Politics & Government - 10 January 2007

Hi,My name is Chris, and i am currently a senior in college. I have recently met with an Army recruiter, concerning a position in the US Army as a officer. He told me with my college degree, i would most likely be qualified to attend the OCS in Georgia.
Please help me out in these fields.

1. What is the required college GPA to be accepted into Army OCS.

2. How hard is it to get a 110 GT score on the ASVAB.

3. When can i bring my wife with me? after BTC, OTC etc..

4. Will I (if i become an officer) most likely end up in Iraq? and if so, for how long?

5. Does officer have better chance of picking their dream sheet -AKA- Based station?

I would greatly appreciate any help regarding the above issues..Thank you,Chris

My history teacher told us Bush is supposed to give some sort of a speech tonight and she said we could watch it for extra credit. I definitely need extra credit in that class, but I don't know what time it starts. Does anyone know? (EST) Thanks!!!

To call Americans that. Please folks, is that your only defense is to get nasty and say that. Isn't illegal immigration about all races, so please stop associating only hispanics to it. When you associate isn't that showing that you are the one being racist and racially profiling ?

Maybe Bush should step down as president and join the Blue Collar Comedy Tour instead?

I had someone to call in personal time for me (I was unable to call) I later called in and requested vacation time which was approved (I was already on vacation the previous day). Note I did have ample sick and vacation time. This is a common practice. I did go to the emergency room and followed up with primary care doctor and a specialist. Did a Breech of Trust occur? What are options if terminated? (Bank Employee, Excellent Attendance, Excellent Reviews, over 20 yrs Employment.

So, you are at war in Afghanistan, Iraq and Somalia. You sure would be better off if you had more allies to help you. Since Israel is your closest ally, why dont they help you and send some troops to Iraq. After all, America is actually protecting Israel and it is doing a huge favor to Israel by fighting Islamist terrorists in the middle east, so why cant Israel help out and send some of their troops to Iraq?Dont tell me that they are already fighting terrorists in Palestine or Lebanon? Israel is the most powerful nuclear country after USA ofcourse. So at least 10 thousands soldiers shouldnt be a problem for them?And it could help alot. Or wait, maybe Israel considers American soldiers their dogs or servants - better they die than us?

So Americans what do you think, should Israel help you out with your war on terrorism or what?

arresting illegal immigrants who were violating traffic laws, now being sued by ACLU for violation of their sworn duties as police officers. They handed the illegals over to the ICE folks. That's illegal?
Why were the two border patrol guys who apparently did something wrong sent to jail in one case for 20 Year! What in the world could they have done, out side of their jobs, to get a sentence of 20 years? Your thoughts incite here?

Mexicans that have been here for 2 years or better, speak,read & write English, have no criminal record (here or there), have steady employment should be given amnesty. We seem to always forget that some parts of the US once belonged to Mexico. Stop being such racists!
Then build a fence or whatever.
Mexicans work hard & contribute to this country whether you like it or not. Who agrees???

The problem I'm seeing is. The thin line many churches used to imply their message is now being crossed to the point they are yelling their message out loud and at all costs. This is basically making the statement that God supports our man. Which is the same as the Holy Roman Empire or many of these supposive Islamic States that are supposed to be so unstable and undemocratic. Where do you draw the line in saying this is your opinion and quit using the implication of God to support it.

go ahead do any city with a higher minimum wage and then calculate cost of living change between that one and a lower minimum wage comparable city. and you will have to make more money to live. Is that just coincidence?

"Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction. We didn't pass it to our children in the bloodstream. It must be fought for, protected, and handed on for them to do the same, or one day we will spend our sunset years telling our children and our children's children what it was once like in the United States where men were free."
