Appearances...
Remember 0bama said in his first election campaign...about a force internally as strong as our military...He didn’t get that in the first term.
Recent questions if officers etc. would fire on American citizens...
0bama needs a reason for conscription. Take a look at the section I quoted ...there was been a lengthy discussion within the Democratic Party over the need for some form of universal service....
They are softening up the military to roll out a draft.
Congressman Charles Rangel, a Democrat (NY), introduced on 14 February 2006 a bill (HR 4752) in the US Congress which requires: “all persons in the United States, including women, between the ages of 18 and 42 to perform a [two year] period of military service or a period of civilian service in furtherance of the national defense and homeland security, and for other purposes.”
The bill applies to both US citizens and non-citizens, to men and women. There does not appear to be a provision which would exempt women who are pregnant and/or caring for infants/children in a young age. The bill also supports Big Brother. Those who are not sent overseas to the war theater would, according to the clauses of the bill, be inducted into the civilian homeland defense corps and other civilian duties, including the Citizens Corps, the “Neighborhood Watch Teams” and the “Volunteer Police Service” established in partnership with local law enforcement. www.citizencorps.gov/pdf/council.pdf (looks like the pdf has been scrubbed)http://www.knowthelies.com/node/3524
There it is...Citizens Corps.... this “bill” didn’t just go away, it is waiting in the wings.
2006: “—To provide for the common defense by requiring all persons in the United States, including women, between the ages of 18 and 42 to perform a period of military service or a period of civilian service in furtherance of the national defense and homeland security, and for other purposes.”[1]
2010: “To require all persons in the United States between the ages of 18 and 42 to perform national service, either as a member of the uniformed services or in civilian service in furtherance of the national defense and homeland security... and for other purposes.” See H. R. 5741
2008: “We cannot continue to rely on our military in order to achieve the national security objectives that we’ve set. We’ve got to have a civilian national security force that’s just as powerful, just as strong, just as well-funded.”[20] Barack Obama

Well, that sounds like fascism. Federal “Neighborhood Watch” programs? I don’t doubt your facts are correct, but that would turn us into Mao’s China, Stalin’s Russia, and Hitler’s Germany.
