Are you going to talk about (analyze) the upcoming elections in Poland along with the impact it will have in Poland and surrounding countries?
You've mentioned the "problem" with the homosexual population in the US military, and for lack of a better word I think the whole topic is GAY! How stupid is it for us to focus on whether a not a man is checking you out in the showers. I love how it only seems to be a problem for men, guys it will happen, men and women will look at you and see what they want to see, but does that automatically mean you have to react? Someone about 15-20 minutes ago called in about a war that he was in and how it was bad that gay men got to share showers with straight men, I love how he only mentions this now that it is a publicly recognized subject. First it was Native Americans, then African Americans, then women, now homosexuals, who comes next. Why do white men feel so socially superior?
Sending troops to the border is expensive to the taxpayer. It's time that the people who are responsible for illigal immigration pay for it. Like BP is being held responsible for their oil spill. Let's as a nation go after the cause of illegla immigration for a change. Those who employ illegal immigrants should be held accountable. Employers are the problem. Arizona is not arresting employers. Why not? When this actually happens then we won't need troops on our borders.
