“So, while one “volunteers”, they lose their constitutional rights?”

Aren’t active military fols supposed to refrain from political activities?

Moot, though, the Senate version does not have that section.

Just pulling out the last part of your post...

What "CORPORATION" is this they refer to? A CORPORATION run by the government? A New one? An old one? One that already exists, but they are expanding it?

Inquiring minds, and all that! LOL

[MrB]

the majority of Americans just want to be “left alone”

And leaving people alone is antithetical to the ideology of those who currently have power and seek to entrench themselves.

see tagline

The unwashed masses are jumping for joy a the free stuff.

this is essentially UNIONIZING the volunteers so they get more free stuff.

Obama is comming across as a sugar daddy for the urban sewer dweller class.

Thank you too Holly. You would not believe how many people are looking at the site.

EVERY aspect of 0bama’s agenda falls under the heading of “reparations”.

KBH voted FOR cloture and Cornyn did not vote? What is wrong with that picture? Both will be getting a letter from this PO’ed Texan.

"KBH voted FOR cloture and Cornyn did not vote? What is wrong with that picture?"

There has never been any question in my mind WRT KBH, she is an authoritarian, and a globalist; Cornyn has some similar tendencies, but seems to be trying to distance himself from his past voting habits. I don't buy it.

This is not Good Meek.

thanks for the ping.

It is actually under Sec. 1304, amending the National and Community Service Act of 1990, Section 125, to become “PROHIBITED ACTIVITIES AND INELIGIBLE ORGANIZATIONS” & what follows (it’s currently Sec. 125 12575 “Training and technical assistance”). At least that’s what I’m seeing.

[Mr. Jeeves]

The face of the new Corps will be black and female, so it will be impossible to make the MSM understand the similarities to the SA. Any columnist who dares to draw the comparison will instantly shouted down as racist.

Here’s what I’m using, S 277 as reported in Senate. “Prohibited” is not in any title and shows once in the body. I wonder what’s wrong?

“In addition, Senator Hatch mentioned that the Rev. Rick Warren, the evangelical minister of Saddleback Church and author of “A Purpose Driven Life,” was an enthusiastic supporter of this effort...

This shows how much trouble we are really in.”

Just look up Rick Warren and P.E.A.C.E. Plan and Apostasy and see what comes up.

Rick Warren speaking at the Davos World Economic Forum:

“At the World Economic Forum in Davos you will hear endlessly recited the importance of public and private partnerships in attacking global problems. While this is certainly essential, it is not enough. Neither business nor government has the universal distribution, the ARMY of volunteers or the credibility in villages to get the job done. A one- or two-legged stool will fall over. You need three legs.”

The bill enjoyed extraordinary bipartisan support, including namely the major co-sponsor, Senator Orrin Hatch, Republican of Utah, who tonight even recommended reading the biography of R. Sargent Shriver, relative by marriage to the Kennedys and who directed the original Peace Corps from 1961 to 1966.

In addition, Senator Hatch mentioned that the Rev. Rick Warren, the evangelical minister of Saddleback Church and author of “A Purpose Driven Life,” was an enthusiastic supporter of this effort, as was Senator John McCain, the former Republican presidential nominee. The latter’s support, to Senator Hatch, demonstrated the exceptional bipartisan backing of the expansion.

Effin' quislings.

It’s time for Texas to cut out from the herd.

Thanks Holly B! Cowardly and sneaky passing this under cover of night.

I don’t wear tin foil at all, but starting to look like time to wrap the old noggin. Wow, that is funny how close together we posted the same link.
