In this case, you freaks are objecting to a call for a day of service on 9/11, in remembrance. What's the matter?

I completely understand that ...Mara, and TrueBlue,<br /><br />I completely understand that you have no clue what has anyone upset by this, because you rapidly switched to the straw man argument about a day of service.<br /><br />Let me be quite specific. No one objects to a day of service to this nation in memory of the terrible loss on 9/11/01. Are we clear on that? Because both of you seem to think what we're upset at is the idea of the day of service, and that's simply not true.<br /><br />So, either you're being intentionally obtuse, or you just don't get it.<br /><br />What we're angry about is being labeled as "Right Wing Terrorists" because we simply chose to see things differently than the exalted one does. I don't remember any proclamation by GWB regarding a day of service which referred to "Liberal Commies", or trashed the journalists [sic!] at CBS as "rumor mongering muck rakers". <br /><br />When the mouthpiece of the president of the United States refers to more than 45% of the voters in this country as "right wing terrorists" I'm upset.<br /><br />And you would be too, if you weren't so busy trying to cover up the tracks of propaganda spewing from the OFA website.<br /><br />Have fun being one of the animals for a while, because eventually, the pigs take over and the rest of the animals aren't quite as equal any more.<br /><br />Cheers,Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05572278612551536572noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8241445666161004335.post-42963069810063058372009-09-02T06:51:39.090-05:002009-09-02T06:51:39.090-05:00I don't recall being happy with Bush for spend...I don't recall being happy with Bush for spending government money on any of this...<br /><br />Not to mention that I don't remember any policy directives to government schools to turn students into healthcare lobbyists, or Census enumerators, or...Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8241445666161004335.post-52797703397227681562009-09-02T05:53:52.454-05:002009-09-02T05:53:52.454-05:00@Y4E,

The President honored the work of America's armies of compassion and reflected upon his first inaugural address, in which he “challenged all Americans to be citizens, not spectators…responsible citizens, building communities of service and a nation of character.”<br /><br />Last year it was OK <a href="http://www.prnewswire.com/cgi-bin/stories.pl?ACCT=104&STORY=/www/story/09-06-2007/0004657789" rel="nofollow">to volunteer</a> on September 11 as all the students in my daughter's New York City grade school class did but this year it's not?
