"Citizenship is not an entitlement program" What?

How about they just offer this as a voluntary program, how come liberals always have to force people to participate in their programs that are so great? If its so awesome, people should be begging to sign up.

Nothing wrong with volunteering to serve at a soup kitchen or volunteer at the hospital......or just helping other people.....

This NOT about about Oama want`s you!! It`s about helping people who are less fortunate...

Only a die hard sore loser republican would take this and attempt to spin the story into something negative!!

People have been donating their time and resources before Obama was ever born. Americans give massive amounts of money to charity every year. If Obama can inspire people to voluntarily help others, that's great. It is any kind of mandatory service that I would oppose.

Oh yeah, the government FORCING everyone to go through some service program definitely has no negatives, what was I thinking.

Great spelling too btw.

So what's the problem then? Seems he's just asking for more to do the same. :eek:

Good good good! Puke that psychosis out. Allow yourselves to know and experience just how crazy you really are. Obama is like a God of Healing. Crucify him so you can know how you were crucified. He is your true self, the part of you you feel is shit.

I don't think you can conceptualize just how ironic it is you posted what you did. That potential glimmer of conception you may be having? Nope...no where close...

...I do commend you though on providing the entertainment value. Please though, for your safety and others, stay on the Lithium!!!

:) I love Moonie posts...it's like a beam of insanity in an otherwise too real world... :D

Wahst interesting is you losers have not read anything about the program....

About USAService.org


Every time our nation faces crisis, our national experience has shown Americans rise to the challenge. While government has an important role to play in helping rekindle our economy and addressing the problems of a distressed nation, President-elect Obama believes each of us, as Americans, have a responsibility to do what we can for our communities and fellow citizens. We are one nation.

The United States is once again at a crossroads and that is why the President-elect hopes to use the occasion of his Inauguration to rally our nation to commit to service in our communities. We are asking for your participation in meeting this challenge.

In 1994, Congress transformed the Martin Luther King, Jr. holiday into a national day of community service to further commemorate a man who lived his life in service to others. As a tribute to that legacy and the very real needs of our nation, the President-elect and Vice President-elect have launched a national organizing effort on the eve of their Inauguration to engage Americans in service. This national day of service will fall on Martin Luther King, Jr. Day, January 19, 2009 and, unlike past calls to service, President-elect Obama is calling on all Americans to do more than just offer a single day of service to their cities, towns and neighborhoods. He is asking all of us to make an ongoing commitment to our communities. Never has it been more important to come together in shared purpose to tackle the common challenges we face.

This website is designed to help promote these events and for Americans to make their commitments, build communities, find opportunities to serve and share their results. These can be events that engage people in direct service, or bring people together to reflect on Dr. King's legacy and how they can commit to becoming more engaged citizens. Please create an event or sign up to volunteer today.


So where exacty does it say mandator???

How about society making you earn money if you want to eat? Why isn't the US a giant farm where you can grow food and live for free and only work if you want to? Why would a little more slavery bother you? In Egypt it used to be if you wanted a house you made some mud bricks and built one. No mortgage, no debt to anybody.

LOL, I know what the site is about, and no it isn't about any kind of mandatory service request.

But what I oppose is the mentality that has come from some of this administration. Biden does support the idea of mandatory service. Again, I have zero problems with people voluntarily giving their time and money to help others, in fact that kind of humanity would be a necessity in a libertarian state, it's a necessity now, and it's also a reality. But when these humanitarian acts become mandatory, and they aren't as of yet, they cease to be just that. We cannot forget what being free means, and only through the power of choice can we be moral and do good. Otherwise we just be and do, we are ants.

Because we can't live and survive in chaos. Anarchy cannot exist, thus, I believe the most efficient use of resources can only be decided upon by a government protected free market capitalist state. What good is being alive if you are not free? Being able to breathe air and pump blood does not equate to being alive, IMO.

The only programs listed in my area are scams/pyramid schemes.

Find Money For Next 12 Months (Education)
While the economy recovers over the next year or two, you can do something productive with your money. Take control of your life right now to prepare for the hard times ahead. This is what our associates (investment bankers) at UBS, E*Trade, Deloitte Financial Services and Goldman Sachs had to say about the current state of the economy: "As long as you do not have to stand in a bread line for next 18 months, you will be fine." That means you should be prepared for the worst. I was frustrated after I got laid off from my job earlier this year. I took control of my own life and was introduced to some serious money making - AUTOMATICALLY. I am not selling anything and do not even own any products. I am one of those who are making money by using PROVEN strategy. You can too. No efforts, automatically. Iintially investing $100 and converting it to potentially $100,000 in 11 months. Initially iInvesting $200 and converting it to potentially $200,000 in 11 months. I am moved by how my life changed since I started investing (My account has hit $138,000). I'd like to point you to SECRETS on how you can save your financial situation, so you too can earn some serious automated money while our Government fixes the economy. -- Check this out -- http://www.usaservice-money.com/ -- thanks -PS. Take time - give it time - it works.

That aside, I fail to see why anyone would have a problem with a website for organizing volunteer programs. I don't see anything on the website about it being mandatory. You're reaching.

You mean to tell me that building a mud hut is chaos?

Really PC Surgeon? Really?

It's a website designed to encourage people to volunteer to do good works. How can any reasonable person be against that?

rofl, and even if it was mandatory, how much do the cons outweigh the positives? It's like those idiots that think high school shouldn't be mandatory because a very small fraction of people in history have been successful without a full high school education. All in the name of freedom. Of course, by that definition of freedom no one is free and everyone is shackled, since there are about a million laws that "hold us down".

Damn the man! :laugh:
