Embassy security is not classified as an overseas military base or troop your presence. If that were the case, Dr. Paul would cite closer to 190 since that is roughly how many nations we have a diplomatic presence in. This funding is provided by the State Department and data on their presence is not reported as a military presence by the DoD. This is sloppy reporting. Those More

Modest perversions of the game have been around a long time- scrambles, 'greenskeeper revenge' events, etc. But at least they aren't full fledged rewrites of the rules the way 'flogton' is. If beginners and business casual for women players are frustrated, the solution to thier frustration is things like the par three course, not 'easier' rules. Imagine the chaos More

You don't lay off a poor performing Fire Dept where the town is on fire. You give them extra equipment & help from any source you can. After the town is safe, you come up with long term goals term plans. There clowns (Tea Party) did nothing before. I say let us increase the debt ceiling for 2 years and have both parties come up with solutions that are workable. Rome More

Rudy, I commend you. As someone who has been struggling with infertility for almost 2 years now, I understand the pain and emotional pain toll that trying to have a baby puts on a family. I am also a gay women in a loving marriage who cannot just go out and get pregnant. IVF is extremely expensive and the odds are not good. We have exhausted our resources and can More

Ohh, please, a 9-7 record? Playoffs are a joke -- are the Giants really claiming that they are better than the Packers over a 18 games season? Winning theNFL championship has no bearing on being the best tean during a season, but being the hottest team building days during a four game season in the NFL or a series of short series in MLB! Let television rule, but More

No, you are not correct. I love America, period. You can be disappointed in a particular action of someone or some organization or some country - and still love them. Do you have a wife and/or children? Considering the slander and evil directed at Obama, and how do you know if you are in love he puts up with it in the service to his country, I think it's safe More

Because admitting students based on merit alone will give you an undiversified making learning fun environment that in the end will detract form the overall learning experience admittance based on merit alone is an ineffective policy. If Harvard wanted to fill every class with 4.0 GPA high school valedictorians with near perfect SAT scores they could. Students are More

Surprise .... how droll the secret law of attraction secret data, how little has not been all ready reported or opined, how diminutive the international reaction, how absent any intended chaos. If Wikileaks intended an IED ... it's a dud. The intent is clear ... and both Manning and Assange should be prosecuted for their ill intent. However, take heart in how well More

Back in the 1960's, when PBS was created, there were probably less than 10 channel choices in even the largest metros. Certainly there was little educational programming. But today - I have 600 channels on FIOS... and can buy more if I want. There is absolutely no need for a government TRILLIONS in debt to be spending money on something that is made redundant. They More

This is a good example of where government regulation is warranted. Why should an oil company be permitted to begin drilling in the Gulf (or anywhere for that matter) without an adequate and approved plan in the event of an accident such as this. The government should insist, as part of a six sigma black belt certification process, that companies have sensible More
