Bravo! So glad to know....but I already knew...that we still have some citizens who put their country before themselves.

Those who are in very good physical shape hide it well. I'd rate her right up there. Just because you might not have looked the same during pregnancy #5, doesn't mean she couldn't have! That's why I stopped at one! LOL! I knew my limits. ;-)

"What Sen. Obama lacks in foreign political experience, Sen. Joe Biden more than makes up for, anyway.

There are a lot of successful people in this country with a bachelors degree or less.

I've been there. I personally know and work with many people who have been there or who have spouses there (Iraq/Afghanistan). I don't know anyone who does not support what we are accomplishing.

I also know that those who work in "finance" and other such rear support roles are located in very large and very well protected areas set up as small cities complete with recreation, churches, Burger Kinds, McDonalds, Taco Bell, banks, shopping, internet cafe's etc.....being well fed is certainly not an issue.

They are away from their families and this is hard of course. But living in the trenches or conditions anywhere near resembling those of Vietnam or WWII? Not even close.

Are there some jobs/activities that are more dangerous or physically challenging? Yes. But it's not the majority of them.

Nope, you're probably a lot smarter than a lot of people you know.

I don't know what experience you're counting, but his 8 years in the IL senate, doing a LOT of good work for that state, certainly qualify.

I think very highly of both of the these women.

You do realize your comments comparing the two are much more appropriate when comparing the two presidential nominees now don't you?
