They said, a frog would not bump his rear if he had wings. But they said does not put it in the story does it. He needs take his position in line.

Yes, I’m proud, but “Pops” stands for “Parachutist Over Phorty” and I’m “mom.”

At least my public school taught me how to proofread.

The military is great training and experience for private sector success. Your husband sounds like a hard worker. Perhaps he should seek a challenging position in a corporation where he could increase his income and have more time for his kids.

During this time of great budgetary strain, on the Federal Government, it may be necessary to turn more in the military out to compete in the private sector.

As I’m sure you’re aware, the defense budget is a huge and ever growing portion of the national debt. It WILL have
to be cut substantially to avoid a national insolvency.

I know that our military leaders love our country and want to do their part to keep it from going bankrupt.

........ wouldn’t you agree?

During this time of great budgetary strain, on the Federal Government, it may be necessary to reduce earned benefits and retirement pay for our veterans.

As I’m sure you’re aware, the defense budget is a huge and ever growing portion of the national debt. It WILL have
to be cut substantially to avoid a national insolvency

I know that our military retirees love our country [they served her afterall] and want to do their part to keep it from going bankrupt.

...wouldn’t you agree?

I’ve observed master’s-prepared graduates of online universities who cannot function in the workplace. University of Phoenix grads were the majority.

I've seen the same with people who claimed traditional college degrees. Were their degrees fake? I don't know.

Look at the President. Columbia and Harvard -- think he's cutting it?

A smart enough kid can get by in pubskewl, but the socialism is to gag a maggot.

A neighbor family is homeschooling, I think. Six kids, I think, and I sympathize with their not wanting to subject them to Houston schools, which are a bunch of reverse-racism academies from what I've heard. If you don't want your kids to grow up racist, better to keep them at home, or go live in the suburbs.

Tier 1 students are those who graduate from a traditional high school, while Tier 2 students are those with alternative credentials, like a home school diploma, a GED or a diploma from a correspondence, Internet or distance-learning program.

Tier 1 students are ones who have had the opportunity to be properly indoctrinated into a liberal-globalist world view, while tier 2 students just might be Christian patriots clinging to their guns and religion...

No, I think he’s a fraud. The UP grads were within the scope of my experience. You can take that for what it’s worth, or leave it. I did not intend to offend anyone.
An education is worth what you’ve put into it. I found the UP grads unable to function within their job descriptions. I’m sure there are many capable UP grads. However, I found many capable people without a master’s degree from any institution.

I didn’t mean to offend anyone. Within the scope of my experience, the online-prepared master’s grads were unable to perform as well as the traditionally-educated grads.

I served for over 30 years it is best to see how things play out. I have been to the briefs if you join you are required to leave your morals at the gate to basic training. The briefed started with we understand some Christian do not approve of the gay lifestyle “we are sensitive”. It was followed this is the law accept it or get out when your contract expires. There are gay Generals male and female when do you think gays will quit?

My Son Elliot Harrold, from Istachatta (34636), has this press release (http://www.usafns.com/show-msg.shtml?state=fl&msg=18426) about his completing the USAF Basic Military Training. An item of note is that Elliot Graduated “Home School.” It took him a year to jump through all the hoops because he did not have a traditional HS Diploma. He was one of less than 3% accepted into the USAF that did not have a traditional HS diploma. That is interesting, and maybe news of this will motivate other non-traditional HS graduates not to give up trying to get in the USAF because it is possible. It might take a year though!

Elliot is currently training as a hydraulics specialist to work on fighters and other aircraft, and he is doing extremely well and I am very proud of him.

Best regards,
