Joe --
This Saturday, Michelle and I are heading out to events as part of the National Day of Service.
It's a day to put politics aside, give back to our communities, and honor Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. by following his example. If we want to bring about change, it has to start with us, person by person and block by block.
So today I'm asking all Americans to join me, and make a commitment to serve their communities - this weekend, and throughout 2013.
I wanted service to be a big part of my inauguration because it's played a huge role in my life.
As a young community organizer starting out in Chicago, I learned that the best ideas, the ones that succeed, take hold at the grassroots. No one needs to wait on politicians or Washington: Change happens when individuals take responsibility for one another and their communities.
At the Day of Service in 2009, I visited with military families and wounded service members at the Walter Reed Medical Center and painted walls at a homeless shelter. Joe packed his toolbox and helped Habitat for Humanity hang drywall in new housing in D.C., while my girls, Michelle, and Dr. Jill Biden filled care packages for our troops overseas.
Be part of the inauguration -- make a long-term commitment to serving your community:
Thanks,
Barack

So what do you have have planned Mr.Albero???
All good stuff. Thank you Mr. President.
How long has it been since Obama went to the war zone and visited our troops stationed there?
Yes, lets follow his example and all betray what we preach, extort money under false pretense, lie, cheat on our wives with multiple partners just like MLK.
Go figure, this president looks up to the likes of this philanderer, as well as Bill Clinton!
Democrats are scum bags. Progressive democrats are even worse.
Serve your community by opposing this regime of criminals any way you can find. Target individuals that support this illegitimate poser of a president with all lawful means of intimidation. Do not trust them. They are enemies of OUR country.
"Change happens when individuals take responsibility for one another and their communities."
Jim Ireton Sez:
Change happens when the city government uses your tax money to go ahead and do what all the individuals and corporations should be doing because it's just too much trouble to enforce the law.
Am I the only one disturbed by the fact that the President chooses to use his first name here?
I can't understand how anyone can idolize Obama the way they do. It's a shame these people can't even think for themselves. Anyone with half a brain would have disassociated themselves with Obama and the Democrat party after the Obamaphone woman was exposed. There are some sick people in this world.
So what did he do for the day of service in 2010, 2011 and 2012? Sorry the people that did not support you have jobs they have to work. I doubt the ones that did vote for you are interested in working at all especially since they wont get paid.

How completely un-American.
That's what Benedict Arnold said 2:23.
Look what side of history he slammed down on.
" Target individuals that support this illegitimate poser of a president with all lawful means of intimidation."
I take it you are not signing up for the day of prayer.
This is a joke,right?
Thanx presbo, but Joe's got it. That long term committment, I mean. He's had it way longer than you. But you've shown you don't have "it" at all.

It's not his real name so what's the big deal?
Dear Barry, yes you should honor the example of Martin Luther King, who in fact was Republican. So, when are you switching the party affilation? This fact and others can be easily verified if you choose to, but based on your record, I can see THE FACTS DON'T MEAN MUCH.
