It's pretty obvious that Pelosi is "willing to work with" Bush as long as he stops being so "Bushie" and starts a firm exit plan.

If you do not support the 12 month strategy, then what do you think is a realistic time frame to end the war?

I am on leave in Indiana right now. I am stationed at Ft. Drum, New York. I just bought a car and plan on driving it back to Ft. Drum. I need several documents to register my vehicle on Ft. Drum but one of the things is a document proving my vehicle had a safety inspection in the state it was registered. Now, safety inspections are apparently commonplace in New York but I have never heard them doing that here in Indiana (where my car is currently registered). What do I do?

Like oversees, if you have their first and lat name with city, no specific home address, though, can they be arrested? Does online 'predating' count if the bad guy is talking with the underaged girl but she doesn't mind?

Clinton for reasons (I know, lying under oath ) of having a extra marital affair. It is this affair which led to the impeachment hearings. Gingrich has had a string of affairs, starting when he was a young congressman. There are reports of his having oral sex performed on him while he was in the Congressional parking lot. He asked his wife for a divorce( he was seeing a young intern who he later married) while she was in the hospital with cancer. His second wife( I believe second or third) has come forward with information that would stop any serious attempt on his part to seek the presidency.( sexual indiscretions and infidelity He admits the affair(affairs?) but claims this does not make him a hypocrite. Then, what does? His political career is over, but Fox News will showcase him and ask him for his advice on the Clinton scandal. The pot calling the kettle black.

Wow what a proffesssional and brave force these are. Have you seen the footage on the news where they are using women and girls as human shields as they search the Palestinian homes?
Keep your heads up though as I'm sure their government will give a perfectly reasonable explanation as to why they need to hide womens skirts.

Before the election, the gasoline prices were high. Just before election, the prices went down. After the election, the prices are going up again ? Is this a political manipulation or just a coincidence ?

Please don't answer just to bash a party. I understand most Republicans. Most believe in God. Most believe in slow change with little spending. And I understand Liberals to be mostly the about no restriction freedom with very little government. Democrats are just for democracy? These lines do not at all seem clearly drawn enough for anyone to label themselves or anyone else?

President Johnson messed the thing up, so congress deciede to fix things. That made things worse. We have one commander in chief and he has made mistakes, but if you check past history they come to their senses and come up with a good plan.
I'm not going mention names because people will accuse me of comparing him to them and he is no where as good.

you can't protest, because you say it kills the solders... you can't leave, because that would be losing and we can't lose...

theoretically... what if we were in a bad war that was doing nothing more than wasting resources, in your opinion? could you even oppose it and be consistent with the beliefs you say you believe in on here?

or... once we start fighting... you can't question it anymore and you have to support it... no matter what the possible cost... or reasons... or what may happen because of it?

Since some of you don't like the "opinion" of the colonel I quoted (he was a colonel during the vietnam war, later a general) regarding their victory because of the liberal anti war movement,

WILL YOU TAKE THE VIETNAM WAR ERA GENERAL'S (GENERAL GIAP) OPINION MORE SERIOUSLY?

"You defeated us! We knew it, and we thought you knew it. But, we were elated to notice the media were definitely helping us. They were causing more disruption in America than we could in the battlefields. Yes, we were ready to surrender. You had won!""

On the Form I- 751 it asks to send copies of documents showing that the marriage was entered in "good faith", and it mentions Birth Certificates of children born to the marriage, lease or mortgage contracts, joint bank accounts, tax returns, insurance, utility bills, loans and OTHER DOCUMENTS that you consider relevant to establish that your marriage was not entered into in order to evade the U.S. inmigration laws.

What "other documents" could there be?


Thank you so much for taking the time to read this, I know it's long!

I joined the Air Force DEP a few months ago and now i've changed my mind about it and don't want to go. I swore in and signed my contracts and everything. How do i get out of it? besides not being eligible anymore (i'd like to avoid pregnancy or shooting myself in the foot), what can i do that won't be considered desertion? i mean, can i just tell my recruiter i don't want to go anymore?

In America, there are people of different religions and different political views, however deep inside their heart they are all Americans, like "brothers", so if one of them gets attacked everyone unites to try and defeat the attacking enemy.

The same thing is happening in Iraq. Although Iraq is a separate country, all middle-eastern countries including itself are predominantly “Muslim States”. So, though there might be small trifles or civil wars between these countries, they all have a feeling of Muslim brotherhood - so if one country is being attacked by a foreign power (America in this case), then all these countries forget their small trifles and differences & unite together to fightback and defeat the American troops.

This is where Bush screwed up badly - in his desire to get oil, he overlooked the basic fact that though Iraq is an independent country, it is still a "Muslim state" like several other Middle Eastern countries (particularly Iran). So, while Bush envisioned defeating the Iraqi resistance (meanwhile projecting to innocent Americans that he’s trying to bring Iraqis freedom from terrorism and a tyrant Saddam Hussain) and securing oil bases within a period of 2 years, he failed to notice that the resistance which the American troops will be facing is not merely from Iraqis, but from it’s Muslim neighbors as well. Now Bush has realized his mistake and has called for extra troops, more resources & plans for bombing Iran (this time under the pretext that Iran is manufacturing nuclear weapons & their leader Ahmedinejad is yet another tyrant).

Don’t you agree with me?
