The GIVE Act (Brown Shirt Act) establishes the law, creates the funding and provides the logistics necessary to ultimately create the Obama Youth Corp

I'm bumping the original post back up to the top of the blog because of the importance of it.

We only need to review history as recently as World War II to see the striking similarities between Hitler's Brown Shirts and Obama's Civilian National Service Force.

Before the media begins to trash any of us that speak out against this piece of legislation, lets answer a couple of questions first.

1. Besides Obama, how many other Presidential Primary Candidates during this past election cycle stated during their campaign that the United States needed a Civilian National Security force, or anything even remotely close to it?

Answer is Zero.

2. Has any other President or Presidential Candidate wanted a Civilian National Security Force?

Answer is NO. The Peace Corps and others do not count because they have nothing to do with providing security.

Here's a list of the current Federal Government Agencies. Obama should explain during this time of economic crisis why we need ONE more!

This is a must read for everyone. HR 1388 as already passed the house. We must ensure that it doesn't pass the Senate. If it does pass, Obama will be off to the races with his National Security Force of Brown Shirts.

This video should give you the creeps when you watch it!

Generations Invigorating Volunteerism and Education (GIVE) Act.

Obama's vision of a domestic security force "just as strong, just as well funded as our military" ( and presumbly loyal to him personally) just got a lot closer.

The House of representatives has just passed HR 1388 otherwise known as the Generations Invigorating Volunteerism and Education (GIVE) Act. This reauthorizes through 2014 the National and Community Service Act of 1990 and the Domestic Volunteer Service Act of 1973, acts that originally, among other programs, funded the AmeriCorps and the National Senior Service Corps.

However, it not only reauthorizes the programs, but also includes "new programs and studies" and an allocation of $6 billion over the next five years, according to the Congressional Budget Office.

When you look at the language of the bill closely,it gets even more interesting.The bill specifically mentions possibilities if "all individuals in the United States were expected to perform national service or were required to perform a certain amount of national service."

If these requirements were made mandatory, the bill says it "would strengthen the social fabric of the Nation and overcome civic challenges by bringing together people from diverse economic, ethnic, and educational backgrounds."

And it mentions "The means to develop awareness of national service and volunteer opportunities at a young age by creating, expanding, and promoting service options for elementary and secondary school students, through service learning or other means, and by raising awareness of existing incentives."

Those groups of volunteers would according to the bill, be "grouped together as appropriate in campuses for operational, support, and boarding purposes. The Corps campus for a unit shall be in a facility or central location established as the operational headquarters and boarding place for the unit. … There shall be a superintendent for each camp."

Take a minute to think about the implications of all this, given the sort of person who's in the White House.

All of these things were hidden away within the 200 pages of legislation..and the bill itself was mainly billed as federal support for establishing the anniversary of the September 11 terrorist attacks on America as "a National Day of Service and Remembrance."

Some of the smarter boys like Duncan Hunter weren't fooled, but a number of others were..and the bill passed with an enthusiastic yes from every Democrat who's been on record as consistently voting against anything to do with our military or national security...Neil Abercrombie, John Conyers, Jim McDermott,George Miller, Jim Moran, Nancy Pelosi..and of course Keith Ellison.The whole crew was there, unfortunately joined by a number of people who I expected would know better.

Paranoid? Perhaps, but this bears close watching.Why spend six billion on this just now?

At this point, I don't trust the current occupant of the White House in the least. But you can't say I didn't give him a chance.
