No GI bill for you.

Yeah?

Where are the "missing" billions in Iraq? Where's the f'n ACCOUNTABLILTY?
Who was fired for the "faulty intelligence" that led us into Iraq? Where's the ACCOUNTABILITY?

Did you miss the part where Reagan INCREASED the size of the Federal Govt.......just like GWB did ONCE AGAIN? Sounds like BIG GOVERNMENT to me.

And you goats who think the cold war is over may want to check again. Same game, a couple different players, and THIS time it's the "war on terra". Still costing us billions, though. Funny how that wroks.

What boogie man is everyone going to be afraid of next time, so we can ignore what a p!ss poor job Republicans and Democrats do?

I see it now - misread it the first time. Sadly, neither party stands for anything except greed anymore.

Agreed one hundred percent Dan S but it is the lesser of two evils for me. Bush was not a good republican and spent way more than he should have. Seems to be the way our country works these days....Those in power just take and take and take. Spend for there own and do no good. I dont have my head in the sand about it. The fear mongering is B.S. as well. But again, lesser(hopefully) of the two evils. And with the differences in Obama and McCain it is clear enough who I agree with. Will McCain do what he says.....They never do but the fear of Obama actually do half he says causes me to back McCain.

That's the problem, doc. It's been that way as long as I can remember.

There has to be a way to put an end to that.

300 million Americans, and the best two we can run are McCain and Obama? Reminds of the last trip on the merry-go-round with GWB and Kerry......or GWB and Gore. Can we NOT get good candidates on the ballot?

Create spending limits on campaigns, a government fund to supply ordinary citizens matching funds for a run at the presidency, and absolutely no contributions from corporate entities. Oh, I guess that would make things a little too fair for some people.

Nope. I didn't serve, so I don't qualify. The old man did. And no, he didn't use it either. The military will give you a perfectly good education and some of the best training available in this country. Turns out it was good enough to get a white collar/management job with good pay and benefits.

Thanks Uncle Sam!

That's funny. I'm positive my Sherry's ex husband worked his way up in military rank by sucking dick. No training necessary.

No president gets a good review from the public. As long as I have lived, there is always some opposition to whoever is in the whitehouse. Its my belief that puppets are operated by strings. The president is nothing more than the puppet. They are pulled on by many strings of influence (parties, lobbiest, corporate entities, military generals, personal interests, and the PUBLIC...............etc). I dont think we have any idea of what it is like to have the job of president of the United States. There is no way that any of us would do any better job in the public eye. I believe that we have our own strings that we are pulled by and influences our opinion of the government (media, peers, hype, BB posts). If we keep scaring ourselves into thinking sh!t is f@cked up..........................then it will be f@cked up.

As far as the GI bill. That thing is great. For a $1200 dollar investment I got a masters degree for about half the cost as regular joe/josephine would have.

One word Iran, but asshat Obama was quoted as saying that Iran was a small country and not a threat...f'n Dillweed! Then of course changed that the next day to " Iran is a grave threat " he has appeaser written all over him and will be exposed during the general election.

J7,

You need to stop injecting reason and logic into arguments. That is just plain unfair.

Most polititians if given a choice between doing what is best for their party or best for the country will pick their party.

Dammit Jerry, now you're doing it!

Whatever Andy. I just don't like ANY candidate who wants to take away my second amendment rights. The Constitution isn't broken and doesn't need liberal fixing.

Fixed that typo for you.

Oh all right Dan. GW did crap on it a bunch too.

None of it could have happened without Congress' help.

It's time for a switch to parliament - and no, not George Clinton and P-Funk

They have run, but they usually arent good looking enough, good enough liars and I think, in the case of Steve Forbes and p e r h a p s.... Mitt Romney, they are smart savy, successful, and they dont NEED to be president.

if ya throw in Bootsy, your got a deal..............................
