Politics & Government - 10 November 2006

I served in the US Army for 2 years. I didn't serve my full term because I got pregnant and I didn't want are child to have both parents in the military and deployed. even if my discharge paperwork is for "over than honorable' and I still a veteran?
I know that when I asked this question some time back, I pissed someone off. I'm just wondering!

This is why I do not believe people who have claimed alien abduction incidents and sightings. Those U.F.O.s up in the sky are probably planes and top-secret aeronautical engineering miracles, as in the military has top-secret aircraft that they are testing. The whole Area 51 concept is a good smokescreen for what is really going on. They want you to believe that stuff, so that you won't go looking for the truth about scientific and medical testing that is going on behind the scenes.

When druggies claim that they have seen something, I do not pay attention to it.

or vice versa? I'm not contemplating career choises, just curious. In the book, The Plot Against America, someone joins the Canadian army when we (the U.S.) are not in WWII and Canada is.

Help! My ex plays games with visitation like no call no show, visiting abt one time monthly and then calls making demands and posturing like i am keeping him from his kids. He emailed and told me he would not be here tonight but would be by tomorrow at 8. i replied that we will be at church at 8pm, and he can either come after we get home - 9pm, or sunday am. he called abt 6am yelling at me. I told him that if he can not be polite i would hang up on him and did. later he called back and left a msg that he expected me not to be home for visit time - 6pm, and that he was bringing "a police escort" to have me arrested for interferance with his "rights!" this man is nuts! I will be back at the lawyer soon, but any advice? I can not afford this!

I spent 30 years in the US Marines and wrote this when I came home from Vietnam. to a place where no more internal battles are fought and no more sadness felt for those they once knew and lost. Places no one will ever remember, that is, no one but those who were there. Battles, large and small, in war and within ones-self, that do not rate a mention in history but definitely helped write it. Sounds of long ago but were only yesterday this morning. Survivors A time of remembrance for me... of young faces I once knew a lifetime ago who are no longer here and of a lot that are. Faces of my beloved family who fought in WW2 and Korea who have crossed over guilt but deep inside.... glad it wasn't me. Reading citations and asking myself," Did I really do that"? Looking for lost loves and lost youth knowing that you will find neither. Memories, some good...some bad. Touching the scars on my body from shrapnel and on my chest from a 7.62. Looking at that rifle that I brought home with me that put that bullet there and remembering the young Vietnamese that once held it that I killed almost at the same time as he shot me. Looking into a mirror and then at a picture on a wall and wondering where did that kid disappear to? Still feeling the pride that I felt then and feeling pride in those who wear, or have worn, the uniform of today ( Do you ever really take it off?) Looking at my sons face, my daughters faces, my grandchildren's faces, and whispering a prayer that they will never forget me or others like me who sacrificed so much so other people may seek freedom and have rights and when necessary, fight for this country and for their rights that so many of its citizens take for granted. Looking at the colors and feeling the pride for I know the price many youth have paid to keep it flying. Understanding, that one more year has passed and that I am closer to paying my dues to the one I cheated out of them three+ times. Not really caring about life or death personally anymore for after what I went through, saw, did, etc. what is really left but the waiting.... just like then. Yes, today I especially remember. Thanks for serving. Welcome home. God bless and see you in Fiddler's Green. With Veterans day tomorrow I would like to know what you think and how you feel. Thanks

meaning NO terrorists haven in Iraq, would the American people be happy with that or would they be upset that their own military didn't do it?

What is it that makes you think the news media is biased, in either direction? Do you think there is any alternative explanation for such bias, or evidence that the media may be biased to the other side?

Generalized answers are acceptable, but specific evidence and examples are preferred.

A decorated marine veteran John Murtha is one of the few elected leaders to stand up and try provide needed and missing oversight on a power mad white house and so he way more deserving than the rest of of those spineless cowards who allowed lil bushy and his already drank the kool-aid thuggies to whittle away at the US Constitution to become majority leader in the House.

In 2005 Rep. John Murtha, D-Pa., discusses the Iraq war at Capitol Hill news conferences.
Last November, Murtha began calling for the withdrawal of U.S. troops in Iraq. Murtha was also the first congressman to speak out on the allegations of a massacre by U.S. troops in the city Haditha.

She is employed full-time but lives with us for practically free. She is a spender, not a saver. She has no life insurance or savings for retirement. She has a whopper of a credit card balance going. I am wondering about if she were to pass away with this debt, who is responsible for paying that off? Does the credit card companies just write it off?

Here's the deal, I had sex with this girl, it was a one night stand and she was on pill, I used condom, whatever.

She says she's pregnant, but not sure, I don't want the kid or her, and I told her to abort. Can I take her to court and make her abort, or can I sign away all rights to the child and kick them out of my life?

Due to recent world events, the world seems to be on a slippery slope downhill. Many people believe that this election was a good omen, but in all actuallity it very well means bad things for the country of Mexico. The winners of this recent election believe that one must allow all immigrants in without questions. While this may seem reasonable to insane people, Article 4 Section 2 under the constitution writes, "The Citizens of each State shall be entitled to all Privileges and Immunities of Citizens in the several States." http://superstringtheory.com/math/index.html
Because of this, my new amendment that I propose to the constitution would involve banning everyone, and anyone who does not agree with the insanity that I spew. Any suggestions?
