up here in Canada we keep our forces low in number...40 or 50 and we only send them out after the fighting is over....that is if our equipment works........

maybe letting 16 year olds go to the army is not such a bad idea . we have like 100s of us die each year. personally we should send ever one throw basic training. Did you know that the number one killer in the USA is fatness pretty sad

They are scheduling a series of breakfast meetings to discuss the problem. Five flavors of muffins, eighteen types of donuts, bearclaws, creampuffs, waffles with butter and syrup, corned beef hash, and Girlscout cookies will be served with chocolate milk.

Martha is comic relief in a sometimes depressing world. She lies when the truth would serve better. Witch.

Sorry, I really, really do try not to rise to this kind of comment, but sometimes I just can't help myself.

Exactly what 'world' are you referring to? The only 'world' that regards the United States as possessing moral leadership is... the narrow, navel-gazing 'world' of the United States itself.

Moral leadership? It's never smelled like that to the rest of us.
