One of the things that gets me is, there seems to be no POINT to civil disobedience if you aren't willing to pay a penalty to prove your point. But what better machine to rage against than one who will not seek retribution? Better yet, one that totally validates your efforts and refuses to hold you

But cant we get the same stuff with chemicals? ANd is not Torture unreliable? Chemicals are not inhumane, and are not disallowed by this. Yes, I agree. Chemicals are a much more humane way of extracting information from terrorists than torturing them. I honestly don't see why the administration (Cheney especially) has had a problem forswearin

Yep, that was an exceptional story. It hits on multiple levels, including the 9th CC thing as well as the perceived "War on Christmas" brouhaha... Good times, good times.

This is kind of a re-rant, but with new, updated information. Especially since the 'Save Tookie' movement brought out all the usual suspects in regards to the celebrity activists. Think of it as a revised edition! I cannot stand these celebrities who think that their opinions on social issues matter. Mike Farrell goes on NPR and a speaking tour to

Awesome awesome awesome. How beautiful that al-Jazeera, the mouthpiece of radicalism, is being swept away by democracy and free speech... Did I say "awesome"? 'Cause that is how I feel. Bring on the elections.

Yeah, but my point is that had your hubby been able to go on interviews, look for work outside the Killeen metro area, miss work to do this stuff... ...you wouldn't have to be doing what you're doing.

Because she will clearly do anything to further her agenda. Y'know, at first I thought her motives were pure. Later on, I honestly thought she was an innocent, being used by the left to further their agenda. Well (not really) recently, I have realized that she is a ridiculous, unbelievable liar who cannot stay out of the limelight. Too bad. I'm sure her son was a good guy. Too bad his mom was psycho.

I feel for my brothers back in Texas. Especially SPC Nobody Special and other non-JUsers, who got out of the Army at roughly the same time that I did and have found little to no success in post-Army life.

I like everyone's advice, except the 600 calories per day. Since you're not a registered user, I can't personally address you. But 600 calories is unhealthy and I'm not willing to do it. My attitude toward dieting is that I need to burn more than I take in. So cut down on the donuts, up the exercise. Simple, right?

Grey: It is frankly amazing how often an operator (usually a U.S. soldier, sailor, airman, or marine) will hear things like 'We will place the anthrax booby trap 2 kilometers from the police station in Basra and the sarin gas trap under the bridge at 2 pm tomorrow.' when they know that they will never have to prove it

Well, I have been a member of a gym here at the Fort for two months or so now. I joined a gym in order to keep my weight down. I knew that without mandatory exercise daily that it would be tough to keep my weight at a manageable level. My job doesn't let me get up and move all that often. I am kinda chair-bound. I am running and doing the elliptical train
