1) What happens after finishing Army and Marine boot camp?

2)If I went to MEPS and didn't qualify for the military because of my vision ( I have keratoconus), can I fix my vision by surgical means (corneal transplant) and go back to the same MEPS station or a different one. Do they record my status of disqualification on every MEPS station in America or just the place where I got disqualified?

According to Democratic candidates who ran for House of Representative seats in 2006, Rahm Emanuel, then head of the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee, took sides during the Democratic primary elections, favoring conservative candidates, including former Republicans, and sidelining candidates who were running in favor of withdrawal from Iraq.

Appointed as head of the DCCC by then-House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi, Emanuel spearheaded the Democratic Party effort to regain control of the House of Representatives during the 2006 election cycle. Emanuel claimed credit for the Democratic takeover and was promoted to chairman of the Democratic Caucus, the fourth-highest ranking position in the House. But his election tactics have been criticized by progressive activists and former Congressional candidates.

According to his critics, Emanuel played kingmaker by financially supporting his favored candidates during primary contests with other Democrats.

So why give Israel $3 Billion a year of US tax payer's money? Where would Houston be if they received an additional $3 Billion per year in revenue for 40 years?

Also, does asking this simple question without insulting anyone now make me an anti-semite?

Is the main reason people conclude that the U.S. Government was behind the WTC attacks on 9/11 based on the thought that, "somethings not right, these things aren't suppose to happen or it doesn't make sense?"

From my understanding, terrorism and terrorists attacks never make sense. By the very definition of terrorism, it causes disruption and fear...which is exactly what 9/11 did.

So are 9/11 conspiracy theorists basing their conclusion that the U.S. Government caused/created this simply because, "it doesn't make sense?"

Of course it doesn't make sense. It's a terrorist attack. Acts like this are not suppose to be understood when you live in a free society that have laws protecting life and a constitution that grants inalienable rights, such as the right to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.

Thoughts?

when we finally allow all illegal immigrants in this country and guess what the cost of living gets higher and the payrate lowers were the h-ll are the citizens going to live and work. are we ever going to run out of space. how much land space is left for living. are we going to keep building up. you know have housing that is as high up as the twin towers. and allow total strangers to live in our homes so that we can make the bills. I just donot get it the few immigrants that i know live in crowded apartments or houses were a whole family shares one room. are we the citizens for umteen generations going to end up living that way. how about like china are we going to live like them walmart workers that have to live in the open rooms, on nasty bunkbeds and share showers and cooking. and still pay the bills and not make enough to go anywhere with your life..

It's not!! Thomas Jefferson wrote a letter 14 years after the Constitution stating there is a need for separation of Church and State" to protect the Church. He didn’t want another Church of England. That’s to protect the Church!!

IF we believe what Bush says about Islamic terrorist, eg "they hate non-muslims", "they want to force their religion thorugh force" "they hate our way of life"ect, than why is it that Christian nations like Brazil, Sweden ect are not attacked by the 'indiscrminate' terrorist. Why is it that all the nations they attack are some how involved in the politics of the Middle east? Does anyone know the true reasons for Al Qaida attacking the USA, please try not to regurgetate the lies of Bush, try finding out from the horse's mouth, hell listen to Osama interviews tapes ect, in full not the media edited versions/
