I have been told to sign in at base close to home and not return to my overseas duty assignment because i have no one to take care of my 2 year old daughter. If i dont come back what can happen to me? Im not trying to escape service, i just dont have anyone to take care of my daughter and i just cant abandon her. My mother in law plans on returning my daughter to me because she doesnt want to take care of her. She agreed to return my daughter when i go on leave. Can i be allowed to stay on that post close to home? Will i be chaptered for family care plan? What happens?

between 1996 to Sept. 30, 2005, according to internal Homeland Security intelligence reports."

http://www.latimes.com/news/nationworld/nation/la-na-border12sep12,1,4892497.story?coll=la-headlines-nation

"Cooperation and confrontation are described between U.S. border agents and Mexican military or police, as when a Texas border agent on a river rescue mission radioed colleagues to say Mexican soldiers had trained their rifles in his direction. Also depicted are Mexican helicopters entering deep into U.S. territory and drug smugglers seemingly working under the escort of Mexican military boats."

I had seen this before but never in mainstream press, so I hadn't posted about it. Despite 'oh its hard to say where the border is' excuses, I think this is outrageous.

What do you think?

due to a handful of websites who have obviously done their homework, is it correct to assume that all the other websites that have debunked these sites as total lies are also part of the government conspiracy?

I often get people to tell me to post links for things I say. What kind of proof is being asked of the websites? Or do the conspiracy crowds blindly believe information on any anti-Bush site they see.

i think these people like to see under the headlines terrorist attack or just being called terrorist theyre probably proud to be called that so why dont we as americans change that and play some mind games and just call them what they are, cowardist. The media can never use the term terrorist, they can say "cowardist attack" or "an act of cowardism" terror just brings up bad thoughts so lets use a word that will really describe them and use coward from now on, so make it happen and write your senator or counsilman about this

I heard that an extremist right wing Flemish party has the majority of the Flemish votes. I also heard that because of this gay people can't vote and have to pay more taxes?? Could this be true? If it is:
Who are they to look down on us and our republican president when gay people can't even vote?

If we did to others what psychiatry does to many people it would be considered assault I think? Since there is no valid reliable scientific medical evidence to call it a disease, there is no right to use mental illness to restrain a person or force your will on them in that way. So I want to know what assault is and what psychiatric assualt would be? If you could prove this who would you charge for it and how?

Short supply + high demand = high prices.
Large supply + low demand = low prices.

I know that most of you who were complaining about the high price of gas are liberal democrats who "grad-ee-eated" from a government sanctioned child abuse indoctrination center (public school). I also know that my 7 yr. old grandson probably understands more about economics than you do. Anyway, ARE YOU BEGINNING TO UNDERSTAND BASIC ECONOMICS 101?

My Husband was over paid twice this month and now his employer is taking it out of his next paychek. Now when I was back in school, my ecom teacher told us that a check is a contract that both parties agree on if both people sign it. Is that true? Can they really take the money out from his next check?
