the America he see’s?
The brilliant Paul Weyrich (founder of Heritage Foundation) wrote a concise article in TownHall on the “Government Usurpation of Volunteerism” last year before “The Give Act” was defeated. It applies today.
“...Americans have actively and spontaneously engaged in civic and political life by forming voluntary associations. The emphasis is on the voluntary aspect of these organizations and their intention to affect change in government.
While all levels of government might have encouraged civic participation, the Federal Government did not create and fund its own voluntary societies, let alone micromanage them.
To do so would have had the reverse effect of the original intention of voluntary associations - it would have allowed politicians a unique means of manipulating public policy for their own agenda, ideological or otherwise.”
Giving you a Ping for this thread.
