What particularly kind of guys are they looking for to go to BUDs? And any other special ops unit. I hear that RECON marines are chosen for the job, they dont get to chose, so which guys get "chosed"?

On most construction jobs they are paid very well. They don't really pay taxes because employers encourage them to put down at least eight exemptions.

So, how much money is really taken out of their checks? They falsify every document they can, with help from companies who do taxes, sell real estate, do mortgages, and sell them cars.These are the people who clean your offices late at night and have access to every document that has someone's social security number on it. Your insurance companies, mortgage companies, banks, and schools records are all very vulnerable. The Mexicans teach their children values, but what are they? We have a whole generation of children believing that lying is a way of life. Women come here just to have their kids and go back home with the birth certificate that says her child was born in the U.S. All of those kids will grow up and make demands of the U.S. This is like a virus with no cure.

Our family is a mess since finding out a beloved family member embezzled a quarter million from their employer, due to a shopping addiction. Everybody loves this person, and we all know it was wrong, so Please, no rude comments.

The family is torn apart, the spouse was forced to file divorce to seperate themself from the crime, even though they knew nothing about it, and spouse is talking suicide already. The spouse & kids had their whole world come crashing down and they may lose everything. Our whole family is hurting. No charges have been filed yet, but I think we all may all be questioned, and the person who did it will most likely serve time. Has anyone out there experienced a similar thing, and what happened? How do you deal with it? Advice and comforting comments only, please do not be rude, this is serious.

There are between 12 million and 20 million illegal aliens in the United States. They are neither law-abiding nor citizens - indeed, their very first act in coming here was to violate the laws of our land.

Would many companies go under if these illegal aliens were deported? Hardly. Eighteen million unemployed U.S. citizens could and would do the jobs illegal aliens are doing, if paid a living wage. Teenagers and college students would again be able to find entry-level manual labor jobs.

Were Americans to be hired instead of illegals, companies would simply increase the price of goods by a small percentage to make up the difference in their cost of doing business. Contrary to what open-borders advocates would have you believe, corporate interests and business owners benefit from employing illegals, not our economy and certainly not the average citizen. The money companies save in payroll taxes, workers compensation, unemployment compensation and health care costs goes to their bottom line; the profits they realize line their pockets, not the consumers.

Some may say illegals pay their share of taxes. The IRS reported that illegal aliens in the U.S. paid $300 million in taxes last year. California alone is looking to the federal government (the taxpayers) to reimburse it $2.5 billion for the costs of illegal aliens. Hospitals and clinics are going bankrupt and closing all along the Texas, New Mexico, Arizona and California borders.

The bottom line is that illegal aliens are breaking our laws, depressing wages, are a drain on our economy and are destroying our infrastructure. One need only look at California to see the future in store for the rest of our country

It seems that any country that the US does not support is doomed to mediocrity. Can you name one country that has done well without the blessing of the US?

Mark Foley is the Republican leader of the Child Safety and Exploitation Caucus.

He groomed young boys for sexual encounters, feeling them out as teens and giving them rides in his BMW. He had sex with one of the 'groomed' boys later, and wrote letters to others with things such as "do i make you horney" and "id like to see that cute butt bouncing in the air".

I don't have the vaguest idea about this, but here goes...
I'm interested in becoming an FBI profiler, but I'm a South African citizen, who immigrated to Canada about two months ago (and I'll soon become a Canadian citizen).
What do I need in high school to study profiling, can I become a profiler, and is it worth it?
I'd really appreciate it if someone who knew a profiler personally could answer this, or a profiler would be even better, though I doubt that they go onto this site a lot.
Thank you.

David Kuo -- former high-ranking official in Bush's Office of Faith-Based Initiatives exposed his dissapointment that Repubs dont really care about Evangelical Christianity and tricked them into supporting them.

What does this say about Republican morality?

A big share of this multi-billion dollar revenues of narcotics are deposited in the Western banking system.

But an important point is that this “illicit” trade cannot survive unless the main actors involved in narcotics have "political friends in high places."

Revenues from the CIA sponsored Afghan drug trade are huge. The Afghan trade in opiates constitutes a large share of the worldwide annual turnover of narcotics. (Douglas Keh, Drug Money in a Changing World, Technical document No. 4, 1998, Vienna UNDCP, p. 4. See also United Nations Drug Control Program, Report of the International Narcotics Control Board for 1999, E/INCB/1999/1 United Nations, Vienna 1999, p. 49-51, and Richard Lapper, UN Fears Growth of Heroin Trade, Financial Times, 24 February 2000).

According to IMF estimates, global money laundering is between 590 billion and 1.5 trillion dollars a year, representing 2-5 percent of global GDP, a big share of global money laundering is linked to the trade in narcotics.

According to 2003 figures, drug trafficking constitutes "the third biggest global commodity in cash terms after oil and the arms trade." (The Independent, 29 February 2004).

Hence, the above figures show that most of the revenues linked to the global trade in narcotics are not appropriated by “terrorist” organisations and warlords, as claimed by the U.S. officials and the American President
