What exactly is that difference then? I took money to go do a job in Iraq for the government (as do Blackwater folks). My job both caused deaths and prevented them (same as Blackwater). What is the difference? were they linguists or combat soldiers? an engineer civillian working for general dynamics can make the same claim as you (
Perhaps the loudmouths should remember that it is the revolutionaries who end up dead or in the camps Post-Revolution. threats violate the TOS here. lol
the duke lacrosse coach. did he resign,,, or was he forced to resign, or be fired? what do you think? and not everyone says that this lacrosse team was out of control. here's another side... Another picture that emerges from the New Yorker article is how unfairly President Brodhead treated Coach Pressler. And you get the fe
I was "asked to leave" a college by a coach who had drank enough beer with his players that they had stacked the cans to cover an entire dorm room wall. One of the list of heinous sins I was accused of was a bag of empties in my closet. If you haven't had to live in a dorm where the head resident was a coach and all the RAs were players, well, you don't know how bad it can
You got blown away on that poorly researched article and you quickly change the subject. actually, others changed the subject after the col used iraq as an example of everything being controlled by bush when asked about holding democrats accountable, reffereing to recent corruption. i saw nothing legitimately arguing against him. only
On this topic I have accused you wrongly. I still have serious doubts about the story but not your part in it. Please accept my apology. well done. credit where it's due goes here.
No problem SC, I was in the Army as a Korean linguist from 1992 until Oct 2005. I too went to Iraq for a bit (and enjoyed the hell out of it) and made a boatload of cash while there due to combat pays and tax-free status. well then, there is a difference between these blackwater folk and you. it seems to me that one side wants to genericize all c
Yes, but as professors they should know how our system of justice works. The 88 not only bypassed the assumption of innocence, but published their approval of the vigilante-style harassment of what they called "rapists". Come on, that's not behavior that should be allowed in ANY place that associates itself with "higher education". here, i agree
I still believe that the coach should have been fired. Not because his team was made up of rapists -- but because (from what I've read and if I remember correctly from the statement Duke made when he was terminated) he was well aware of the underage drinking and partying and did nothing to stop it. This wasn't a one-off party, but a regular happening. <br
The CC is the only institution in the entire world that has a consistent life doctrine. i believe i credited them with that. let's not go overboard tho...there is clear evidence of the aiding and passively accepting nazi practices before and during WWII. <TABLE cellpadding=8 width="95%" align=center bgColor=#FFF394 class="mb-Body-Quote-
an 8 year model and 4 wage hikes were enough to disprove any concrete relationship between cost of living / inflation and unemployment. 2 of the 3 factors (inflation and cost of living) weren't even challenged. the unemployment numbers were only "microscoped" under a couple of the 8 years covered. of course, we can go back more and cover every single increase in min. wages. some will show better and some will show worse numbers. what they won't show (and i know you know this, but won't say anyth
A lot has been made about these newest revelations, but by the time this case was a month or two old it was blatantly obvious that something was really, really wrong. I mean, once the election was over and it was obvious that this was bogus, why did he so stubbornly keep at it? it's only my opinion...but i think nifong figured the press would die
i am curious to the details here ..."Funny, I was a "contractor" in the military for 13 years and I made "boocoo" bucks in Iraq too." if i am asking something that has already been answered, you can just point me to that instead of wasting time re-answering it. thanks
You have been caught in so many lies in the past your credibility is gone. now THAT'S funny... Until today you were innocent until proven guilty, now you are guilty of telling lies until proven innocent. As a
Last spring, the nation supposedly was enlightened to a tragic course of events. A woman had been raped by 3 priveledged students at one of the south's premiere universities. And this time, justice would prevail. the students were quickly identified, indicted and imprisoned. Evidence, including DNA evidence was gathered that would prove these out of control rich-kids
i am anxiously awaiting an update as well, as i've been away for a few days.
you don't seem to have the slightest grasp of history at all. history is subjective. that gets proven here every day. his perspective is just different.

Show me "where in the article President Bush's policies are part of the arguement. About 150 of the university’s 600 faculty members attended the meeting, voicing a range of concerns, particularly on whether the school’s academic freedom and political independence might appear compromised by an associat
What garbage. Yup, that "7 minutes" made all the difference. you call it whatever you want. but if your chief of staff whispered "mister President, we are under attack" would you sit there like a stunned deer in headlights or would you get up, excuse yourself and find out what is going on in the country you are supposed to be in charge of and con
You two never will. i have been corrected on here and conceded many things pal...meanwhile all you throw around is right wing garbage and try to hold people to impossible standards and false standards. for an exmaple, just look above...his sources were hardly "all left wing." i see no aplogy from you. just more bullsh*t. or on
