It was a way of making a point, Though this certain person has brought up the subject before, it is a way to deter Republicans from going to war by making it a possibility for those who come from all sorts of backgrounds be it rich or poor have to go fight as well. . Meaning Senators and Congressman's children to have to go no matter what. Well that's what i got from this news article. Read it and make your own opinion :)

Based on context of where I'm seeing it, it seems to refer to something about postwar service records from the Virginia Archives... but it's really not clear because they just don't define it anywhere.

This acronym stands for 'absent without leave'.  It means that you are tardy.  It means that you are busted!  When you do return you will probably be subject to office hours, or court marshall, or loss of rank and priviledge or perhaps even brig time!  You better have a damn good excuse, like calling on the phone and saying:"Sir, this is Cpl JONES. don't pay the ransom, I bit my way through the ropes and I'm on my way back to base."

America IS it's constitution. It IS it's laws. GWB's military commisions act has the ability to strip a citizen their citizenship by labelling them as enemy combatants. This simply means someone in power has accused you of being a treat to the country. Now as an enemy combatant you have NO RIGHT's. That's right into a secret prison and THAT'S IT FOR YOU. You were born an American and without a trial are now spending the rest of your days stripped of freedoms. Passing this law is treason to the country. \n\nhttp://www.rense.com/general74/mil.htm

They don't stand for anything. It's a short way of saying 'VP' = 'vee pee' = 'veep' for short.\n\n'Jeep' came about the same way. It's short for 'GP' which is short for 'General Purpose' (I think).

I'm having a problem understanding the question - what exactly does "are you gree" mean?\n\nI guess it's not a surprise since liberals have been in charge of education in America for the last 50 years...

Basically, it means that the military has total jurisdiction to try (go to court) with any person(s) or alien (non-citizen) who attacks or support attacks on military property or personnel.\n\nThis court is made up of a military commission (so like generals and possibly senators too).\n\nExample: you (an American) and your Arabian friend are associated with the Taliban decided to supply weapons for them to attack a US military base, and you were part of the attacking group.  You and your friend will be tried by a military commission.  Not in a tradition court with a judge and jury.  But in a panel without jury.

Well, I am not sure what those guys are talking about, but in the military it means that you are dysfunctional, like a Soup Sandwich, no matter how you make it, it just doesn't work.  Anyway, it is not a compliment.
