   Oh, I get it –it’s the old mao style volunteering–you can volunteer to work or volunteer for the firing squad.

   What’s the big deal here? All the authoritarian regimes favored by liberals have compulsary volunteerism: Stalin, Mao, Castro…and don’t forget Pol Pot. Everybody is merely “giving back” to their community.

   Thank goodness we are getting ready to be lead by “Our Dear Community Leader”. I can’t wait to voluntarily mount his portrait on my living room wall as required by government edict.

   I’m also ready to join my neighborhood purity of thought brigade – you know, its for the kids.

   My God! I had no idea! I’m going to send that link to everyone I know who has kids. The only thing left off the list is: “At the end of every week, please turn in your list of suspected Republican dissidents to your group chairman/chairwoman, who can be identified by his/her brown shirt.”

   And for another 6 hours in the rice fields, you get the priviledge of using convention restrooms.

    Weed out, indeed. Is this weed-out technique the kind of thing that is taught at Community Organizer school? If it works, then that crowd will be the truest of true believers, and they’ll make the Olympics opening ceremony look like a salute to individualism.

    (points finger) Haw haw!

    The ABC article goes on to say that the Obama campaign insists that those who have to volunteer for tickets chose the option to do so in order to get “all-star seating” at Invesco Field.

    If you choose not to volunteer, you retain your place in line for what is called a “community credential,” according to the campaign.

    Sounds like another way of saying “waiting list.”

    In other words, to obtain a better view of the Savior’s countenance, disciples must spread the Good News of Him beforehand.

    He would see that these goals are met by, among other things, attaching strings to federal education dollars. If you don’t make the kids report for duty, he’s essentially telling schools and college kids, you’ll lose money you can’t afford to lose. In short, he’ll make service compulsory by merely compelling schools to make it compulsory.

    Actually, this would be one of the best things that could happen – keep our kids out of the leftist re-education camps known as “public schools”

    Ok, why didn’t I get a copy of the memo that says republicans don’t have to work for a living!?

    Obviously, because all of us nasty Republicans are RICH. Didn’t you know that?

    “Democrats work for a living…

    This must be sarcasm… there’s no other explanation.

    Brushman… your client is is denial. Like most libs we encounter. Give them the facts and they grasping for straws and calling what you’re saying.. a “hoax”

    But this whole issue of making tickets conditional on spending time in an Obama Work Kamp seems sort of shaky to me. Maybe it’s technically legal, but something about it doesn’t seem right, as far as political contributions go.

    The Obama campaign said that as a show of “crossing the aisle” they would be giving tickets to registered Republicans as well as Democrats. I sign up for one of those tickets but now am being asked to volunteer! Like I’m going to help! Maybe I should have said yes and sabotaged from within…

    Just found out that I didn’t get a ticket and am on the wait list. Not holding my breath…
