I just heard about how they have had millions/billions of american currency shipped over to Iraq and they cannot account where the money went. I'm curious, wouldn't all that money spent so frivilously be better spent on providing health care for everyone here in the U.S.? I don't get it!

And not to wealthy Americans; Bush has already taken care of them. Couldn't the Gulf Coast use a hand up?

C'mon Cons, is "Screw America" really the philosophy we should aspire to hold in our collective hearts?

We are both British and have been together for 6 years, I have been offered a job at a University in the US.

How do we get a working VISA for her? Would she automatically get one if married to me? At least, I assume that if married she could come with me with no threat of having to leave. When in the country, could she then apply to work legally? Is this easy?

I am interested in your own experiences.

Hello everyone,today I got a complete shock while listening to the radio station that was interviewing Hillary Clinton.When the host asked Hillary Clinton on computer games and online games,guess what,the answer is that if she wins 2008 elections,she will go to congress and get all computer and online games banned in the USA.This is shocking,in our own rights,we have the right to play computer and online games.

My reserve unit (mp unit) is relocating in September, from Florida to California. I heard that they may move us to an airborne unit. I thought only airborne personel or airborne qualified made up airborne units. Most of us are supply, mp, cooks, mechanics etc....


lol i doubt theyll send us to airborne school, that would be cool though

Is there a future in this? It's rarely new. Considering getting a Masters in Conflict Resolution. Sounds good but if anyone has some advice or input that would be great.

It's a fairly new specialty and segment in law. Many corporations I believe are opting to take this route rather than spend large and unnecessary amounts of money going through a time consuming litigation.

It seems that many people here think President Bush is responsible, and he personally started the war to further his own hidden agendas, and to further the interests of big business. Correct me if I'm wrong, but didn't Al Qaeda/Taliban start it by murdering over 3,000 innocent American civilians?

hey everyone, my boyfriend had left for ft benning BCT about 3 weeks ago, and needless to say..i miss him a lot...
before he left he told me that he won't be able to write for a while because of the "total control" and/or "red phase" all BCT soldiers must go through..
but it's been...3 weeks? and i still haven't heard from him...i don't have his address because he was supposed to write to me from his barracks.
so has anyone graduately from ft benning recently? how long do the soldiers in BCT (FT BENNING) usually have to wait until they can write to their friends/family freely?
any help would be greatly appreciated.. =]

In the Peter Schweizer book: Do As I Say (Not As I Do): Profiles in Liberal Hypocrisy, Schweizer accuses Moore of hypocrisy, suggesting that he owns a variety of company stocks, including Halliburton stock, while at the same time criticizing these companies. This accusation is based on a tax return from a foundation Schweizer alleges is controlled fully by Moore. Moore is also a staunch advocate of gun control laws to keep every day citizens from aquiring handguns for protection, but at the same time is protected by armed security. Moore denied this on C-SPAN, with the statement "Michael Moore own Halliburton stock? See, that's like a great comedy line. I know it's not true - I mean, I've never owned a share of stock in my life. Anybody who knows me knows that, you know - who's gonna believe that? Just crazy people are going to believe it - crazy people who tune in to the Fox News Channel.

Key words: "Schweizer alleges" In other words it's his word against Moore's. This is not proof.

How come America blasts Iraq for not securing its borders with Iran and Syria, isn't this a bit ironic? Our credibility is sinking faster than the titanic.

75% of the people want us out of Iraq, but conservatives have a cardiac when the congressman try to vote that way.

Is this Democracy?

Yo America- Just checked out your President's Federal Budget Plan for 2008. Looks like the poor lose out again- Paying for a war they didin't want by a reduction in social and health programmes while the affluent have their taxes cut on a permanent basis. Go Democrats and chuck it out.
