| America's uncontrollable war machine
That is because they CAN'T LEGALLY OUTSOURCE Military items because they are considered NATIONAL SECURITY and paid for by your friends in the FEDERAL GOV'T. Otherwise, they would to save a buck by sending it to China! You could make book on that on. Maybe that's why they OVERPAY by thousands of dollars.....to make up the difference. Actually, the movie Charlie Wilson's War explains that discrepancy fairly well! .
A New Tack for the DREAM Act
The military gets to meet quota numbers based on recruitment of undocumented enlistees. These undocumented people are for all intentional puposes upstanding citizens. Yet these people are not full players in the system, at no fault of their own. It’s not as if serving in the military or completing two years of college is some big "loop hole" to US citizenship. Just look at the statistics. The average US citizen, cannot/would not be able to say they meet those requirements. For the revitalization of an aging(babyboomer)population and for national security, the DREAM Act must become a reality. Lily E. Espinoza, Director, EOPS at CA Community College, at 1:45 pm EDT on July 19, 2007 .
Big Blue hero Lawrence Tynes kicks up cause for jailed brother
It makes him more of a celebrity than he already he is. The older brother? He has become a celebrity now himself, prison celebrity because of the field goal Lawrence made against the Packers. By the time Lawrence got back to New Jersey, Mark Tynes was already getting his first interview requests. Before the week was out, HBO wanted to come interview him. Same story, different worlds. One of them inside a prison with 50-foot high, gray cement walls, surrounded by a chain-linked fence wrapped in barbed wire. The other at the most famous sports event we have. .
