Why do americans follow this political correctness so blindly? We all watch what we say, and of course there are exceptions to some people who are allowed to speak thier minds. Does anyone know the origin of political correctness? it came from a theory of hitlers! so why do we follow this code, and who says what is politically correct or not? I think we need to speak our minds, and just get over the fact that some people wil just simply hate you, no matter if they know you or not!

Most of my life I've never thought I would ever join the military. Then about 2 months ago I had a paradigm shift, and now I think there's a good chance I'll do it. However, I know how dangorous impulsive decisions can be, so I want to make sure I really want to do this. My Army recruiter said 2 months is a long time to be thinking about the military, but I think its ridiculously short. He also reccommended I join this summer, but I think thats crazy. At the very least, I'll wait until I talk to all branches of the military, and then I'll have some serious discussions with my uncle and grandfather (both veterans). After that, how long should I wait before making my decision?

Your thoughts?
AP) Fourteen European nations colluded with U.S. intelligence in a "spider's web" of secret flights and detention centers that violated international human rights law, the head of an investigation into alleged CIA clandestine prisons said Wednesday.

Swiss Senator Dick Marty said the nations aided the movement of 17 detainees who said they had been abducted by U.S. agents and secretly transferred to detention centers around the world.

Some said they were transferred to the U.S. detention center at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, and others to alleged secret facilities in countries including Poland, Romania, Egypt and Jordan. Some said they were mistreated or tortured.

"I have chosen to adopt the metaphor of a global spider's web, a web that has been spun out incrementally over several years using tactics and techniques that had to be developed in response to new threats of war," Marty said.

Marty provided no direct evidence but charged that most European government

The Town Road has washed out my driveway and exposed the cement pillars to the side door deck. When I go into the driveway the car muffler hits. My Mother-In-Law broke her foot getting off the bottom step of the deck into the ravine caused by the water running off the Town Road.They have been putting gravel down from the Rd. to the steps but it keeps washing into the back yard. When the house was built it was up to grade. They said we need to get it up to grade again, but it will only wash out again, due to the Town Rd. They do not want to fix it. Is the Town responsible to fix this problem?

Anne Coulter says
Women should not be allowed to vote...
But SHE does!

And then the dumb blonde can't even figure out
WHICH precinct is hers!

A poll worker reported to his supervisors that he saw Coulter try to vote in the precinct closest to her Palm Beach home. But when she was told the address on her voter's registration was elsewhere, Coulter ran out instead of correcting it and ended up voting in a precinct that wasn't hers. Knowingly voting in the wrong precinct in Florida is a felony.

Coulter Accused Of Voter Felony.
Hires Bush's Florida Recount Lawyer For Defense...

And he's a *gasp* MEXICAN...

Oh cupcake...how low are you willing to go!

From what, exactly? Why is gay marriage a threat? I'd think the 50% divorce rate would be a bigger concern, if 'protecting' marriage was what all the fuss was about. The Constitution isn't there to diminish rights or further political ambitions.

My wife as I stated has almost perfect credit with a 740 credit score BUT she doesnt make the money. I however filed for bankruptcy a chapter 13 1 year ago and it has not been discharged yet. What are the chances of us obtaining a loan either before my debts or discharged or shortly after?
Or do you think it would be possible for my wife to obtain a loan on her own legally in some kind of no income stated program?
Thank you and your answers are very much appreciated.

"An Inconvient Truth" is a movie where former Vice President Al Gore explains why the world must take steps to counter Global Warming. Another documentary directed by Chris Paine called "Who Killed the Electric Car?" (coming to theatres June 30) also explains the issue of Global warming and may point out how Gore's withdrawl from politics allowed the Bush Adminstration, Big Oil, Big Auto, and the status quo to discard policies such as the Clinton Adminstration's Partnership for a New Generation of Vehicles (PNGV) in favor of gas guzzling SUVs. My question is, if Al Gore is so concerned about the environment, why did he quit supporting campaigns to make sure that the Bush Adminstration upheld environmental policies such as PNGV? Secondly, where are our electric cars? Finally the big question: Why can we not find ANY parts to build our own electric generators and electric motors not even for a simple high school science experiment?

It is taking place at:

http://groups.yahoo.com/group/monitor_presidents/

The two question are:

1) Should Federal Judges monitor the Presidents, to insure a President does not violate the Constitution again?

2) Should all the Presidents official communications be recorded by government technicians, so Congress can listen to these recordings so they can scientifically* investigate the actions of the President?

Your participation is highly appreciated, and will help determine the true value of these policy proposals.

A real symposium on these two questions is scheduled to be held at Brooklyn College in October, 2006.

According to the news it looks as if the Marines will be charged sometime in the next few weeks. The news states the Marines can be put to death but I don't believe Mr Bush will allow that. Do all of you know the real problem here in this country? Most of the world dislikes what the USA is doing in Iraq. And the Marines killing innocent children sure doesn't help us. Thanks a lot Marines!!
