Your link shows that Bush did not attend drills in may,june, july,Aug, sept and December which is what I said. 1. That does not matter, to make a good year. 2. Come on COL you know better then that. As a former Commander you should know this already. You can't pull the wool over my eyes, bec
COL Gene Here is Bush's pay records, please look again: Link I was also a little off, he attended drills was 52 days between 1 Oct 72 FY and 1 Oct 73 FY when he left service. If you can find drill attendence doctments within the units after twenty year, I would say they are most likely 99.9% forged. Units destroy those attendence record
As a person who commanded three Army Reserve Units, I know Bush did not serve honorably. The first and most important requirement is to obey orders. Bush failed that most basic principal by not attending drills and by not taking the required physical which resulted in him being grounded. You do not know what you are talking about
Ok, I'm going to be a tad bitchy here but it seems to me the idea we can export democracy and make little American style utopia's all over the world and then everyone will be free, happy, voting capitilists just like you and me seems more naiive than anything any of the "tree huggers" have said here. Sa
Sorry for having two. But I must confess I'm not a hater either, just not happy with everything he does. 1. Abstinence-only Education: Has been proven to not work * Link *, but he still wants to spend my tax dollars on a program that is only Abstinence. IMO Abstinence should be first, not only. 2. He want
Have you taken into account that the Majority of Europeans are OPPOSED to your presence in the Middle East regardless of how foolish their Leaders are to side with you What part of "more palatable", do you not understand? I'll let that slide because English my not be your first language. <T
I don't know why I keep answering this nut, but..... When one places Nationalism above Republic/Democratic ideals, one is asking for what they get. (Hint, Hint, Japan Oct 1936, Germany in 1930s) I'm very patriotic to my county, but I know when the Freedoms of Choice and Democracy should override Nationalism. That is why IMO that Europeans finds our presents in the Middle East more palatable as of late, now that they see Demo
I have one NCOER bullet from a long time ago that says I "Always does what is morally and ethnicly correct." Sorry to say Grey, after sitting on many boards and filling out many NCOERs, that type of statement means that your rater didn't have anything else to say and needed to add one more comment to m
Let me get this strait Rombios. If the US lost its Constitutional Freedoms to a Hitler style take over (like in the 1930s), then any person who would accept any aid from a foreign source in order to restore Democracy would be a collaborator of the worst kind? So you think it was a good idea to let the people of Hungary and Austria in the 1956, the Shies/Kurd in 1991, thoses in Tiananmen Square get massacred? So all those involved wit
The sad thing is, by the time 2008 rolls around people will be so sick of the Democrat's obstruction tactics, they will jump at anybody (with a name from their party) that will bring them back to the good old days. Hillary is trying to keep her hands clean. Look to a few good compromises and ideas coming from her camp with regards with dealing with the Republicans in the next few years. If she can distance herself from Kennedy, Kerry, and
Sence I'm still in service I will just keep this down to giving a fact. The US Army trashed out the quota system in the 90s and replaced it with a goals system. The goal system does not require that the numbers be met.
I did read the Article. It's just another attempt to dig up something that is not there. The writers of this article "The New York Observer" and MediaMatters.org are both a bunch of well known left wing hatchet jobs with no credibility. They take hear say, distant rumor for facts and make surveys/polls with loaded questions that screw even the simplest things to look the way they are not. They both are about as believable as the Inquirer (at least
A perfect example of a lawsuit that this would stop: Two years ago a couple was married and held the wedding reception in a Reno Nevada Casino. Unfortunately 16 people ordered the under prepared fish and got food poisoning. No one died, but the entire 16 guest was quickly sent to the hospital. A lawyer quickly jumped on this poor event. He got ten of the 16 guest to join the lawsuit. But Nevada's recently elected Judges and laws a
The only place you could have found your answers was JohnKerry.com . The man had at least three debates to say something about "My plan", but only continued to repeat "but My plan". I think people was starving for him to say something about "My plan". I also listened to some of his speechs and could
Oh My God..... a conservative in the White House Press Corp!!!!!! Bring out the pitch forks, we can't have that. It shows how far left the media has gotten when the White House has to sneak one into it's own briefings. Heheheheheh..... (darn no faces anymore)
Great Article: Zieinobia I hope for the best for you and your country. It is good to see the spark for free will in your writings. The stories of Lebanon before the Civil War has always made me wish I could have seen it. But from what I have heard, your country is well on to the road of recovery. I am planning to visit the Middle East in the next five years, and Lebanon is one of my must see locations. While the murd
A. What is the year of your birth? 1970 B. What state do you live in? Nevada C. Which presidential candidate did you vote for in each election over the course of your life? 1988- Bush #1 (because it looked like a good idea to stay the course) 1992- Perot 1996- Dole (would have voted for Clinton, but him and his wife personally cost me my dream job, long story.) 2000- Bush (could not bring myself to elect another
I just wish they would cut the real useless programs like the endowment for the arts and NPR. If people want to see art and liberal Radio, make them pay. Don't get me wrong, I'm a big supporter of the local acting Theaters and do own a few pieces of art (not a velvet Elvis). But all the Arts are locally paid for here. Only $55,000 went to my state out of t
If John Kerry would have won our election in Nov, and then the elections were held in Iraq on Jan 30.....and the exact same results came up...... I think that is a loaded question. Good but loaded. It should have also asked “If the elections would have been held”. John Kerry repeatedly stated that el
Just to add one more thing on to Daiwa's statement. The US has already built a safety net to prevent a Shiite take over of the New Iraqi Constitution. Both the Kurds and the Sunni delegates has the power to Veto parts of the constitution. i.e. any none secular parts (something the Kurds have already said they would). Also the leader of that Shiite group that COL Gene referring to in the original post, has made the building of a Secul

In a Bush v. Lieberman contest I would have voted for Lieberman. Same here. I really wondered in dismay why/how the Democrats stampeded to Kerry. I was thinking "Don't they know this man's history?". But none of his opponents attacked him on his Anti-War
Not doubting you as I plain just dont know, but do you have some links I can read? I find your thesis to be very ironic! And perhaps very stupid of republicans back then. I have no problem with your doubt, every thing you read today needs to be taken with a grain of salt. I am taking History
The most interesting historical fact is that originally the SS program was billed as a private account system by President Roosevelt. But because of the Republican stacked Supreme court had repeatedly shot down other progressive reform Acts, as unconstitutional, Roosevelt had to change to a much easier pay as you go tax system. A private account was one of the Republicans big complaints in 1932-40 about Government interfering too much in Private fina
I dunno, I thought the point of the whole mess was that the combatants weren't due US Constitutional protection, since they aren't citizens of the US. Does this mean everyone in the world, no matter where they are, are protected by US Law? That seems like a huge can of worms to open. I guess this means
