    Will the Democratic filibuster be disabled?

    I'm glad, that gives him credibility on the issue, but my questions would be, who did he serve with, when, where, etc... I've served with all branches of the military except the Coast Guard (who is under the Department of Homeland Defense now anyway), in a multitude of units. Not counting...

    Will the Democratic filibuster be disabled?

    Re: Tradition Actually, since I left active duty under Clinton as a disabled vet, I remember it taking three months for me to be seen for something I was rated as 30% disabled for, and over a year for them to process my claim. My wife got out under Bush (2002) and was seen immediately. Her...

    War in Iraq not a part of the War on Terror???

    Uh...not sure what military you are referencing there, but in 9 years of service it is not the military I'm aware of. You know how a soldiers mind works? Have you ever been one? If not, I doubt that you really know. What jobs did the ones you have to pick from have? Within the Air Force...

    War in Iraq not a part of the War on Terror???

    I take anything Clark says with a grain of salt. We studied him a bit in OTS and while it wasn't a big public thing, he was investigated a couple times for incidents that really brought into question his integrity (one such incident involved him twisting the truth much like Clinton did when he...

    Europe: A Benchmark for Social Tolerance

    All of my grandparents come from other countries. My dad's dad from Italy. My dad's mom from Lithuania. My mom's dad from Ireland and my mom's mom from Canada (Quebec). Welsh, I'm not familiar with most of the big cities, but I know in El Paso, where it is about 75-80% Hispanic, there...

    Looks like they'll make some real progress now...if it is true. I hope so.

    Europe: A Benchmark for Social Tolerance

    Agreed! The U.S. has been doing it (somewhat) for a long time. Of course, there is a big problem with all this. Those of other cultures will integrate in a bit, but it is only natural for them to stick together so this is a help, but definitely not the solution. Look at the U.S., where the...

    War in Iraq not a part of the War on Terror???

    The fact is the War on Terror is against all terrorist organizations. There are a variety of military operations going on to combat a variety of terrorists. Some of them are carried out by the U.S. military, others are carried out by governments friendly to the U.S. This war is being waged in...

    War in Iraq not a part of the War on Terror???

    WHAT!!!!!!! Ratty, you're the one who missed the point! Please re-read the whole freaking thread and answer everyone here: Who brought Al Qaeda into this? I'll give you a hint: IT WAS YOU RATTY!!! The War on Terror deals with much more than Al Qaeda; though they are the biggest...

    War in Iraq not a part of the War on Terror???

    No, but for some reason I remember there being several parallels with our involvement in Yugoslavia and Iraq. Wasn't part of the reason we went into Yugoslavia because of genocide and war crimes? Defying NATO or something? It was not backed by the UN... Hmm...look what I found: Sounds...

    Question, since I'm not that familiar with it...why did we go to war in Yugoslavia?

    War in Iraq not a part of the War on Terror???

    Why do I have to explain myself.... 1. I'm sure the money provided to the families of homicide bombers was given to worthy charities, say the Red Crescent/Red Cross, NRLC, etc... 2. There were 55 minutes between posts and you're calling that double posting? Additionally, I'm quoting a...

    War in Iraq not a part of the War on Terror???

    You missed the boat again...how many times did I mention Al Qaeda in this thread? Only in response to you mentioning it. Please re-read everything because you're jumping to the wrong conclusions.

    War in Iraq not a part of the War on Terror???

    "I won't read Fox News 'cause I only like to read what I want to hear." Waaaahhh, boohoo! Ratty, Murdoch, Fox News is not the only news agency that has reported this. The War in Iraq is part of the (Global) War on Terror (which was started right after 9/11 with OEF). Al Qaeda is a major...

    USA elections

    It's official! I can't keep up. I'm not going to argue my faith versus the overall lack of faith around here. I'm also not going to argue the fact that the processes of our country are moving us towards the banning of gay marriage. If you don't like it, feel free to move. The laws should...
