Good Gawd greenschemes... reread my comment. The "National Security Force" I mentioned was the U.S. National Guard.

It seems that Mr. Bush, in his great wisdom, stripped OUR country of it's time honored "National Security Force" and it seems that Mr. Obama is thinking about putting them back where they belong.

Your "thugs, and paramilitary groups running around as vigilantees in our streets" comment is a good example of the fear card mentality I referred to earlier AND has absolutely nothing to do with any "National Security Force" proposed.

Does this mean my local chief of police is the same as Heinrich Müller?

As opposed to the gestapo like civilian security force called the conjoined National Guard and NYPD with their DHS embroidered patches? You mean those guys?

( kidding, I have family on the job- but seeing bunches cops clustered about Penn Station like a pack of teenagers, on a daily basis gives me no confidence should something disasterous break out )

We used to have a civilian security force- it was called the Militia.

"Mission Accomplished" - Military Spending cut / National Security Force in place WITHOUT THE NEED to scare the America public. Why is it that the right doesn't seem to think anything can be accomplished without playing the fear card.

It's totally constitutional,

So are many things that are not wanted, needed and infringe upon our liberties. I am all for cutting the military budget. I am not for cutting it simply to have a bunch of thugs, and paramilitary groups running around as vigilantees in our streets. Good Gawd people. I thought the far left valued freedoms above all. Now your willing to submit to a land full of paramilitary organizations.

The funny thing is, I think I know what Obama's aiming for, and we have something like it in Georgia. The "Georgia State Defense Force" is a civilian organization that has a sightly paramilitary organization, and their job is to supplement the National Guard when bad things happen. It's totally constitutional, and 24 other states and Puerto Rico have similar groups. In other words, Congressman Broun is getting all worked up over nothing. Boy, he really makes Georgia look good.

greenschemes said: "Democrats in Congress now are floating the idea of cutting U.S. military spending by 25 percent, or $150 billion a year, and according to a report, that could be used for the new "security force.""

After we pull out of Iraq:
a) Military Spending would be cut $120 billion / year ($10B x 12) AND
b) The National Guard would be home... doing the job they were hired to do.

I can't help but think there must be a lot of people in Georgia who don't appreciate a small-minded fool with a big mouth like Broun giving the impression their state is wearing a big tinfoil hat.

Referring to the "civilian national security force"

But now one report is proposing a possible solution for part of the equation: From where would the money for such an organization come? Democrats in Congress now are floating the idea of cutting U.S. military spending
by 25 percent, or $150 billion a year, and according to a report, that could be used for the new "security force."

Liberty is sacred. Do not take it from the hands of one inept politician and give it to another just because he has a (D) in front of his name.
