It's not even in the same universe. You KNOW this and yet you make insane polls that have absolutely no basis in reality.

It's one thing if you don't like the guy or his politics, that's different. But you're just straight up lying. And that's what makes this place so funny.

It is intended to draft civil service personnel, into armed service in a time of 'crisis', and be totally under executive orders. It's scraping the bottom of the barrel, for those who can hold a gun and follow orders, and may not have the qualms about pointing said weapons at US citizens that regular military might. It's not intended to create a Gestapo, just a herd of blind mice with trigger fingers. LMAO, activation of this 'force' as presently outlined, would be a farce. But outline it they did. The latter fact , alone, should concern folks. If it does not, well, join on up. Get a government job, stick your hand up and say 'take me take me'. May as well draw some solid lines
"Civilian Security Force" with Uniforms, Badges and Guns, Yet the thread is about Obamas Plans for a Civilian Army. We already have one but Sherrif Joe is in Command
I hope that my being a conservative isn't dependent on doing homage to Sherrif Joe or The Grand Limburger

Stick to the topic and stop with the personal insults.

If that is making it 'all' about you, well, OK, but the point holds for all who would just blindly follow and put such absolute faith in our Executive leadership. That is what my post was intended to impart, the wording confuse you some?

Let's face facts Jose - you know NOTHING about Arpaio or the Posse. So, why don't you stop your LIES about him? Or, do you enjoy lying?

That's it - isn't it? You like to lie.

Luckily, this country is well-armed enough to protect us from any such invading army that Obama might send in.
