therefore, the best way to protect yourself against any assailant is to attack him before he attacks you... or better... before the thought of doing so has even occurred to him, so you may be able to render your assailant unconscious before he is even aware of your very existence

In regards to Illegal Immigration: If President Bush would thumb his nose at the people and support illegal aliens into this country primary for businesses as a cheap source of labor despite the clear and undeniable ground swell against. Why do you think he refuses to listen to the people?

And what does his unyielding support of illegals reveal regarding his support for the wealthy vs. the middle class?

Has the fact that there's still no border fence, the INS has not significantly increased, at best there are only sporadic work place round ups of illegals, some local governments are issuing offical ID's and\or turning a blind eye to the fact that this country is being invaded... has President Bush shown his true colors inasmuch as he really doesn't care what the middle class thinks or needs?

Is he all about Wall Street and the wealthy? From my perspective he certainly seems to have a certain disdain for the average working man\woman.

He is like the smartest guy ever and his idea of converting totalitarian Iraq into a Democracy just makes perfect sense since there are three minority groups in Iraq that all hate each other and Iraq is practically destined to stay a totalitarian government no matter what tries to be done to it. He is a really cool guy. No Child Left Behind was another good idea of his because poor schools will become even more poor if they do not raise their test scores. Instead of reallocating all of the monetary expenditures of the more rich schools to the schools that can not even afford text books, it is promoting richer schools to try harder to get even more money. Wow. makes so much sense. America is a great country under a great leader.

I was wondering when you enlist in the Navy as a Corpsman can you get in your contract that you want to go greenside. I have heard that you can go Division which I guess is greenside. Ive been talking to a recruiter and they tell you what you want to hear. So I want to hear it from real corpsman. Ive been thinking about either going reserves or National Call to Service. I really want greeside because I want to be Marine Doc. Also when you do go greenside how do get to go out on patrol because ive known corpsman that were greenside that ran a clinic in Iraq on a marine base. Do you volunteer to be a grunt corpsman or do they put you there. Thank you

The US spent more than 8.2 Billion dollars to arm the trained Iraqi troops and police. part of this sum was spent to provide these troops with more than 185,000 pieces of AK47 original Russian made, 170,000 pistols 9mm.
the issue is that 190,000 pieces CANNOT be located by the US troops...in other words these weapons are lost! not to mention that Iraq was already armed to the teeth with light weapons that was distributed by Saddam's government during the war......WHERE ARE THESE WEAPONS, how can a government system like the US army be so careless....dont they know that the country is already facing a civil war? what about the american people that paid for these weapons?
i am not an american...as a matter of fact i am from the middle east, and i am really surprised that such a mistake happens specially from a country that is a leader in management and organising skills. and it is a FACT that 20% of american troops casualties in Iraq are caused by light weapons?

The woman is now running on her husbands record. Would she be a serious contender if she wasnt the former first lady? I dont think so. She doesn't have a record of her own. She hasnt done anything. She has no leadership experience. Why should we listen to her?

I have been even accused of being Anti-Semite for dividing 20 Billion over 4.9 Million and getting 4081.63 as a result. I'm serious... you can see it here:

http://answers.yahoo.com/question/i...

I get the feeling that they just throw the accusation without even thinking about its meaning, or do they? Is it being confused with other terms like Anti-Judaism (religion), Anti-Israelis (Nation) or Anti-zionist (Political movement) while Semite is an ethnic race!

Could this backfire? Do you think the term is loosing its significance like the story of that guy who used to cry "Wolf"?

Is it just emotional blackmail, or do Zionists take these accusations seriously? Or is it some kind of collective Paranoia?

Aren't both just as bad? I guess it is a bit different for me as my husband and father-in-law are in the Army, and when you know the person in the armed forces, they are more than the fighting force for your country, they are your loved ones, your dad, mom, sister, brother, husband, wife, uncle, aunt, cousin....But why do some make it seem like it's ok when they do die?

Well, I'm going to answer that, partially, at least. Aside from the pompous self-righteous attitude of your common everyday American, there is the biggest issue. Call it hypocrisy, call it BS, call it whatever you want. It's there.

The United States is the self-titled Humanitarian Nation of the World, spreading freedom, liberty, and justice...Except when it's not.

If you want to look further back, there is, of course, the Native Americans. A little beyond that is the Philippines, and the aftermath of the Spanish-American War.

Or how the United States completely ignores anything the U.N has to stay. Once the United States became the superpower to beat, it became obvious the true intention behind this government. There was a 1972 treaty banning the use of biological weapons and germ warfare. To enforce this law, the U.N made an agreement to allow the search of ALL nations, but of course, the U.S refused to allow any such searches of their arsenals. -Out of space, can't type

Ask some questions:
Legally
Can a minor buy cigarettes
Can a minor buy alcohol
Can a minor vote
Can a minor get a drivers license in all 50 states
Can a minor sign a contract without a parent
Can a minor get married w/o parental consent
Can a minor give sexual consent
Can a minor join the service
We all know that there's more but I think if kids can be charged as adults then they should get all the rights, freedoms and privileges as adults. It's only right or we charge them as juviniles because they are still kids and can be rehabilitated so they can be better adults.

About 6 months ago I had laser surgery. Before the surgery I had to sign papers that the money would come off my back account automatically. This would be a lump some the day before and afterwards monthly.

I did this. I handed it in. They have the permision/documents to take the money off the acount. The problem is that they haven't done this. They havent done anything. I haven't paid for it.

Really I think this is not my responsibility. Do I ethically/morally have to give them a call?
