And...email it to yourself should your computer ever go down...or if you’re AWAY from said computer...

I also save mine to a thumb drive. Easily carried in a pocket or purse.

Look, national service or community service is indeed a fine thing. The Jews in Israel have damn good reason for consscription, they are fighting for their survival.

Hussein’s vision is of the USA not fighting for freedom, but giving up its sovereignty for the “good of the world”.

You are right in theory...but as you said, in practice, this administration is a freakin’ danger. I do not trust them. Not a bit.

No. I don't wanna bet. Because I'll be one of those answering the knok on the door with a Remington 870 with 12 ga. deer slugs.
You missed the joke about the resistor schematic symbol, apparently.

The AR-15 I ordered can't get here soon enough. Do you think it will be Politically Incorrect to call the Obama Volunteer Corps "Brown Shirts"? I hear the King wants them to have the same budget as the Military.

I think Israel has mandatory service for it's young people. I like the idea of the discipline of military service which instills national pride.

It's called, "SURVIVAL!" The only way for Israel to exist is to ensure that everyone has the right to defend it and themselves against the enemies from without and within who constantly yearn to destroy it.

Why do you think they have so many aides? They’re the ones that read all this stuff and then explain it to their “boss.” I’m sure that because of the way these bills are worded it would be easy not to see all the nuances included.

Of course I have no proof but it seems logical to me. But what do I know about logic...I’m the one that assured my family that there was NO WAY BO would be elected. (sigh)

I thought this was dead in the water.

It was only introduced on March 9th. It has 25 co-sponsors and was voted out of the House Committee on Education and Labor on March 11th by a vote of 34 to 3. They've even got a Press Release on it and how wonderful it, and they, are, and a "Fact" Sheet too. That means quite a few supposed Republicans voted for it.

Heres the committee vote:

ROLL CALL #1 BILL: H.R. 1388 DATE: 3/11/2009

(It's a PDF file)

24 Dems voted for it (all of those who voted). 10 of 13 Republicans who voted, voted for it. The three who did not are Wilson, Kline and McClintock. 5 Democrats and 6 Republicans did not vote.

I don't think this is the sort of bill that will require 60 votes in the Senate, unless someone attempts a filabuster, It'll sail through the house like grass through a goose. I doubt the pubbies will "waste" political capital trying to stop it in the Senate, but stranger things have happened.

Kevin Bacon did a very good job in that movie...I don’t have a man-crush on him or anything, but he made a good Marine, as he did in A Few Good Men.

Then the RINOS should be voted out of office. If we don’t do it we are keeping the enemy on the inside. These guys/gals are worse than the MSM.
