Muslims claim in North America and Europe, that they are being oppressed. I find the complete opposite. Muslims have been given greater care in N.A. and Europe since 9/11 to make sure that they don't feel "oppressed". Yet they keep claiming injustice, where there is no injustice. How would a white person be treated in Iran, Saudi Arabia, or some other Middle East coutnry (excluding the Jewish state). I'm sure that we would then really find a case of oppression!

A liberal, a conservative and an independent are waking down the street together when they are all hit by a bus and killed. They arrive at the pearly gates together and St. Peter explains to them that Heaven is going through renovations.
“Everything is a real mess here, so if you pay be $500 dollars each, you can return to your lives. You have one hour to decide.” He explains.
The conservative strokes a cheque and all of a sudden he is back on the street. He waits for 59 minutes and the independent arrives.
“What took you so long?” he asks his fiend.
“You know how I like to take my time to decide.” he said.
“But what happened to the liberal?” the conservative asked.
“Oh, he thinks the government should pay it for him.” the independent answers.

Army Counter-Terrorism soldiers always have to ready for any missions 24/7. But are they allow to take break time/vacation(Leave) like other soldiers?
Seems like they have no free time or no time for anything else. They are always oversea somewhere.. Are they actually "allowed" to take certain days break?

MY son was born in canada in 1987. I was (and still am) an American citizen, as is his father. I brought my son into the states at nine months old and we have been here ever since. when i crossed him at the american customs, he was declared an american citizen born abroad, i was able to get him a social security card with no problems and have had no problems until now. My son is now 19 and wants to join the Air Force. Now we are being told that since 9/11 the immigration laws have changed and unless i went to the american embassy at the time of his birth, and DECLARED him to be a american citizen born abroad, he i in this country illegally. Has anyone had any thing like this ever happen, if so...what did u do??

I don't believe there are many politicians out there, outside the local levels of government, who feel the need to actually serve their constituency.

Excitement surrounding the Obama campaign has subsided. Most polls show Senator Clinton with double digit leads over her competitors. Does she have a lock on the nomination?

Concerning Israel, first off, who's in the right? Israel was given to the displaced Jewish survivors of the Holocaust, but who did it belong to first? Palestine is obviously going about this the wrong way; violence rather than diplomacy, but imagine, just imagine for one second, that Palestine is in the right? In one sense, it could be said that Palestine is trying to get land back, but in another, it could be said the same that Palestine is trying to take land that didn't belong to them. What is your view on the matter, from both the Israeli and Palestinian views? And please, spare me sarcasm, if you must act sour, email whatever personal attacks you must send to me, but don't trash the question with them. It's unfortunate that I have to say that, but many of my previous questions have been hit with the poisonous remarks of people who didn't even have an answer, and in rare occasion by the incompetent altogether.

Because so many democrats insisted Bush did not win the FL popular vote, but was only elected by court decree, several major newspapers decided to do their own recount. What was the outcome of that count and where can I find it?

One reads that CIA officers carry out interrogations but do they have a military rank? Are all interrogations carried out by CIA officers and private contractors or does the army perform some of its own? Can a lieutenant colonel carry out an interrogation or is that highly unlikely?

I heard, on a progressive radio talk-show that Ehern Watada's court marshal was declared a mis-trial by the judge.

I haven't heard one thing about this case on the Republican owned main-stream news media outlets, like FOX News, or ABC, channel 7.

Does anybody have any links to the full story?

Was it declared a mis-trial because the U.S.military didn't have enough evidence to courtmarshal the man, and how do all the cons that rashly called the man a traiter feel now, after exposing their foolishness to the world?
