My heartfelt apology to the president. It will be a very ugly and even more disrespectful. Service? Repubs don't believe in helping one another.

Might be time to give more money to the DNC. It makes me feel better.

These protesters don't even think 41 is a Republican. Ahh, the GOP in its populist death throes.

look, i watched the speech and to say this is not a political event is skirting around the issue. this was a promotion of the serve america act. im all for volunteerism, but why does the money have to go to washington so that the bureaucRATS can take a cut and then, and only then, distribute it to philanthropic causes. you don't see that they have created a middle man where there ought not to be one?? the partisanship is blinding. people once critical of the government when 43 was in are now gleeful followers of 44. ignoring all the credible fears of government they presented appropriately against the past administration. the serve america act was originally presented with language that made it a mandatory service. it was taken out before it was passed, but whats to say a government loving republican doesnt step in make it mandatory? making you "volunteer" in abstinence education for young children or maybe a grand compulsory stint in the army would be a good way to serve. would you, only then, see that this may not be the best direction to go in?? you dont need government to volunteer and you can better judge where your time and money goes.
