Obama Youth

Blue-State Bonanza for Americorps Funding

These numbers don't approach the perhaps hyperbolic remark by candidate Obama in July 2008 that "[w]e've got to have a civilian national security force that's just as powerful, just as strong, just as well-funded [as our military]." But a force of 250,000 isn't insignificant; our Marine Corps numbers 203,000.
Overall, states that voted for Obama in 2008 garnered 81% of Ted Kennedy Serve America funding, while red states were thrown a bone of the remaining 19%.

  1. Praying for a 'scorched Earth' November. There's enough on the table for an impeachment but not until both houses are HEAVILY GOP.

  3. The word is that the approval ratings are lower than 94. "Scorched Earth"? Maybe.
