Civilian National Security Force



Loving your country shouldn't just mean watching fireworks on the 4th of July. Loving your country must mean accepting your responsibility to do your part to change it. - Barack Obama


And for those of you who like this country the way it is, skip the hope and proceed straight to change!

[W]e are going to grow our foreign service, open consulates that have been shuttered and double the size of the Peace Corps by 2011 to renew our diplomacy. We cannot to continue to rely only on our military in order to achieve the national security objectives that we have set. We have got to have a civilian national security force that is just as powerful, just as strong, just as well funded. - Barack Obama


So not to be accused of not doing our part, we decided to suggest a name for Obama's civilian national security force - The Cheka. Short for: Change. Hope. Energy. Kindness. Action.

We suggest President-Elect Obama form the Cheka on December 20, 2008. Time must not be wasted, Comrades!

AFTERNOON UPDATE:

Wait a minute! Mikhail and Karl discussed this security force over salads today, and determined the Civilian National Security Force already exists. The 80 million US gun owners are ready to repel whatever enemies Obama iimagines, and they are self-funded! Money saved - and hopefully returned to the tax payers in Obama refund checks!

Seeing this in a new light, we now understand Obama is pro-gun. If he sees a need for more civilian defense, then he must want the other 200 million citizens to buy guns! And his appeal to America's youth suggests we'll lower the legal age of firearm ownership and restart the old high-school shooting clubs. Maybe he'll organize an annual Father-Daughter Hunting event. And, Mikhail offered a great suggestion: Add a checkbox on the tax return for automatic membership with the NRA.
