It's worse than it would be if he was studying or working a regular job abroad because, if he really really wanted to, he could take a week off from school, come home, get things sorted out with the dog, and then go back without much penalty beyond the cost of airfare. Soldiers can't do that. But I agree it's not much…

The soldier being there is 0 reflection of what he thinks about the assignment. He is fulfilling a duty asked of him by our country (whether or not we personally like/agree with that duty). One he doesn't get to choose. A really shitty one. And we have no idea why he signed up to do so. Many many many of our soldiers…
No. A service is a thing offered or requested in exchange for something else. What you're arguing is being "of service." I don't know whether or not this decade of war was of service to the nation since for "national security" the people of the nation aren't being informed of it's leaderships motives. I'm almost…

I can't figure out why, if she's 19, she feels the need to be kidnapped when she is legally allowed to walk out of the house at any time. Of course, I've never wanted to plot a murder either, so maybe I'm just not getting it on a lot of levels.
Seriously I live here and I'm trying to see the fiscally responsible things the GOP is bringing to the table (IE: Getting Detroit out of bankruptcy, the so called 'Grand Bargain' and the bi-partisanship it represents....)
But seriously the stripping away of democracy (50% of african americans in the state of Michigan…
