The Obama Youth, Student, and Senior Corps
Well, Obama is at it again in spreading his Saul Alinsky style organizing. First his former campaign organizers were at it this weekend - sent out from the political operatives to shill for support for Obama's plans for the budget, education, universal healthcare, and energy policy.
I ran into one of them this weekend - let's just say that she and I are NOT going to be best buds because I kept asking questions that she couldn't answer - then she got mad ("...get out of my face!").
Here is my quick interview with Elaine Kellerman (sp?) - she was not too happy to debate actual numbers.

From this conservative's view, with Obama's penchant for wanting to continue to campaign instead of govern, this is just was not unexpected. That said, I have been suspicious that these 13 million emails were going to be turned into other purposes. Sounds like I had a reason for thinking such:
And now just look at what some of the Organising for America cadres were saying on the streets of Birmingham, Alabama:
‘We're looking for supporters,’ said DeHaven of Hoover, one of the event's organizers. ‘We're not looking for a fight. That will come later, when we have an army.’
Two months in – and it’s all there, folks, for those with eyes to see.
Yup, that's what Obama's organizers do - fight for stuff for those they believe the rest of us are screwing them out of.
So, who fights for us? The only people who are willing to fight for us are us (go to a Tea Party - GET INVOLVED!).
Michelle has a lot more on the official Obama campaign staff turning into the Corp" (my definition) called the GIVE / SERVE Act; heck, a lot do and I just don't have the time right now to do such.
With his racheting back of the tax deductions for charitable deductions, with the GIVE / SERVE act that professionalizes volunteer works (and, I believe, provides WAY to many possibilities for bad things to happen includind indoctrination as it will be the Liberals that will move into this space), Obama is doing the one thing he really wants to have happen:
Government will be responsible for everything.
After all, volunteers actions will be directed by the government, funded by the government, and controlled by the government. I expect that real volunteerism will diminish, and why not? The Government's doing it!
