It seems to me that we are sending societies bravest and britest out to die for a group of people that don't want to change. In my opinion, the blood of the men and women of our military should be gaurded like a national treasure and put at great risk only when necessary.

I found it appalling when I read about the Walter-Reed scandal involving the care of our own serving men and women. But it got even worse when I read that our OWN government has short-changed our serving men and women by the tune of $38B in much needed equipment, training, and shore leaves--just so they can get them to the front faster.

Is this how Bush and his ilk show "gratitude" towards our own military? By screwing them every which way till Sunday?

I mean, you can't conduct a war on the ground, when you willfully *ignore* the needs of our military, and then go on the parrot-talk show route and claim to support them, and then say: "There will be hard and difficult times ahead, and we know the sacrifices our men and women in uniform have to make by defending freedom and democracy at home and abroad."

I don't know about the rest of you, but this makes me *sick*.

And I'm anti-war, anti-government.

Why is it so hard to support our troops who have returned from Iraq who need medical services? Why are they not being taken care of? Why is it that the administration only found out because he was "reading the paper"? This is a sadness to me.

Veterans for Peace, and Military families speak out, a non-profit anti-war organization composed of veterans and their family members, ( Marines, Army Navy Air Force) organized the sit-in as part of their “National Occupation Project,” with which the group hopes to sway at least 218 House members. They said 218 votes would provide the necessary majority to veto the President’s supplemental budget request for additional military funding, thereby facilitating the end of the Iraq war. The war is based on lies and the troops have died for nothing. The Iraq war is a failure and troops and their loved ones are proud to be part of the anti war effort.

Last week I watched a documentary on the US Marine Corp on PBS. Very interesting show, not to mention humbling ( I woudn't last 24 hours in boot camp!). It got me wondering: when did the marine corp (as well as the army and other branches of the military) start using the training methods (ie boot camp) that are used today? Did they have boot camp during the Civil War? World War 1? Any military historians or vets out there that know, your answers will be much appreciated.

I love flying so I decided to go in as a Navy pilot. My recruiter told that it is fun and that it is very competitive. So this question came upon me. I am just curious and I want to know all about being a Navy pilot. I want you to tell me everything that comes to mind. Go all out, tell me about the schooling, what it takes to be a pilot, tell me about the paygrade and when will I be able to fly. Tell me is it fun can I choose to go to a ROTC program in college. So just tell me everything that you can possibly think of when becoming a Navy pilot. PLEASE HOLD NOTHING BACK!!! All information is greatly appreciated. HOWEVER, this is a competition for ten points so the most amount of information gets the points.

There are 45 million people in our country that do not have health care. Obviously, there are enough democrats out there that wish these people could be provided with government health care. So how about while filing tax forms there should be an extra section asking "do you wish to contribute to health care?" This way, everybody who does not feel their hard earned money should be going to these people, don't have to pay. Everybody who supports it can front the bill. Is this a legitimate compromise or no? Any better ideas?

My husband recently began thinking about getting circumcised. Oddly enough i've never been with a circumcised man and didn't really know how to respond when he told me he was thinking about having it done? Is it really any different at all? Will lovemaking feel different? Has anyone been in a similar situation? Well any answers/advice would help really.
