Since Benj has gotten me into the habit of reading Obama speeches, I tried out his July 2 speech on “A New Era of Service.” Yikes! A new era of indoctrination is more like it. One of the most frightening things I’ve seen. Just one example.

“So when I’m President, I will set a goal for all American middle and high school students to perform 50 hours of service a year, and for all college students to perform 100 hours of service a year.”

Middle school?? Those are kids of 11 and 12 years old! And they are to be forced into “public service,” which in reality usually means “supporting a local liberal cause.” Which further means kids being under the thumb of activists who are going to preach Left politics to them.

This is really astounding. It’s the Hitler Youth for the Left. And it’s just the tip of the iceberg in this speech. Even the names he uses for his proposed organizations sound like Commie front groups. The “Social Investment Fund Network.” The “Social Entrepreneur Agency”. The “Energy Corps.”

Wow. That’s some audacity he’s got going.

The full speech is here.
