Veterans Day: our quietest holiday

Veterans Day: our quietest holiday

You are technically, and ultimately right,but; Sorry, it is not a soldier's job to interpret the constitution in his orders. The meaning of lawful orders is spelled out in the military regulations and Uniform Code of Military Justice. A test of your theory was just made by Army Lt.Ehren K. Watada. "Military Justice" left the water very muddy. I'm sure nobody is satisfied with that result.  (1 hr ago | post #31)

Is the U.S. News Media Failing to Do Its Job on Climate Change?

Deny, deny, deny. Yet, the proto-scientific superstition of the oil companies is taking hold. What do you really think is the message of the US media? Shut up, all is ok, blame someone else, look at these tits, buy, buy, buy, consume like there is no tomorrow. There is no problem, no problem, listen to big brother, he will take care of you.  (2 hrs ago | post #8)

Take yourself. We are under the thumb of powerful multi-national corporations. We have been numbered and sold; not to the government; but to commerce. You are not a person, you are a consumption unit. I guess Rush didn't tell you about that.  (2 hrs ago | post #7)

Private Health Insurance the "Worst Product in American History...

What you say is normal, conventional wisdom. But, in these troubles times, the GOP has been taken over by a gang of un-American crazies. The real republicans have been pushed out by lying neo-conservatives and Satanist 'religious rightists.' Ther is no conventional wisdom for a party that only saya NO; and acts and votes against the National Interest, and the people.  (2 hrs ago | post #325)

Mistaken for hiding dog, gator bites Pasco man's hand

Aren't they pretty? When I was a kid, I could get the squirls to eat walnuts out of my hand. On Fire Island, and on Assateaque, you can hand feed the wild deer and ponies. (Not that you should.) What did you feed your Coral Snake?  (3 hrs ago | post #13)

Editor Statement

Most Americans are derelict in their duty to be informed. I commend most TOPIX members, who are less derelict. The US soldiers who died for our freedom over three centuries deserve better than an unengaged electorate.
