I've seen it this way since last year...

The brown coats are a comming
November is going to be a doozy
I wished I'd saved that which I read...as it was directly from the bill.
What I read said nothing about having arms...
Sometime Judge N..goes a bit off. Maybe that explains the set...."A bar"
When the going for those of us who actually produce gets measurably rough, we’ll take care of things.
Meanwhile, someone please print the address of Ayers.
Really.
Of course, this is only for academic interest.
I am getting more angry every day.
Is this America or Zimbabwe?
**********************
I think our country has a new name now and has been colonized by Kenya and is currently being ruled by Emperor Barack Hussein Obama:
Obambwe
Yes, that is the new name of the former Representative Republic, the United States of America.
At least until this November.
This has been debunked, by Ed Morrissey over at HotAir. The “Ready Reserve Corps” has apparently been around since at least 1944; all ObamaCare does to it is change some of its funding.
It’s terrifying that these things can exist for so long without anyone even really realizing it.
If anything...they will walking up and down the streets yelling....”Bring out your dead!...Bring out your dead!!”
Thanks.
Buy Yuengling if you can. Oldest brewery in America. Family owned. Good beer.
Its on page 1312 “Establishing a Ready Reserve Corps”
...oops, I meant “corpse”
Sorry........
I read about this the other day- and a freeper explained this is adding to an already existing government group- but it is still unsettling because we remember his “national security defense force” promise.
I spent an entire weekend in July 07 reading his platform on his website. Every policy and “promise”. I was completely prepared for everything he’s doing. It was all there for anyone who wanted to read it- but it was shocking to me then.

That’s a hurtful, unwarranted slap in the face to all madmen.
Just imagine the look on his face when he slams that into what he thinks is a wooden door, but turns out to be a steel door set in concrete. I would think all three of them would have a real dumb look on their face. As if they don’t have that now!!!!
Visit the webpage (last updated in 2007) describing the Public Health, Commissioned Corps.
All the provision in the bill does is create a group which bears the same relationship the the Public Health Service's Commissioned Corps as the Army Reserve bears to the active-duty components of the Army (why we need a uniformed service consisting of physicians and nurses under HHS, is another matter, but it is rather venerable as Federal bureaucratic institutions go--see its history here).
If the GOP majority next year decides that gutting Obamacare and filling the shell with market-based reforms is preferable to just repealing it, this provision might even hang on as part of the shell.
SEC. 5210. ESTABLISHING A READY RESERVE CORPS.
Section 203 of the Public Health Service Act (42 U.S.C. 204) is amended to read as follows:

That looks to me to be a standing militia, to circumvent and contravene the 2nd amendment...
Barack-Insane-Obama does not realize how big America is and how resilient we are - I’m 5’5’ and 110 but I’m a buzz saw when it comes to my rights .... I will not go quietly into that dark night ...
Never had it. I still drink Coors to be honest. Also like Leinenkugels and Amstel Light. Not against foreign beers necessarily, as long as they are good.
