November 3, 200421 yr Whats this all about? Well, since I'm the oldest and one of two brothers, me (and others) were sent a letter to fill out to register for the army (most of them got marines) If I don't sign it, consequences are taken..
November 3, 200421 yr Michael Moore on ABC... Fat ass McGee talking about how Ohio is theirs... What are these people's reasoning behind claiming Ohio will be democratic? Do they not know math or is there something we are all missing?
November 3, 200421 yr Haha, Fox still hasn't given California to Kerry. Rupert Murdoch must be at work.
November 3, 200421 yr In Wisconsin... Kerry 751,610 50% Bush 742,173 49% 53% of precincts in... I am putting my 5 key at work today... and my . too
November 3, 200421 yr Do they no know math or is there something we are all missing? Maybe, but I heard their really good at there English so maybe that makes up for it?
November 3, 200421 yr What are these people's reasoning behind claiming Ohio will be democratic? Do they no know math or is there something we are all missing? So much depends on the models they're using -- I'm not saying Ohio will go Dem, I have absolutely no idea -- but if the missing precincts are strongly Dem, it may be a fair prediction.
November 3, 200421 yr I just don't think this is cool. Don't ever tell someone to leave the country for f***ing politics. It really had nothing to do with politics, its just that registering for the draft is part of being and american and if you dont want to do it you can just move. Everyone has to do it so why should you be exempt.
November 3, 200421 yr Maybe, but I heard their really good at there English so maybe that makes up for it? "their really good?" "there english?"

Some Army recruiter is doing a hell of a job of scaring you into signing some s*** you shouldn't sign.
November 3, 200421 yr 41 pages and still going strong... I love this site. Am I the only one who sets it to display 40 posts per page? I'm at 16.
November 3, 200421 yr Am I the only one who sets it to display 40 posts per page? I'm at 16. Nah I do it too.
November 3, 200421 yr Am I the only one who sets it to display 40 posts per page? I'm at 16. I have it set at 20 or somethin. Its regularly set at 15. Im at page 31
November 3, 200421 yr Some Army recruiter is doing a hell of a job of scaring you into signing some s*** you shouldn't sign. Yeah, tell me about it. Over 3 million names have been referred by the Selective Service System to the Justice Department for possible prosecution for violation of the Military Selective Service Act (failure to register). 3 million. They have prosecuted 13 people since 1980. What are they going to do, build concentration camps? Your chances of being struck by lightning are better than your chances of being prosecuted for refusing to register. The 3 million men referred to the Justice Department are called 'hard core' resisters by Selective Service. They received 3 or 4 warning letters (bluffs) from the Selective Service and still blew them off. Millions more are in violation of the law for moving and not re-registering. This law has the highest rate of non-compliance since the prohibition of alcohol in the 1920s. Many young men register in the belief that it is their only way to get their student aid for college, but that is a fallacy. The Fund for Education and Training (FEAT) will give you money for college if you refuse to register. So don't register!

November 3, 200421 yr It really had nothing to do with politics, its just that registering for the draft is part of being and american and if you dont want to do it you can just move. Everyone has to do it so why should you be exempt. I wasn't exempt. I did not serve, but I signed up and I was willing. (My girlfriend was none too happy about my willingness, either.) I'm probably ineligible now (depending on the details of the draft). But if someone wants to eliminate the draft, or even if someone wants to turn the US socialist (and I would prefer even Bush to a socialist), you don't tell them to leave the country. These are legitimate opinions, that's the whole point of democracy.
November 3, 200421 yr "their really good?" "there english?" I didn't think I needed to use green... :rolly

But more like, "If you are afraid of being drafted, you could always go to Canada."
November 3, 200421 yr Holy s*** that's dirty! I am a dirty, immoral mang. I'm always looking for a loophole. s***, life is a loophole.
