Oh really? Then why are most "roads" now at 65mph? That is clearly against the federal mandate of 55 now ain't it? Grey was only using 55MPH federal requirement during the 70-80s as an example of how federal money should be used and with extra requirements. That requirement was changed in the 90s, by t

I'm merely pointing out that the monkeys in the 9th Circuit could have merely struck down a federal law, which would leave the question where it belongs (at the local level). Federal money is spent in local schools, which make local schools libel to federal laws. That is why I personally believe vouch

COL Paying almost 40% of ones income in taxes while others pay none at all, just sounds like socialism to me. What is your fascination with socialism? It has only been proven to be a failing system. I'm still wondering why you want me to pay for someone else's health insurance. This country has been built on a controlled capitalism. I have a feeling that if the founding fathers had made this a socialist country, we would most likel

Saddam needed to be removed from power by the Iraqi people with the help of other Moslem nations. and what other Moslem nations would that have been? Iran, Syria,....I think those nations were to busy crushing their own dissidents. The Iraqi people tried to revolt before, but I am sure you just forgot

Great Article Tex. It is good to hear that your husband has so much support from you. My own wife is much like you, an Isolationist, that supports her man so that he can complete his mission and return home to her with respect.

The belief that the Anti-War crowd is Supporting the troops is just an attempt to fool them self into feeling better. It is just a feel good thing, to that make them think that they are not heading down the same trail that the Anti Vietnam groups who spit on returning troops did. But as a soldier I don't know of even one service member say "Gee, I really like that support Cindy Sheehan is giving us. I feel much better now." IMO it i

See, i get a different impression from it. The reason my husband is re-upping his enlistment is because he's got 13 years in and would be stupid to get out now and lose his pension.

Well according to the pentagon's latest estimate....They are going to need to keep current troop levels for the next four years at the minimum. If you’re going to quote the pentagon, please make your quote accurate. "In an Associated Press interview, Gen. Peter Schoomaker said the Army is prepared for the "worst case" in terms of the

Networks Making Headway In Middle East U.S. sponsored broadcast networks set up to counter anti-U.S. propaganda in Arab media are apparently making substantial headway in the Middle East (search). A new survey by ACNielsen (search) in nine Middle East countries shows that each week, in those countries alone, 21.3 million people watch TV news network Al-Hurra. And 20.8 million tune in to Radio Sawa, which carries a combo of music and news.

I think the concern is that they have been consistently missing their (even lowered) goals. Actualy Tex they have raised their goals this year by 7,000 over last year to meet the increased Army size mandated by congress. They have increased the goal every year for the last three years. The goals could be higher, but the reelistment rates have

While many complain about Iran and its Islamic laws, you must note that it is by far closer to a Democracy then most of the dictatorship in the area. The Iranian Constitution has two good parts. All males can vote at elections that are run fairly. Unfortunately only clerics are allowed to run for some offices. But ANY cleric that is Radical or liberal may run with no restrictions. The second part is that in the Iranian constitution allows that it can be changed by

The Iraqi constitution does say that the Bill of Rights portion supersedes Islamic law. The Bill of Rights has not even been written at this time. Much like our own Bill of Rights, it will be the true guide of what type of state will be produced. Remember, that woman's right to vote appears in our Bill of Rights nearly 120 years after it was written. Many of the same people complain that the reason why we have this terrorist problem is because of our attempts to force western

Hay, KB. Someone is paying for all those Anti-War TV ads with Cindy crying elephant tears on. I am sure they cost more then a presidential donors visit. It may seem rude to require cash, but both sides do it (unfortunately) and Cindy already got the chance to talk with the President free (a courtesy that not all families are afforded). That is why I feel no sympathy for her. What she is doing now is completely political, so IMO she should pay the political dime system that t

I think that Cindy could easily have raised the money, if she would have put her efforts into grass roots money rising. She could have managed to bring her problems out to the public and given the President a little black eye. Someone is funding her stay in Texas; let’s get them to pony up.
