End of War,
If there was a draft, you would see these protesters back in the streets protesting the war.
I have wondered the same thing. I live in a college town, and protests took place every week.
Now, there is nothing.
I am thinking that I will go to that same intersection and stand with a sign reading.
War escalating... where are the protesters now?

Jouneyman,
Don't you agree? Hell, if these turds were being drafted for the war, they would flock into the streets to protest, just like they did under bush.
If the protests were justified under bush, which, I personally believe that they were, then why the hell, when we have 130,000 troops in Iraq, and sending, including those already sent by obama earlier, about 50,000-60,000 more troops to Afghanistan, are these protesters not rioting in the streets in anger?
Neither Iraq, nor, Afghanistan did a damn thing to us, so why the hell did the protests stop when Obama became president?
An Iraqi killed under Obama, is as dead as the one killed under Bush.
An American killed in Afghanistan since January 20th, is just as dead and one killed two years ago, when Bush was president.
What the hell is going on?

It is very much about undoing the damage Bush did to our standing in the world and making progress after eight slow years of retardation.

I have an idea for Obama's community service, if he doesn't do healthcare, cap and trade, and illegal reform, it would be a great service to the Community! Please Obama do none of the above, imagine how great that would be, one can only dream of this!

Every day when I get up-drive to work-work 8 hours-drive to college-study 3 hours-I've done my service.My taxes help bail out embezzelers and feed children of people who refuse to work.I refuse to succumb to the government and it's agenda.Covicts receive better health care than the average American.Charity begins at home.Only the strong survive.We are all playing the game Survivor right now-too bad it's not for 1 million $$$$.I'm playing for a roof over my head and food in the fridge.Too many play Russian Roulette daily in hopes of keeping a job.How can we delegate to other countries about how to live when we have failed??A Proud American.....questionable at best!

That is the kind of attitude that is destroyed the country.
Your greed and self interest betray you.
Humans have no purpose or higher calling then to serve and help their fellow human.
Currently Americans have been given a choice to donate their time and effort and have failed the test.
Hopefully Obama will have some real teeth in Serve.org and we can punish those who do not volunteer for one of the many worthy endeavors.
CHANGE is here!
Be a part of it or be dragged along.
Either way you will accept the moral righteousness of Obama.

<quoted text>Do you realize the lunacy in what you say??? You want to punish people who don't volunteer? Forcing citizens to volunteer makes it INVOLUNTARY!! Rather similar to children in 1940's Germany being forced to 'volunteer' to join the Hitler Youth! Enough with this cult of personality nonsense. You cannot legislate morality or charity. This nation ensures that those qualities are individually adhered to or not. You want to volunteer? God bless you, go forth and do so! Just don't expect others to do so because they may not want to! That's the U.S.A., my friend!

By your tone I see you do not accept Obama's call to service.
Why? Obama holds the higher moral ground. You must be one of the Fox news, tea bagger, racists. You need help. Evoking a god also betrays your untenable position. Like Obama said during the election. Those people who hold onto their beliefs and guns must be forced out of their comfort zones.
You will be moved.
One way or another you will do the right thing.
The greedy Republican capitalist dogma of the past has been rejected.
You will live for your fellow human and reject your corrupt ideology of self interest.
I would not be surprised if after a couple years under the new Health Care system that Service would be a contingent part of whether someone is allowed access.
That should change your tune.
CHANGE is here!
