My ACLU card: Makes a 4 star General salute and stand at attention. Makes war supporters shake like a leaf in the wind. Gives me "respect". Has my name on it. How long will the line be at the military base if I offer it?

I am pretty sure that it could take atleast that amount of time to stabilize the crazies in that region. It is a religious and civil war that has been going on for years.

Why is the news "propaganda machine" still reporting nothing but negativity from Iraq?They had no US casualties to report so instead of focusing on the positive in the Middle East, the bullshitss media ran a story on previous US casualties, showing their Hummves blown apart., airing old footage that did not even correspond to the story, they could not even mention that no one was killed in Iraq today, because that would be positive..HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO THE HONORABLE MR. BUSH

I feel as though there's nothing I can say to make him feel better. What can I do to show him I care and that his loss is my loss as well?

The War in Iraq was supposed to be over in 6 or 8 months. ( Anyone remember Rumsfelt saying "I don't believe the war in Iraq will last over 6 or 8 months"?)( Said in Feb 2003.) Why are our soldiers being killed everyday in Iraq? The Vice President stated the Iraq war could last another 50 to 80 years in order to do it correctly. Could this war really last another 80 years?

I got a punishment from my class instructor. I have to write a certain sentence 1500 times. In my case it is "I will never go anywhere without a battle buddy"
Well does anyone know any tricks on how to make it easier on me. by the way it has to be done so it looks if I done it by hand.

I am left on the political spectrum, radical left. But this quesion is open to all. I feel like supportes of the war may not have a clear, rational understanding of the objectives of the war. Is it just military domination and suppression/ How will the hatred of the west, and its policies be alleviated.. just by crushing force? Because it seems that this will just breed more animosity.

Conservatives and liberals alike... what does an end to this war look like?

And if you say "to bring democracy" i challenge you with the historical record which clearly indicates that US policy is not concerned with real democracy. We support regimes which are undemocratic, but serve our interests. We overthrow democratically elected governments if they dont open up their resources to our crporations dominating their economy. The record on this is clear, and if you want to challenge this historic reality, come with evidence, homies........ Peace.

made it to cross the atlantic in 1492? have you seen the 3 caravelles replicas? they are so small and unsteady that only with Gods will could they have crossed the atlantic. How about the Boston tea party? And later freeing of America from the well organised war savy british forces. At the hands of a few war untrained and badly armed peasants? Was it all a miracle that out of nowhere suddenly as if by magic practically single handely America won the II W W on two distinct fronts. And catapulted as the world most powerful nation. South Korea is striving, while north Korea is starving. Vietnam is desparetly tryng to win the grace of America, or they will starve too. Apparently not a single American Soldier died in those lands in vain considering the results.Ten or fifteen years from now terrorism will be history, and the free people of the middle east and of Asia will be thankful to America. I think God had to want it that way. What do you make of all these?

I read all of your comments and thanks. i have been talking to his mom a lot. i told her yesterday that i didn't know why he was not writing but maybe he did not want to be with me anymore. and she said he asked about me in his last letter and said he was going to write. i don't understand why he would write home and say he was going to write me, and not just do it. i thought for awhile that i was not receiving his letters, maybe it was lost, since the last letter was saying he loves me so much, etc. but i don't think he's writing. if he hadn't received a letter from his girlfriend in 3 weeks, then he should write home or to me and say why haven't i written just like i did to him. he has enough time to write 3 or 4 letters home in the last 3 weeks, so i think he should at least write me once and say he's busy so i know everything's okay. that makes me feel like either he doesn't care about me or he just thinks he can come back and say i was busy, sorry. that's not fair.

He did not make weight by 0.1%. Now they are saying he has to wait 2 months to come back and be down to 26% instead of the original 29.9%. This doesn't seem right to me, is it? Is there anything we can do to get him in sooner?
