Uranium is not the only lie in Junior's state of the Union Speech. What about the lie where he said he would expand the Ameri-corps to help our domestic needy.<font color=brown>
Our country also needs citizens working to rebuild our communities. We need mentors to love children, especially children whose parents are in prison. And we need more talented teachers in troubled schools. USA Freedom Corps will expand and improve the good efforts of AmeriCorps and Senior Corps to recruit more than 200,000 new volunteers.</font>

Of course with Junior the speech and reality are far apart.
<font color=purple>Local directors of AmeriCorps, the community service program President Bush has repeatedly praised and promised to expand, said yesterday they have been notified of what they called "devastating" cutbacks in their allocation of volunteers for the coming year.
