You're= The contraction of "You" and "Are". Ex: You're a good American.

Your= Shows possession. Ex: Your dog is very large.

Yeag,
My company makes components for the TOW missile, for our Nuclear Missiles both land and sea based, and many other DOD demanded products, and I will NOT equate what I do with serving in the military.

It's a JOB behind a DESK, period. Nothing more and nothing less. I do take pride in the products we produce, but that pride is in both our Military and Civilian products.

I think that if one of the people you work with gave you an order to kill someone or risk your life, you are legally entitled to tell him to go **** himself...hard. Someone who serves in the military doesn't have that choice, under the law.

And the difference between the two situations is like night and day.

Heck, I could say the same thing about conservatives.

I think you're all crazy, D or R.

thats a legitimate opinion thrawn.

stringer, are you just a manufacturer/supplier then? no contact with uniformed services, just build a product and have UPS deliver it? Do you have to review your product with the military, make changes per military contract, then go to where the military uses your product and review how what you make is maintained and used....interacting in a very professional manner with your military counterparts?.......or do you just sit at a desk?

I think we have two very different jobs, I appreciate how you view your job though, and thanks.

Amen.

Which why I toss my vote (I)ndependent. The DC crime families have proven too corrupt for my support. We wont get one iota of real change sending the same recycled party purchased losers to office.

78% polled (on CNN) believe the government is broken, that congress as a whole blows fat chunks.. just imagine if the clones didn't, often illegally, keep non robot Independants off the ballots... this country just might get out of the toilet.

It would only take a handful of (I)ndependents too, 20 or 30 seats, just enough to screw up the status quo the clones have lavished themselves in.

I'd almost like to see a complete reworking of our system... 3 Senate seats per state... 1 guaranteed to a Dem, 1 guaranteed to a Republican, 1 guaranteed to an Independent... Have each run against a number of people in their party/affiliation and let all state citizens vote for each seat... Give each candidate a set dollar amount for their campaign and don't allow them to go a penny over.

That way you could still vote for what "kind" of Republican or Democrat or Independent gets the office, be it extremist or moderate, but at the same time we might get a few more ideas in office instead of "my party says this, which is naturally superior to whatever your party has to say" and since candidates would only be running against those in their own party, but be voted for by all citizens of the state regardless of the citizen's party affiliation, they wouldn't have to tote the party line to get their party's primary win and have a shot at being elected... They'd have to tote what their constituents believed in... Imagine that, eh?

Might as well toss ur vote into the crapper and save the gas ...
do you think you are "sending a message" by voting "I" or are just truly wasting your vote. IMO, by voting Independent in NOv, you are voting for no one and have zero effect on the vote outcome..

When the independent has enough money and charisma, and a good platform, it can get pretty darn close... Bull Moose, anyone?

See, people like you are normally right in what you just said. Unfortunately, it is also people like you who refuse to take a gamble that keeps the Independents out of office when they truly have a chance.

Anyway, I figure just showing up to the ballot is wasting your vote if you intend to vote Republican or Democrat these days... The world will not end if a Democrat gets in office... We will not turn into Nazi Germany if a Republican is elected.

We'll pretty much be in the same boat, in the same pond, that we are in now, forever. And that pond's getting pretty stagnant.

If there was ever a truly centrist party that believed in considering both sides of an argument before making a decision, I'd vote for it in a heartbeat assuming they could get even 10% of the votes. Because quite frankly many liberals make me sick, but so do many Republicans. I find it really amusing how members from both sides think they're that much different or better then the other.
