that can only mean one thing.

Mr. Obama is headed to Aggieland. Yippee skippee.

WASHINGTON, D.C. - On Friday, October 16th, President Barack Obama will hold a Presidential Forum on community service hosted by former President George H.W. Bush and the Points of Light Institute at the George Bush Presidential Library Center on the campus of Texas A&M University. The event builds upon President Obama's "United We Serve" call to service challenging all Americans to help lay a new foundation for growth in this country by engaging in sustained, meaningful community service. It will also celebrate the contributions of more than 4,500 Daily Point of Light award winners and honor President Bush's legacy of service and civic engagement.

The Daily Point of Light Award - created by President Bush in 1989 - honors individuals and volunteer groups around the country who are helping to meet critical needs in their communities and creating change every day and has a bi-partisan presidential legacy over the past two decades.

President Obama's United We Serve call to service began on June 22nd and runs through the National Day of Service and Remembrance on September 11th. Service projects marking the eight year anniversary of 9/11 will take place today in all 50 states, and will include over a dozen Cabinet Secretaries and high ranking government officials. Projects range from food drives and home repairs to neighborhood cleanups and disaster preparation activities.

The National Day of Service and Remembrance was developed by 9/11 families and established into law by the Edward M. Kennedy Serve America Act, which President Obama signed in April. The most sweeping overhaul and expansion of national service programs in 18 years, the Serve America Act will triple the size of AmeriCorps and strengthen service opportunities for Americans at all stages of their lives.

Apparently, the protesting is scheduled to begin at noon and run for the rest of the day. Several different groups have organized and are combining their efforts. (over 1000 people was reported as of an hour ago). Of course, their opposition will be there too.

So if a Dem had called GW a liar during one of his scary ( and untrue) Iraq-WMD lead up speeches, you would have thought the same about that as you do about J.Wilson?

The dems called him everything in the book every chance they got. And if he lied then so did Hillary, Bill, and just about other dem when it was a positive politically for them. But he did lie, illegals will get health care if this socialist agenda passes.

Tax dollars/insurance premiums

We're still paying for their health care

But our ins. premiums are not paying for anyone else's health care but our own.

We are paying because an emergency room can't turn away anyone.

They did, up until we found out there wasn't any.

I bet you can't find me any dissent in the MSM leading up to the war and during major combat operations. The Bush administration got a rubber stamp of approval from the press (and Congress, and the American people) from the beginning, and any dissenters were muzzled, marginalized, and blasted with terms of "traitor" and "unpatriotic" and "not supporting the troops" (as if supporting the war is a prerequisite for supporting the troops).

I mean, seriously, how soon we forget. It was only after the Iraq war ended it's theatrical course in May 2003 with Saddam still at large and WMD's nowhere to be found did the real questions and second-guessing begin, and rightfully so.
