If you think the Pentagon, and this Administration, really takes our soldiers in Iraq seriously, take a guess as to how many Medals of Honor have been awarded since the "war" began.

Hint: A soldier was 122 times more likely to be awarded the Medal of Honor in Vietnam and 232 times more likely in World War II.

I'm mainly looking for repsonses from anyone bust mostly middle of the road Democrats.

I'm not against them saying their peace but if it's not constructive and they are being hypocrites or if it passes the line from free speech to treason I'm not going to listen.

Do you in the middle not like those people, and same to Republicans what do you think of the people further to the right do you think it hurts Republicans?

It seems both people when debating bring up the far extremes on both sides so does it make you mad that those extremes are giving the other party ammo against your beliefs based on the extreme people?

Is there any other way to please them, were it's no there way or the highway?

If there is no line isn't that a bit exreme?

on the FBI Employment site, they say, "To qualify under the Diversified Program, you must have a BS or BA degree in any discipline, plus three years of full-time work experience, or an advanced degree accompanied by two years of full-time work experience." what does this mean? i don't understand it exactly, i think it may mean that you don't have to specialize in something that deals with law or law enforcement, but i'm not sure. what does it mean, and what kind of oppurtunities would someone who qualifies under "diversified" be?

She was elected to the Senate in 1998 and re-elected in 2004, being the only southern Democrat elected to the Senate that year. After Mary Landrieu of Louisiana, she is the most senior southern Democratic senator and also serves as Democratic Rural Outreach Chair. Would her selection as Vice President help the Democratic Party, espescially in the South and among female voters?

I am an ex-model who sacrificed a life to work in acting/modeling for a life in helping others because my heart led me to work in not-for-profit. I am 27, no kids, and have a degree with my own place, nice car, and savings. However, I can not find decent men for the life of me to date. I'm not all about money, but just trying to find a hard worker who is as motivated and self-sufficient as me. I am tired of paying for their dinners in the relationship or reminding them they ahve unpaid bills while in long-term relationships. It seems every guy I date can't find a job, lost his job, or is a security guard. What is with this?

JAKARTA, Indonesia (CNN) -- A strong earthquake with a preliminary magnitude of 6.4 struck off the southwestern coast of Sumatra Friday in the same area shaken by a major 8.4-magnitude temblor that killed 13 people earlier in the week.

The Pacific Tsunami Warning Center initially issued an alert but lifted it later after no problems were reported.

The quake struck at 6:01 a.m. (2300 GMT Thursday), 120 km (75 miles) west-southwest of Sumatra's Bengkulu province and 650 km (405 miles) west-northwest of Jakarta.

I had an experience with a local new police officer in my town. My husband was caught driving on revoke lieance about 5 houses down from where we live. My husband, which was in the wrong told the police officer that he was going to drive 5 houses down and pull my truck in the drive way because i needed it to go to the hospital to be with my daddy but the officier told him no but my husband shut the door and drove about 15 miles per hour and pulled in the drive way and just sit there for the officier to arrest him. I was standing out in the yard and instead of the officier going over to the truck to my husband, he jumps out of his car and starts running at me with his gun pointin on my chest, because they have the red dot that shows them where they going to shoot, and screemin at me like i was the one violating the law, and here i am standing in shock afraid hes going to fall over a toy and shoot me or one of my kids was going to wake up and run out the door and get shot ..
