If this doesn’t scare the hell out of every American that hears this guy, I really don’t know what will. From Interview: In the interview, Emanuel was questioned whether participants in the proposed force would live in barracks. “Somewhere between the age of 18 to 25 you will do three months of training. You can do it at some point in your college time,” he said. “There can be nothing wrong with all Americans having a joint, similar experience of what we call civil defense training or civil service.” Emanuel said the planned requiring service “will give people a sense of what it means to be an American.” He said, of course, the plan at that point was flexible. “We propose three months [but] at the end of the day [if] someone says it should be four … I’m not going sit here and hold up [plans],” Emanuel said. When the reporter questioned the commitment, Emanuel responded, “Guess what. We have a lot more challenges. We are going to need a lot to do it. If you’re worried about are you going to have to do 50 jumping jacks the answer is yes.” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KnightofChrist Posted November 14, 2008 Author Share Posted November 14, 2008 There is another thread that quotes Obama's site where yes it is stated that it would be a requirement. But Rahm Emanuel says "“Somewhere between the age of 18 to 25 [b]you [u]will[/u][/b] do three months of training. You can do it at some point in your college time,” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same difference. I want to see how this gets implemented without sparking a civil war or riots that make the 1960s look like a children's picnic...
