comparing this to "nazi germany" or any form of government is ridiculous. obama wouldn't be "creating" any form of civilian military...it'd be expanding the civilian service programs that we already have OVER 600. http://www.cns.gov/

AMERICORPS (created under CLINTON)

PEACECORPS

this is just another weak example of conservative groups to strike fear into the american people. it's funny...we have a number of discussions on here about whether bush was/is a good or bad president. conservatives defend bush by saying that we suffered 9/11, hurricane katrina, hurricane ike, war on terror, etc. americorps, and other civil service groups are STILL in lousiana trying to put the pieces together. aren't conservatives the ones who are "anti-government?" this is just stupid. maybe conservatives would be happy if the U.S. just turned into a nation of tribes, and no government.
