With those superpowers, we better name him dictator for life, or he'll turn us all into spider monkeys.
Boo!
Anything is possible when you have a propaganda machine.
So when Obama said you can keep your doctor if you like your doctor, PERIOD!
what did you think he meant? He emphasized the word PERIOD! to make it crystal clear there were no conditions.
His medical ethicist explained it to Chris Wallace. Zeke said Obama meant you can keep your doctor, if you can afford to keep your doctor. Well how did we miss that ? The NYT surely never felt a need to cover that 'misunderstanding'
Zeke's explanation of Obama's words never made the headlines. Obama's was never challenged on his claim you can keep your doctor. Why was that? It was important enough for obama to emphasize. If the president of the USA can be so cavalier with his words, he certainly he loses respect.
So a promise made by obama to make the PPACA palatable, was broken and it doesn't raise a bit of curiosity? Even monkeys are known for their curiosity.
Must be nice to be so complacent that you find comfort in the words, "we have to pass it to find out what is in it".
Hey, you can keep your guns if you like your guns, PERIOD!
'Spider monkey' must be the code name for socialist! now we know.

You're kind of cute when you're outraged. I'm still trying to figure out how Obama uses punctuation to perform his magic. Maybe it's with his PERIODS!
Who the bloody hell needs anything more than the life-time Secret Service protection that he already gets?
Silly, silly people.
Reminiscent of Hitlers brown shirts. It played a significant role in Adolf Hitler's rise to power in the 1920s and 1930s. Their primary purposes were providing protection for Nazi rallies and assemblies, disrupting the meetings of opposing parties, fighting against the paramilitary units of the opposing parties.
Just read the rest of the edited-out part of that video:
Quote:
We need to use technology to connect people to service. We’ll expand USA Freedom Corps to create online networks where American can browse opportunities to volunteer. You’ll be able to search by category, time commitment and skill sets. You’ll be able to rate service opportunities, build service networks, and create your own service pages to track your hours and activities.
This will empower more Americans to craft their own service agenda and make their own change from the bottom up.
Ah, you got me!
We stormed New Orleans neighborhoods and led thousands of volunteers in the clean up effort with an iron fist!
We blitzed the forest fires and hampered their freedom to burn.
We infiltrated Habitat for Humanity and Red Cross and aggressively assisted them in their philanthropic efforts.
Then we overran underfunded elementary schools and helped struggling students how to read and do math so we could later recruit them into our army!
Be vigilant there could be an Americorps volunteer in your neighborhood at this very moment.
I think the TEA Party destroyed his original plans for his civilian security army.
The TEA Party did nothing ...
H.R. 1388 The Give Act went through and received its (massive) funding ...
Quote:
The Edward M. Kennedy Serve America Act (formally the Generations Invigorating Volunteerism and Education (GIVE) Act) authorizes a dramatic funding increase for AmeriCorps and other volunteer programs, and the creation of new programs for seniors and veterans. It establishes a goal of expanding from 75,000 government-supported volunteers to 250,000, and would increase education funding and establish a summer volunteer program for students, paying $500 (which would be applied to college costs) to high-school and middle-school student who participate.
The Serve America Act would dramatically increase funding for AmeriCorps and other volunteer programs, including those for seniors and veterans. It also establishes a goal of expanding from 75,000 government-supported volunteers to 250,000. It also would increase education funding and establish a summer service program for students, paying $500 (which would be applied to college costs) to high-school and middle-school students who participate.
In its current form, the legislation does not include a mandate requiring service.
The legislation advanced through Congress as a substitute amendment to H.R.1138.
The only thing that didn't happen with it was the mandatory volunteerism. He could not get it passed with the word Mandatory, so they dropped it. However, it is a lucrative deal for government education to receive funding by offering as a course program Service Learning ... in essence mandatory is in, for everyone that goes through the education system K-college.
That ship came in, docked, and sailed back out; no one paid any attention to it.
btw ... did listen to your video, but saw original speech about 2 weeks (maybe 3) after I left a not so fun time as a VISTA (Volunteer in Service to America) in 2008. I heard him then, very plain. The experience I had, plus watching the Obama speech, (he gave in Colorado) I learned that I can not be brainwashed.
One would have to be me in order to understand the impact. I see things like no other ... obviously, and I like that.
Rather than go through (A Personal Encounter) their brainwash program I walked (quit), at exit paper signing, then I learned I could not ever get a job working for the government, city, state or federal. Funny, they did not mention that when I signed up and after what they put me through ... I don't want a government job.

Yes, and I had a really hard time in my research, because of everything like you've posted. And I kept thinking, well maybe I'm at fault. I stressed out, no doubt about it.
I told people that I was a VISTA because I had skills they called upon me to fill a position. They wanted me to believe I was some how damaged goods and I needed (them) the VISTA program.
You know who else tried that on me? My exhusband. I survived him and I survived VISTA.

He wanted something that had the word Mandate in it. He couldn't get it through The Give Act, so he went on to bigger & better things ...

I tried VISTA, and it's definitely harder than NCCC, and the impact is not as visible as the results are harder to quantify. I served 10 months full time and it while it had it's ups and downs it helped me pay for tech school which put me on the career path I'm on now as journeyman electrician. 2005-2006 I was 19 year old leading up to 20 people from all over the country in house gutting and mold remediation in New Orleans 16 hours a day for 1 month straight (just one example).
I also got to travel the United States which helped me dispel many misconceptions I had about the South and rural communities. I also met my wife in the program.
