I am a girl and 5'2 (barely, exactly 5'2 almost 5'1 I guess) and I was wondering if I am too short to join the Army?

It doesn't cost anything! It only takes a second! All you do is select a card (some are really cute), give 'em your hometown, state, and they'll send the card to a soldier in Iraq. I've already done it three times! Although I'm gonna do it more times. Don't forget to remember 9/11.

This is the alleged plan of General Patreous, and he was asked if he could sustain through even next summer as he skirted that question pathetically for me.

As an educator/tutor I believe it is my responsibilty to provide a variety of opinions (pros and cons if you will) for my students. I feel this provides them a broader understanding of world situations and also to make their own decisions. Why should I be punished for doing so? The majority of my peers agree with me, but have refused to take a stance on the subject. I thought the U.S. was a place of free speech?

or that at the very least he attempts to mislead the american people and insults our intelligence.
What I am looking for here is current events if possible, but also a very detail analysis of the scenarios where you claim he lied or that he tried to hoodwink the people into supporting something that he knows they dont want.

My husband went to air force basic traing three weeks ago, and three days after he was there he got a migrane cluster headache. Now he is in the medical barracks and waiting for two and a half weeks there. After friday they said that it should take ten days till the paperwork is done and then another ten days to leave. He also got a captain to speed the process up faster, but how long is he going to be there and is there any other way of making it faster? They are just paying him to sit and do nothing! Thanks!

A co-worker of mine had a tape recorder in her pocket to record another co-worker who was yelling at her.
Is this practice allowed in the State of Florida?

My cousin was telling me that she calls 1800-GRAB-DUI every time someone drives like a moron where she lives. You don't necessarily need a plate # but it's helpful, especially on highways and in larger cities.
Let me tell you, I never knew you could do anything about the people who are driving dangerously other than gripe. Since then I've called several times, not just because I got cut off or something so simple, but for people doing things that will likely cause an accident.
Today, for example, we were in a construction zone on the highway. This jack@ss decides he can't wait through traffic so he's zipping through cars at a high rate of speed- mind you, we're all STOPPED completely. He actually drove around the orange barrels and was driving through the construction area to pass 10 or 15 cars. Either this moron was drunk or he was in one heck of a hurry. Either way, no excuse.
So, did you even know you could call and report these idiots & have you ever used the number?

My Contemporary Issues class wrote a statement on the board :
"State lawmakers have the right to make laws that are in the best interest of their citizens even if those laws violate the laws of the U.S. Constitution"
AGREE OR DISAGREE
My homework is to find 5 reason's why i disagree with the satement.
I have 2.
1. If this were an active statement a state would be able to take away our 1st Amendment-Freedom of Speech, religion, and expression. By living in that sate you would no longer have that right if the above statement were true.

2. If the states could make laws that violate or oppose the U.S. Constitution then that would violate the 14th Amendment which states that all men are to be treated equally and have the same opportunities.

Please help me and give me 3 more.

President Bush today asked that " All Americans honor the selfless men and women of our Armed Forces, the dedicated members of our public safety, law enforcement, and intelligence communities, and the thousands of others who work hard each day to protect our country, secure our liberty, and prevent future attacks."

What will Ann Coulter do to honor "‘The Witches of East Brunswick"?

The terrorists don't care if the next President is black, white, pink, purple, male, female or shemale. They have vowed to destroy the USA. So, even if we withdraw from Iraq we will be battling terrorism for a LONG time.

Do you think it's really intelligent and classy for the President of the United States to tell another world leader that we are "kicking a$$ in Iraq"? I'm referring to the comment made to Australian Deputy Prime Minister Mark Vaile by Bush...

Ok, so I work in a small mortgage office. I work under three different managers (2 male and 1 female) and a broker (owner). One of the male managers, let's just call him Jerk, is a big jerk! He is a complete control freak! He makes my life at work a living hell. Everyone in the office is convinced that he has something on the owner because for some reason the owner lets him do whatever he wants. He over rides the other two managers...even the owner. So many people have quit because of him. But the owner won't fire him. He allows it and his company is downsizing because of him. He bullies all of the loan officers here. Everyone hates him here. You get the point.

Well, I am the receptionist here at the office. He HATES it when I engage in any type or form of conversation with anyone. He always "butts" in and says it's time to break it up or asks what do you have to be doing right now kind of question. Like if I am talking to my direct manager about work related stuff, he'll interrupt
