In Reply to: I read your "document". Very legal-looking and all, - except for one glaring thing:
but I picked up the phone and asked the district this was filed in..... duh?
This is not rocket science. If you don't wanna know the truth, you won't look for it.
Wasting my time here.

Not really sure what you mean by difficult...
maybe illegal aliens should have a class for Americans. They seem to be able to get on all the programs, no problem. The SCHIP program for children for one. That is one of the loopholes in the present bill that all the hooplah is about...that Bush asked to be taken out of the bill before it was sent to him. He and the Republicans in Congress also asked that the Democrats vote to extend the program for 6 months to a year as it exists now and look into a better plan for renewing and re-funding. But the Democrats refused. Now what in the world would it have hurt to leave it as is for 6 months and work out a plan so that the expansion of the program would expand to take in American citizens vs illegals, and make sure that the correct income requirements were enforced? Why is that such a bad thing?
I I find it difficult to take anything that ..
O'Reilly says to heart. His demeanor is the true definition of a blowhard bully. I tend to tune out when people are screaming at me or really dishing out the hate stuff. Having said that, I do not believe that the Marine thing is about **good** or **bad** apples. War is an unnatural state. War without end is even worse. I don't know any details - none of us do - but in a setting where soldiers are deployed and redeployed and redeployed over and over in a hostile tribal environment where they do not know who is friend or foe, this tragedy does not come as a surprise. I certainly don't condone this, no one would, but I understand how it could happen and I believe that if it did happen that those involved are not necessarily **bad apples.** Everyone keeps saying that 99.9% of the military are exemplary soldiers. I am not so sure that those involved are not as well. Gross mismanagement of the troops, a complete lack of understanding of the tribal nature of Iraq, in other words, a failure from the Pentagon on down would be the culprit in my opinion. These are the people who should be held accountable but that, of course, will not happen. A few very low-on-the-totem-pole soldiers will be the scapegoats in this and generals and civil service Pentagon folks will just walk away. I am still waiting for the dogs from Abu Ghraib to be indicted. That is just about how inept and ridiculous the management of the war has been. As far as Murtha goes...I believe he truly believes what he says and is extremely concerned about the troops themselves, the real people fighting on the real ground in real Iraq. I think he speaks from his heart and could care less about payback or whatever. I think that he is frustrated and angry and feeling helpless as many of us are over a situation that has good outcome possible.
Difficult to tell, Starcat
Your post was not very clear - glad you are not anti-French
I find it difficult
to believe so many of you really feel Obama is just pretending to care about people and is some sort of terrorist. Do you really believe that or just trying to keep things stirred up?
It is so unbecoming.
why do you find that so difficult?
Do you honestly believe he has your best interests at heart? Do you honestly feel totally safe when you see his past associations and review his record? I don't find that unbecoming; I find it scary....that so many people can be taken in and ignore so much that should be questioned and should make them nervous. Why is the rest of the world so invested in seeing him as the next president? I don't think it's because they want what is best for the US, do you???
Agree, you'd think as difficult as our job
is to learn that MTs would actually have some brains and common sense, but there are some real whackjobs on here lately!
Why they made it so difficult is
beyond me. Unless they made it difficult on purpose so it would be easier for people to "make mistakes." I just don't get it.
Is it too difficult for you to read
the links I provided regarding copyright law? Or, is it simply a matter of wanting to argue? I don't really care what you posted, I provided links for everyone's benefit instead of posturing.
I find it difficult to tolerate stupidity.
It's very difficult to qualify for welfare these days. It is the rich getting
