I say: Mandatory? Didn't the [link\|http://caselaw.lp.findlaw.com/data/constitution/amendment13/\|13th amendment] outlaw that? I'm sure he didn't mean it. But only because I'm sure he doesn't really mean anything he says. Now that the Google cache has rescued this gem from the memory hole, and Gary McGath has done his part, I've added a bit of insurance by inserting it into Freenet at: /SSK%40jbf~W~x49RjZfyJwplqwurpNmg0PAgM/rescued/7//kerryslavery.html [link\|http://fnmarlowe.blogspot.com/2004/10/kerry-calls-for-slavery-for-high.html\|Comment at blogger.com] [link\|http://www.angelfire.com/ca3/marlowe/kerry.html#20041004\|Angelfire link] (turn off Javascript to avoid popups) ---------------------------------------------------------------- I will not rate. Lucy Ramirez please pick up the white courtesy phone. Kerry is a liar and he doesn't tolerate fights from others.

First, 75 hours of required community service is no worse than my US Govt teacher requiring me to watch a week of court room trials and write up my impressions. Its TWO WEEKS and we get people who might better understand their government and community. The other offer is equally AWESOME. You can get a 4 year tuition free ride in exchange for 2 years of community service WITHOUT THE THREAT OF COMBAT that you get if you take advantage of the GI program. Oh, and its OPTIONAL dude. This could be a ticket to a much better educated USA as people who couldn't afford college now get a chance to go. I don't see your problem with it except that a better educated country is probably a threat to modern fascist ideals as embodied in the current administration. Note, I decline to dignify that part with the label "Republican" until they return to the ideals of T Rooseveldt - pro environment, small government, fiscal responsibility, socially progressive. That was lovely cheese. --Wallace, The Wrong Trousers
