Nice rhetoric, not based in reality of 2001 though, What percentage of the armed forces puts their lives on the line? It's a lot safer to be a cook on the Enterprize or an aircraft mechanic than it is to drive to my job. I don't know how to service a 50 caliber machine gun but I could probably run the email system for the Pentagon. Would you say that skill is less valuable? Even in war? The Army is important, it is not the only thing that is important.

I'm economically conservative but I see the value of social programs. I really don't like political labels. I like to make my mind up issue by issue. I'm Not in any way a Republican. I see your point about voter registration being open to abuse. Especially in the US where elections officials are elected and beholden to one party or another. But uneducated voter are open to exploitation by both sides. Education is a key to successful democracy.

You know, I know lots of immigrants, not one of whom broke the law upon entering the country. Who are the immigrants of which you speak? I think by far the majority are angels, test or not.
