isn't the real reason you support the war in Iraq is due to a the stock you have in one or more of these companies or the like? Or maybe your mommy or daddy have stock and you are the fat cat gonna score big?

or do you simply support the war becuase your church (bush co.) tells you to?

is it too dificult to see through the myriad of lies and deceipt bush has pulled?

the sad part is most Americans ad the worlds eyes are open. We have awakened or were already awake.

yet sadly you still support. The lies echoe in your headm and out of sheer embarassment or pride you refuse to wake up. Many other republicans have abandoned ship. I did. Many otehr former military leaders, politicians, people, have just had it with teh devistation bush has brought to our nation.

isn't it simply time to conced, swallow your pride and get the real criminals and terrorists of America?

isn't it time to cal it a day and spare the lives of the troops. And stop the $1.6 T yes i said Trillion war??

I find I'm always on guard near police and I never feel at easy. This excludes when you are calling for help. Just wondering because I don't see them as a protection anymore. And with all their powers they just seem to be there to break your rights. Anyone else agree or disagree? Please no angry bashing.

I'm currently serving in the USAF reserve right now as a mechanic, but I will be graduating college in two years. Do you think I should go into officer field? I will be getting a degree in nursing and I would love to help out with treating soldiers. I can only imagine how often I will get deployed, which is a good thing to me.

Anyway, should I do that (join the Nurse corps as an officer) or should I stay in my career field? Although I like my current career field and my coworkers are great, it's kind of boring and I wish I could have more of a direct impact.

Also, if I do join the Nurse corps, should I stay in the Air Force or look into another branch? I would love to help out in the battlefield by treating wounded soldiers.

Ever since Semel came aboard, you believe that the lies of AP, and Reuters that attack our Nation are acceptable. You think that we believe like the Dems. Well, we do not. I think that you took this great browser and turned it into a communist propaganda forum. To think that you gained a monopoly power because your founders are Stanford Palo Alto socialist!

I don't mean LEGALLY, but MORALLY to you. Because, remember something: nothing is wrong BECAUSE it is illegal; It's supposed to be illegal because it's wrong. Right?

The son of an acquaintence of mine who at 18 slept with a 15 year old, and now he's having to register for the rest of his life as a sex offender. Is there not something wrong with that picture? He's being put in prison for years where HE WILL GET RAPED. So, who's the rapist here? This boy, or the state?

For AP US History, we're doing a mock trial of the 1866 Supreme Court Case of Ex Parte Milligan. I'm supposed to be defending Milligan. Can anyone think of some defenses I could use?

So far, my biggest point I've been able to think of is whether he deserves due process or not (need to back this up) and whether he deserves a civilian trial versus a military one.

He's been warning everybody for years now and, The Whitehouse and Congress have just left him swinging in the wind.
I'll bet you Tom Tancredo will be recognized as a prophet in the years ahead.
I don't really think he cares if he's elected. I think he just wants everyone to remember, -he told them so.

Have you seen the ad?
What did you think of it?

Sorry, I don't think it's on Utube. They feel it's inappropriate. Ha!

I was wondering if anyone knew the policies regarding ageing population in a country that includes
-increasing fertility
-encouraging migration
-increasing retirement age etc
Basically policies trying to deal with issues associated with an ageing population too, such as paying for retirees and the like.
If you know of any countries or sites that will encompass all these three points they're targeting pls Link :)
Two would be awesome

(I keep looking, cept i cannot find one gov that tries to do all that - eg one might only try increase fertility, while others are addressing the economic stresses more)

Will boot camp change you a lot, into some overconfident asshole and think your better than everyone else. I'm joining to become a stronger a person, but don't want to loose the chilled out self that i am. I don't want to be those people who think they are better than everyone else because i believe we are all the same person no matter what. Will that belief change? I don't want to be someone who causes fights with everyone just because he thinks he is important and tough. I see myself just as a form protector of society. Will boot camp cause me to have bad overconfident qualities and change beliefs like, "we are all the same person"
I look at this we are all the same person, but sometimes we gotta do what we gotta to PROTECT our nation.

For the past three days I have seen post from we'll say young adults about joining the military. Most of them saying they can't wait to jump into the action and join the war. Don't get me wrong I'm glad they want to join. But not one of these kids know the truth about real combat. Does this ever get to any of you guys who have been in combat?

Recently, there's been a rise in rape/homicide/muggings/etc in my city (Philly,PA). I'm very petite for my age (18 y/o, 5'1", barely 100lbs) and I hold a black belt in tkd.

But I'd feel safer if I had an item with me that would help should anything happen. i.e. mace, taser, etc.

What's out there that's effective?
