What is this company, EG&G? They seem to be a secret company doing business with the U.S. government. Has anyone heard of them? Does anyone know what they do?
Don't be afraid to answer. I don't think they monitor this site.

The U.S. military acknowledged Wednesday that it considered bombing a group of more than 100 Taliban insurgents in southern Afghanistan but decided not to after determining they were on the grounds of a cemetery.


ARE YOU FREAKING KIDDING ME?
After all the tortured victims we found this week,and U.S. Soldiers killed,we won't go after these guys and could have killed one hundred in one blow?
What is wrong with this picture? Are you just as mad as I am for not getting rid of these bastards? Cemetary or not! Mostly insurgants were buried here too......Are we going to soft on these guys? I say kill them when we can before they kill us. What do you think?

What site(s) would I go to if I want to find information on labor laws in the US (specifically Texas) partaining to attendance and punctuality rules in the workplace? Does anyone know if there are governmental standards on "grace periods" as far as punctuality is concerned? Is it legal for an employer to punish an employee for being 30 seconds or 1 minute late for work?

Why do Americans today think it's fanatical to stand up and really work for your rights and for justice? It's very saddening to see my fellow Americans so careless Just because we acquired the rights, doesn't mean it wont and isn't changing.. It's so selfish, people are so "stressed" or "busy" that they just want to be involved with the events in their own lives solely, and think they're doign their part by watching the news and maybew letting out a sigh every once in awhile. Governments have a tendency to get corrupt if you let them, please tell me there still some non-self-centered compassionate Americans still out there?

Few of the usual indicators would seem to suggest it is true any longer:

1) Freedom and justice? Patriot Act and secret military prisons and trials
2) Virtuous and standing by principles? Abu Graib, Guantanamo
3) Enlightened leadership? GWB
4) Standard of living? No longer in top 5
5) Economic clout? Fast diminshing. xx trillion dollar debt, balance of trade deficit to China
6) Education? Math, science scores down. Americans can't find Mexico on the map
7) Corruption? Congressional influence peddaling scandals. Halliburton no-bid contracts, influence of corporations in political campaigns.

I want to be a true patriot! Give me a reason for optimism
