And what will the penalty be if I refuse to force my child to participate?

Just refuse to do it. You owe Obama nothing, and he can demand nothing of you.

Replace "Obama" with "Hitler."

How many Germans in 1933 said what you said? And what do you think happened to them.

That is what I say. But they inflicted the sob on us also.

this needs to be done asap

Assuming they can't kill it, Republicans should insist that the implementing legislation should adhere to the premise underlying the so-called "Fairness Doctrine." For every leftist community service organization qualified, there must also be a conservative service available.

That's only fair, after all.

Can we please put PRAYER back in the schools first?

Yeah, like that'll ever happen. Taking prayer out of schools is one of the things that started us down this God-awful road in the first place. (not yelling at you...just conversing...this whole thing is freaking disgusting)

Oh, my God. This is true. They have a change.gov website set up.

And look at the date of the column. July 2008. How did we miss this?
Compulsory service? Damn! I just calmed myself down today, and now this. He’s not wasting any time. I repeat what I said Wednesday: I am so glad that I never brought children into a world like this.

So much for civil liberties and individual freedoms in this country.

Watch how they’re going to dress it up and sell it to the sheeple.

That's for sure. I've never seen such an advertising scheme. I mean, there's obama shirts, obama hats, obama coffee mugs, obama pens and pencils...I even saw an obama baby bib. He could sell milk to cows.
obama's got it goin' on, now!

It'll happen. They're measuring the restrooms for footbaths, ordering the prayer rugs and orienting the school entrances toward Mecca as we speak.

I wish him luck getting the welfare queens off the sofa to work. Of course they won’t do that. Instead the welfare queen will sit on her publicly subsidized butt and eat her subsidized food in the subsidized housing watching Judge Judy and Oprah (on a big screen) talking on her subsidized telephone all day long. Maybe when she manages to get out to ride the subsidized public transit to the hospital for subsidized healthcare or to the social services office to increase her benefits she can thank your kid or parent for mowing her grass.

Wow, I feel jaded after reading that.

Odumbo thinks he is king. You watch.

Obama IS king!

I saw a photo of some old concrete in front of his elementary school in Hawaii. He had scratched "King Obama" into the wet concrete years ago.

AND... there is this worthy donation link from Home School Legal Defense Association, a nonprofit advocacy organization established to defend and advance the constitutional right of parents to direct the education of their children and to protect family freedoms! (Shameless plug from a card carrying member.)

Can’t Obama just make the wealthy do community service? I’m kinda comfortable just sitting here, waiting for sh*t to be given to me like he promised. Next he’s gonna tell me I have to fill my own gas tank.

I thought it was a pretty lousy idea. I congratulate those who do volunteer work, but forced “volunteer” work is, obviously, an oxymoron. Just not something I think schools have any business requiring students to do - I’d prefer that they concentrate on turning out graduates who can actually read, do a little math, and have a smattering of knowledge of history and geography.

It’ll have a different name, something official sounding, but it will be ACORN with federal power and money behind it, and your kids will work for it. There’s not a thing you can do about it.

BS
WOLVERINES!!

Well, as history goes... parent's refusing to put their children in Hitlerjugend had them taken away. Oooops, that's CPS's job!
