I brought them all together
YEA, he sure did. Barry is claiming to have been the one that brought all the people together to work out the tax extensions. That is about as true as the moon split open in halves, and yellow- blue men started pouring out, and realesed oxygen in the atmosphere, and now there is a city on the moon. Look like they play both sides of fence to get votes back. UGG. I would say something, but being banned from the board isn't worth it. He does not know that the tax extensions will be defeated, and better ones be voted on the 1st 2 weeks in January. He even brought Cigar man in to help him. Wonder if he still smokes them. I'd say yes, as he doesn't look so good. He sure is hanging on some good looking secretary for sure though. Bet hillary likes that. 'Now I did not have sex with that lady, until you define what sex is, it is'!!!. I just know, man, it is. There are people out there that believes he will be re-elected in '12. Hope they stay away from me, as the dope they are on, may be a new type that just the smoke has to touch you, and your hooked, and you stay out of your mind for a week or so. Frightening it is. Believe barry will take credit for anything. Just a poor excuse I know that. Thank you all you buggers. Semper Fi, and READY-APP.
just my opinion
maybe this ain't the right place,but I think you should have had to serve in the military in order to hold public office, 'specially POTUS. course I always thought it would be better if all officers in the military had to be NCOs 1st !:p

Just My Opinion
I do so agree with you Lurch. They need the law to apply when a kid graduated from high school. 2 years in which-ever Service desired, BUT it is to be a MUST that they do. No more of this, yea, huh, na, what,rain on you crap garbage. They should have to learn it, and stay in, even if its in the Brig, for the full 2 years. Then it would be a must for public office, even being mayor, or chief water boy. No there are no guts for it. They certainly do it in Israel for sure. Everyone, even little girls. I believe it would cut down on Illegals a whole bunch. Before they could get citizenship, 4 years in the U.S, Marine Corps, Minimum. Still say, No congress has no guts to mandate such a thing.
Brothers
I never did think they should of stop the draft (the way it was) maybe some changes was needed so ALL would go at some point. So many young people don't know what they want to do or maybe they don't have the money or grades to go . At least everyone would have some idea what our Country is about and know what it means to be Free.. " To Be Free Cost many peoples Lives" Our Kids and ALL who comes here needs to know that, and those RIGHTS they talk about also COST dearly. God Bless You ALL JJ

JJ, I feel they should get the graduation paper in their hand, and have to get on that Bus the very next day for 2-4 years in which ever service they are put in. They should have no choice. Wether they have the money or not, didn't cost me a penney to go, as it was paid for. I quit school so didn't have the grades, got them later. and I did learn to respect people, myself, and our Country. Thats why they should have to go. Mandatory, wether they like it or not. If they don't go, deportation to the coldest part of the world. Period wether they like it or not. Thats what I'd have the guts to make them do. Period. Semper Fi, and READY-APP.

:(With the face of the DI and the voice of GOD They do need something to Think about,Except what party they want to go get in trouble at. I always Love that one quote" LOVE IT OR LEAVE IT" Still sounds good today.:D
l.i.o.l.a.
If I was in charge as said before, they wouldn't have to worry about a party until they were civilian again. That includes the ones their daddies had play football so they could get a knee injury, and not have to go to the service. I know 4 that did it so they wouldn't be able to pass the physical. Its a small town. Not only were their dads cowards, they are too. Semper Fi, and READY-APP.
Draft ?
maybe, but I do think there should be a mandentory gov service ! if they're to stupid or lazy or unmotivated /undependable they could pick up trash along the hwy or do road labor work at minimum pay and three hots & a flop ! still should have had to been in the military to hold office or vote . you'd see a big difference in one generation ! 😀 sf Ace & JJ & other Marines. kc

Re: Attack/war on the usa my opinion
I am not sure I understand how this new page works or even where I am.
I HAVEN'T POSTED IN A WHILE BEEN RATHER BUSY WITH LOTS OF STUFF AROUND HERE AND CHRISTMAS; I DID TRY LOGGING IN A FEW TIMES BEFORE THIS ENTIRE THING GOT CHANGED BUT COULDN'T GET IN FOR SOME REASON.
NOT SURE HOW THIS WORKS; BUT I LIKED THE OLD LOOK BETTER.
LOTS GOING ON WITH THE MUSLIMS IN EUROPE, MIDDLE EAST AND INSIDE THE USA; BUT I WAS SORTA BUSY DOING THE CHRISTMAS THING.
I TRIED LOGGING IN A FEW TIMES TO POST A CHRISTMAS CARD TO YOU ALL.
DIDN'T WORK; COULDN'T GET IN.
SO, MERRY CHRISTMAS & HAU'OLE MAKAHIKI HOU! (HAPPY NEW YEAR)

Re: Attack/war on the usa my opinion
Its the thought that counts Doc. Was getting a bit concerned for sure. The muslums are fighting each other now. Thats good. Hope the GOP gets smart and makes them do right. Karzai is mumbling out his ears, but other than that they are just as messed up as they ever were. They are worried about where the money will come from when ours dries up. Very soon I hope.

Re: Attack/war on the usa my opinion-- other countries borders
I am glad our DHS boss is inspecting other countries borders. Just wish we could get her to inspect, and do something about OURS. We do not need to be the worlds police man, when we can't even police our own, and take care of our own. When that is taken care of, then help others, but you have to help yourself First, to be able to help others. Enough is enough. Semper Fi, and READY-APP.
Old Geezers' reflection:
Been trying to keep track of happenings around the world and the pirates got my attention and kept it! Brought to mind - "from the halls of Montezuma, and to the shores of Tripoli", - and now the pirates of Mogadishu that killed 4 Americans and at the last count, about 600+ prisoners. And then I see the Marine Corps getting bogged down in wars that the Army was trained to do, - ours was to knock down the doors and hold the door open for at least 6 months, until the army could come in. Many can see us doing army type work, not that we can't do it (we need the combat experience) and then the Corps asking for more expensive equipment to keep us up there with the big boys, - pretty soon they are going to see that the USA doesn't need another expensive type army unit and will start thinking again that the Corps needs to be done away with!:confused:
The Corps should be planning for a combat landing onto the "shores of Mogadishu" and straightening out their crap, and keep doing what we were trained to do, with great thought and planning, and not be restricted in the use of our combat equipment (artillery, Tanks, and Air assets). A lot, lot, lot should be done to keep the inhabitants from having to make a living from piracy. It would take time and keep "others" seeing that the Corps is doing what it is trained to do.:) Semper Fidelis
Re: Attack/war on the usa my opinion
Bunnie, if we do, there will be 3 wars we are fighting in at the same time. Let africa stop them, or the United Nations. I don't believe we need to do it. I hope not anyway. Semper Fi, and READY-APP.
Re: Attack/war on the usa my opinion
Hey! Here is a novel Idea
Don't go where the Pirates are
Stupid is as stupid does.
Don't make your problem our problem
Re: Attack/war on the usa my opinion
Jardo, that sounds like a winner to me. Keep all the civillians out, and blow away the pirates. The whole area could be a free fire zone. Semper Fi, and READY-APP.

:eek:You been reading my notes or are others out there seeing what seems to be coming by way of the back door? That would be for the Country to disband a certain service ( not to mention) so they Congress can save for THEIR retirements. Then Tax
those that have put in Money and time Plus above ALL their Lives. Just thoughts!:(
Re: Attack/war on the usa my opinion-attack mogidushu
Bunnie, I agree with you, and say we should put an amphibious landing on mogidshu and clean them out, instead of libya. I'd sink all their skifs, up to the mother boats. Never happen though. Semper Fi, and READY-APP.

You can't depend on Africa to do anything!! They are killing themselves off with too many dictators, corrupt politicians, and greedy persons that want to be "kings"! If we would always "let some one else do it", it would never get done!!:mad:
Re: Attack/war on the usa my opinion
Bunnie, I was hoping the u.n. would do it, as most of them are musslums, and thought they would get a bunch of them killed off so as when we do have to start shooting them, there would be less of them. I understand your point though. Semper Fi, and READY-APP.
