That's certainly a possibility. I was under the assumption that you didn't get your college money until you finished your enlistment period.

Interesting. Of all the "skeptics" I've read, you're one of the few I've seen that actually looks at the data and produces a convincing argument based on it. I wish more people (on both sides) would forgo the name calling and just present rational arguments. Have you done more research into how those adjustments were created, or looked at other areas where the stations were more dense?

It would really be pretty cool if AGW, and GW in general turned out to not be happening.

"If he says that global warming is so bad that he wants taxes and regulation, he could be sincere, but might be using the global warming as an excuse, since he wants those things anyway."

Is this how conservatives actually think? That liberals *want* taxes and regulation, and health care, environmentalism, etc are just excuses to achieve those things? Interesting. Have you considered the possibility that liberals might see increased taxes and regulation as a beneficial trade-off in order to achieve things that are important to them?

From the statistics you posted for the enlisted forces:

73.3 percent have some semester hours toward a college degree
16.2 percent have an associate’s degree or equivalent semester hours
4.7 percent have a bachelor’s degree

I gotta say, reading that makes me think John Kerry might have been right after all. That's an awful lot of college kids that didn't finish college.

Let's get some facts straight here...

The Honduran President's term was not up. It's not up until January. He was trying to organize a vote on a constitutional referendum to allow him to run for a second term, which would likely have failed anyway. Yes, he was doing something illegal. But so was Nixon, and I don't remember the army ousting him.

To single out President Obama for his condemning of the coup is pretty disingenuous, considering pretty much every country in the region, and the UN, said the same thing.

Just because both candidates would have done the same thing on this issue doesn't mean that they weren't different on other issues. If my choices are "crap, crap, and bacon" or "crap, crap, and ice cream" I'm going to choose based on whether I prefer bacon or ice cream.

this seems to the perfect thread in which to do the same.
