The article, whose link I've provided, suggests that what little remains of our democracy is merely the illusion of democracy. Musolini once defined fascism as the "merge of state and corporate power. Are we witnessing the final throes of a 200 year old democracy as it deforms into tyrannical fascism?

I just received a letter telling me that I passed the written exam for my local police department (to be a police officer). The next step is an oral interview.

I haven't interviewed for a job in over 5 years and I have NEVER interviewed for a Law Enforcement position before. Does anyone have any tips to help me get through my oral interview with flying colors?

Thanks to all!

I understand Iwo Jima, maybe we needed the airstrip but Tarawa? Who needed it? Couldn't we just have ignored it until after Japan surrendered? What logical reason for sending all those G.I.s to their death?

President Bush insists that he is God's messenger here to bring peace to the Middle East. Just about every other country disagrees with him and believes he is making a horrible mistake. Was 911 really a conspiracy? Is President Bush a puppet for a larger picture?

She did violate the election laws so that she could cast her ballot for Tom Foley. Tom Foley is a "******" pedophile who is hiding in rehab. Isn't it strange that she didn't have anything to say about that though? I guess Republican "******" pedophiles are ok in her sick little mind. So she totally forgot about Foley and slandered a Democratic Presidential candidate with that label. Quite a coincidence, wouldn't you say?

I have heard that the use of certain drugs automatically disqualifies you in some states. What about Ohio?

This is what a neocon said:

"Every commander on the ground in Iraq is claiming that we're WINNING the war. I heard one general say that the US military has not lost a single engagement since the invasion.

Not a single one.

And yet liberals call it a mess.

What do you think? Do liberals think that America winning is a mess? Are they embarrassed by it?

Or do liberals have such a contempt for morality that they WANT us to stop chasing down terrorists? Do they want civil rights for terrorists and freedom to "express" themselves?

(Personally I would be embarrassed to call myself a liberal. I would truly be afraid of being laughed at everywhere I go.)"


So CAN ANYONE PLEASE TELL ME WHY ALL THE TOP GENERALS THAT SAID WE SHOULD BE PULLED OUT OF IRAQ, ARE ALL FIRED, AND THE ONES THAT AGREE WITH BUSH ARE IN POWER?

WHY DID BUSH NEED THE SUDDEN CHANGE IN GENERALS?

I am applying for a job as a Community Service Officer while I go back to school for my degree in a few weeks. I have no criminal record, never been arrested, done volunteer work, never been fired, pretty much a normal, helpful, law abiding citizen in most ways.

The only problem is my driving record. Since 2001, I have had 1 accident for which I received a careless driving citation, and took the court ordered course for it. I have also received 5 speeding citations, 4 Unlawful Speed(all but one were less than 10 mph over limit), and 1 Speed In Excess Of Posted Maximum. For 4 of these, I completed the courses and no points were assessed. For 1, I paid the fine, and as of current I have only 3 points on my FL License. I have also received 4 Improper Equipment citations, not for faulty equipment but for neon lights, turn signal color, etc.

I have a great resume and an outstanding personal record, but what are the chances that my driving record will keep me from getting the job?
