Brigadier General Wounded in Iraq Last Edited: Monday, 29 Oct 2007, 11:21 PM EDT Pentagon officials confirmed to FOX News that Brigadier Gen. Jeffrey J. Dorko, commander of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Gulf Region Division in Baghdad, was one of two soldiers wounded Monday by an improvised explosive device (IED) in northern Baghdad.The other soldier was treated and released.Dorko was traveling Monday morning with a private security team belonging to Erinys International when the attack occurred in northern Baghdad.He is thought to be the highest-ranking U.S. military officer injured in the war. Dorko suffered shrapnel wounds and was taken to Landstuhl Army Hospital in Germany for treatment, his father, Ray Dorko told The Sandusky Register, a MyFoxToledo.com media affiliate. ===============================Say what you want about Blackwater, Erinys Intl. is a British owned firm, thus they were technically mercenary soldiers, by definition.oops…link: http://www.myfoxorlando.com/myfox/pages/News/Detail?contentId=4776226&version=1&locale=EN-US&layoutCode=TSTY&pageId=3.3.1one_for_the_doctor & Jerry C: You are both missing the point, that it means the military is stretched so thin, that they cannot even protect their own leaders and are relying on paid mercenaries to do so.regerugged: As long as they are in battle dress serving in Iraq, it is a military job.Oh and by the way, Mercenary: 1. Working merly for money or other reward. 2. (of professional soldiers) hired to serve a foreign country.-Oxford American DictionaryBased on the definiton of mercenary above, do you think that the “soldiers” hired by Erinys, are serving because they want to liberate Iraq and bring freedom and democracy to that region or are doing it for money (which is about 5-6x more than they earned in the military)?Resolved Question: Isn’t it embarrassing for the military to have a Brigadier General protected by mercenary soldiers?

Resolved Question: The blues is now rock and Cheer-leading is now Rap?——————————————————————————–It’s a funny comparison. While the soulfull Blues turned to emotional Rock,Motivating Cheerleading turned into souless Rap.While the blues were negative they were soulfull and expressive a story to tell ,rock the same sometimes happy or sad but more broad than the blues in the matter of expression,cheerleading motivational and positive then there’s Rap expressionless,no soul ,usualy no point no story,not as much effort since talking is done in all three others,just memorize some words and flap your lips… it’s so stupid,or army cadence would also be an orgin all though motivating. Rap does nothing for nobody but themselves,they don’t sing a song and everyone affiliated with it is a piece of shiz.Rap is an acronym.It stands for rythmic african poetry. Well if it’s music then so is cheerleading and cadences which are not.It’s rythimic poetry not music.Like it or not,it is not music,it’s own definition is rythmic african poetry and it can stay that way and cheerleading still only does cheers and the blues do blues music and rock does rock music.Good luck and if u disagree tell me why,debate it.Argue the point not with me, use logic and if you can’t then your debate holds no water

Resolved Question: Does your religion say bad things about people who aren’t a part of it?Then, by definition, your religion is a piece of shit. And so are you for being affiliated with it.

Definition of the word “queer”1. strange or odd from a conventional viewpoint; unusually different; singular: a queer notion of justice. 2. of a questionable nature or character; suspicious; shady: Something queer about the language of the prospectus kept investors away. 3. not feeling physically right or well; giddy, faint, or qualmish: to feel queer. 4. mentally unbalanced or deranged. So….my question is…why do gay folks inflict this word upon themselves my making a big stink with Hallmark over them using the word “queer” in a Father’s Day card? The word was used in a generic way,,,, not affiliated with the homosexual community at all…..and a big stink is made by the gay folks because they used it in the real way the word should be used. Not derogatory towards anyone….and….because they used the word “queer”…..the gay community beefs????Yes, I do know they pulled the card.My bottom-line is “Why”? Why should they have to? When I read the card, I did not relate it to the gay community at all? But, because someone is gay? and looks for discrimination in places where there is none….is quite ridiculous!Resolved Question: Gays, Lesbians, Hallmark and the word “queer”………?

…and Republicans are affiliated with the Protestant Church (ie. the Bushes), and Republicans have way more conservative views (i.e. ProLife), but Protestant religions are usually more liberal than Catholocism? I just think its ironic that the most well-known Democratic family in America are Catholic, which by definition is more conservative than most Prostentant religions, but the Kennedys are affiliated with the most Liberal party. Don’t you think it shoud be the other way around. Most Catholics I know, are much more conservative than those affiliated with the Protestant church. What do you think?Resolved Question: Anybody think it’s odd that the Kennedys who are Democratic (Liberal) are Catholic?
