1. Guess the US Army will accept anything now days. Saw on CBS

News last night, where some college-bound, 4.0 GPA high school guy, played along with a couple of recruiters. They had him acquire a fake HS dipolma from a fake school off the internet and bought him a kit to cover up his Mary Jane usage!! Kid video taped it! The Army is really hurting.

2. How interesting! But how about the guys who crafted the policy?

It's so pathetic that this woman has become the mascot for our country's torture of POWs. She deserves to do time, no doubt about it. But she was only a peon following policy from the Bush Administration.

3. And she still got into the military?

Sounds to me like bullshit. I know a kid without those problems and he is having trouble passing the ASFAB. You can't tell me England managed better with severe learning disabilites.
