Achilles, I looked into this martial law being unconstituional. Here is what I found. Article 1, Section 9 states, "The privilege of the Writ of Habeas Corpus shall not be suspended, unless when in Cases of Rebellion or Invasion the public Safety may require it." Habeas corpus is a concept of...

It matters because it is better to die FOR something than OF something. People are proud of service because they made a choice. They chose to be ready to die FOR something, rather than OF something.

And those that survive I will see. Sometimes I wish that the gunshot wound to the spine would have killed them. But, it didn't so now they are here with me and the rest of my nurses. It is sad to see a 20 something year old in a wheelchair, and all that comes with lack of mobility. I feel for...

I know the oath. I was in St. Louis when I took it. I once lost all ten of my toenails on a 25mile road march. The last ten miles, I recited that oath in my head. When I watched my toenails go black, and as I pulled them off, one by one. I quietly remembered why I did this. George Bush has...

Achilles, first you say that you are surprised at my Presidential fealty, then you admit, one post later that the military ASSUMES defence of the constitution and loyalty to the president to be synonymous(sp) at all times. Contrary to popular belief, the military is not a bunch of mindless...

Oh, a moonbat. I might as well be talking to someone with dementia. Oh wait, I am...well, I was.

This kind of thinking is reason soldiers came home from Vietnam and were spat on and called baby killers. The military DOES NOT LEGISLATE, if the democracy goes wrong YOU THE PEOPLE, whom we serve via the commander in chief WHOM YOU ELECTED are the reason. If the people lose their government...

So are you telling that the Blue Angels can't THINK??? You are trying to say the submariners can't THINK??? There are lot of kids who are REJECTED by the military because they could not pass the ASVAB Soldiers can't think:D :D :eek:

What ship was your brother on?

If the military turns on it's elected government, then the military BECOMES the government. If the Navy, turns against the government, and the other branches do not we may have civil war. The job of the military will be to help hold this nation together in the event of a catastrophic...

I rely on charts. Charts cannot lie. The price is what the price is. If it is rising, on volume, that is always positive. If it is rising on less volume than it is falling, that is always negative. If there is no volume, then look at range.

But see, here's the thing.....THEY WERE WILLING. They VOLUTEERED(most of them) TO PUT THEMSELVES IN HARMS WAY. If America had not had the WILLING men and women to fight for her during the Revolution, Civil war, War of 1812, Spanish American War, WWI and WWII, Korea, Vietnam, Panama, Gulf I...

Hydro, If were not for the US armed forces you would not be enjoying the life you live, no matter where you live. The US, for better or for worse is the current major deterent for anarchy. Imagine a world without a clear leader. Power abhors a vacuum. So, feel free to be an armchair...

Just curious as to how many of these blowhards on ET actually DID anything for their country. I see that not many here have. I have noticed that the amount of talk is inversely proportional to the amount of deeds :D

Army, 91C.

AAA, El Hajj Malik El-Shabazz was assasinated when he recognized that factions and fragmentation was counter-productive. MLK was assasinated after he realized that it is not about race, it's about CLASS. JFK was assasinated when he had intentions to eliminate fiat currency. RFK was...

Does this control for the devaluation of the dollar?

In fact, do not be surprised if selected deligates will begin to chant, or hold up signs. Obama/Clinton. Early speakers will make innuendo, later speakers will be more blunt. Then, under "peer pressure", Bill Clinton, or maybe Al Gore, or maybe Howard Dean, will bring the two up, they will...

It's already going to the convention. Obama will not have enough deligates to clinch, and Hillary is not going to quit. If Obama has the popular vote, and Hillary becomes the nominee, it will be the death of the democratic party as we know it. The only thing that can save the dems is the...

Here is my problem with this whole raid. 400 children were taken out. There some villages in my state with populations smaller than that. Now, suppose someone makes an allegation of a situation with a child. Then, the government rolls in with tanks and humvees and takes ALL of the...
