What the Hell!!!!
Volunteers fanned out across the Birmingham area and Alabama Saturday to pump up enthusiasm for President Barack Obama's budget proposal in much the same way they did to win over voters during the presidential campaign.
About 30 volunteers in Birmingham canvassed shopping areas and other high-traffic locations to talk about the need for health care reform, an education overhaul and environmentally friendly energy development.
"If we don't change these three things in the next 10 to 15 years, America is over as we know it," Chris DeHaven, told the group of volunteers before they went their separate ways
Obama's plan faces criticism from Republicans and others who say it's too expensive. The nonpartisan Congressional Budget Office released a report Friday saying Obama's agenda would cause huge budget deficits, forcing the country to borrow $9.3 trillion in the next decade.
Those who gathered at Kelly Ingram Park in downtown Birmingham were urged to enlist others who share Obama's vision and to stay away from trying to convert naysayers.
"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." ..................
I guess this occurs when the new mandatory Obama Corp happens
Let us recall from the First Lady
"Barack Obama will require you to work," she says. "He is going to demand that you shed your cynicism. That you put down your divisions. That you come out of your isolation...Barack will never allow you to go back to your lives as usual, uninvolved, uninformed."
"We're not looking for a fight. That will come later, when we have an army."
ReplyDeleteOh really?
I wonder how many of these chair-polishing desk commandos have ever been in a fight? Wonder how many have ever fired a firearm? And supersoakers don't count!
Exactly this is all getting surreal
