The creation of the Obama SS.


He wants to create "a civilian National Security Force" to augment the military?

We already have a Peace Corps and Vista. We already have police and fire departments.

So, unless he plans on organizing a giant, nationwide, "neighborhood watch," this is a pretty bizarre statement.

My best guess: he's talking in code for setting up a program of "national service" requirements where we're all forced, like college freshmen during orientation week, to donate our services to some government determined "cause."

A prediction: Obama will bring back the draft and add to it the idea that you can avoid military service by participating in the "civilian national security" force.


Don't we already have the FBI, ATF, and DEA to do all that?

It tends to put you immediately at a disadvantage and IMO is a sign of true weakness.
