as if that were not bad eough, isn't the law suits by families going to be another burden on the taxpayer?

Blackwater's rambo/bush style kiiling Americans and then the families sue Blackwater? sn't this really more tax payer burden? Oh sure it comes out of blackwater's pockets. BUT who paid blackwater? you and I.

now how double whamie is that? thanks to Bush we pay for blackwater twice. oh and the loss of life is invaluable.

Thanks bush. Thanks Blackwater. Just screw America more and moe each day.

oh, and don't forget how smootha coverup goes if you write the reports yourself. "Blackwater contractor wrote government report on incident"

In most states you have to be registered with a party to participate in primary elections because the ballots are closed to those in the party. How fair is it that the candidate for a general election are chosen by most accounts by the far left and right. If you take Connecticut's primary for senator last year you saw how unfavorable Ned Lamont was to the populus. Now if this were an election for democrat we would not have the option to vote for a leiberman type our choices would be Ned Lamont and the right wing version of Ned Lamont, both of which are popular among a small portion of the total voting populus.

How can they say that Hitler was an atheist when he has gone on the record making these statements:

"National Socialism and religion cannot exist together" (1941)

"The heaviest blow that ever struck humanity was the coming of Christianity." (1941)

"Let it NOT be said that Christianity brought man the life of the soul, for that evolution was in the natural order of things." (1941)

"Christianity is an invention of sick brains: one could imagine nothing more senseless." (1941)

"We'll see to it that the Churches cannot spread abroad teachings in conflict with the interests of the State." (1941)

Also, Hitler told Hermann Rauschnig that he inten"to stamp out Christianity root and branch." (1933)

He also said: "One is either a Christian or a German -you cannot be both"

So why do people still say he was an atheist?

When a new car was $2K, stamps were $.04, and a fast food burger was $.25, gas was $.30/gal. When Jimmy Carter was president a just couple years later, it shot up over a $1/gal. and was in short supply, yet these dummies didn't blame him like they blame Bush today. At $3/gal., gas is exactly in line with anything else today. So, are these glass half empty liberals lying or are they just young and stupid?

Would it be business as usual? Would there be riots and protests? Would more illegal immigrants be encouraged to come? I understand these are only opinions but please only give me educated opinions. Thanks.

when you fill out a job application, there is a section to write down previous employment. if i was terminated from a job after giving my 2 weeks notice, can a potential employer call the previous employer and find out why i was terminated, or even that i was terminated at all? what information does a potential employer get when they call a previous employer?

It just occured to me. Why would they illegally jump across the border, if they could just drive across saying they are going on "vacation"? Not that illegal immigration is ok. But are they not allowed to vacation in the US at all?

People want things to change yet so many people aren't registered to vote. It takes less time to vote than it does to sign up for an e-mail account on Yahoo.

This afternoon we received a call from a viewer who said a business near downtown Reno was flying a Mexican flag above an American flag... which is in fact illegal.

This, after photos and comments about the flag were posted on Craigslist this morning. When we were able to have a photographer go and check everything out we found the story to be true.

It also didn t take long before the situation provoked a strong reaction. We are now going to show you , unedited, what happened. Click on the video to see what happened.

First things first, before I go to basic I will be 3 classes away from receiving my B.B.A in accounting and financing.

I was told to wait until I graduated before I signed the contract, because if I had my bachelor's I would go straight to OCS after basic training. I talked to my recruiter and he said that this is not true, you have to appointed to go to OCS, that just because the person has a bachelor's it does not mean they will go to OCS.
Now the question, I will finish my degree after "A" school, but will that degree help me get appointed to OCS?
When my contract is up, if I reenlist will the prior service and the bachelor's degree, hopeffully the MBA by then, help me get into OCS?
Last question, I am 26 y.o. as of now. Is there a cut-off age to become an officer/go to OCS?

In Michigan where I live there is a budget crises once again so the State Police posts are closing. Not all but too many. Maybe the people who caused this (our governor) should recieve no pay since they aren't doing anything.
