The difference between a "former" and "retired" is the number of years served. Former--the serviceperson serves less years required to received retirement benefits. Depending on the branch of service, the number of years of service, and possibly other criteria..a serviceperson may get retirement.

No one seems to want the job. Frey started his working carrier working for the chairman of the Fairfax County Board of Supervisors, Jack Herrity, in 1979. He then worked for Springfield Supervisor Mrs. McConnell until the Sully District was created when he was elected Sully's first Supervisor. He's been there ever sicnc.

Obama thinks Thucydides plays center for the Kansas Jayhawks. We are dealing with a man who is dangerous in his undermining the constituiton of the United States. Obama believes that he has the power to do anything he damn pleases. Even Bush 41 and Bush 43 went to congress to seek approval of their wars. Evidently this is beneath Obama who rather seek war approval from the UN and the Arab League rather than congress. I am sick of leaders who have the audacity to waste our treasure, spill our blood, but feel no obligation to ask our permission. Hope and change-----------what a crock. “The president and his senior advisors need to re-read Thucydides.” Obama thinks Thucydides plays center for the Kansas Jayhawks.

She delivered Alaska for the Republican ticket in the last election. It seems to me the height of arrogance to rule her out she as a history of coming from out of no where to win and to win with a very sizable portion of the vote. She won her election for Governor of the the State of Alaska by garnering more than 57% of the vote in a five horse race for the governor's manson when no one gave her the slightest chance of garnering even double digit figures. I for one am not all that impressed with any of the other Republican potentials other than maybe Mitt Romney and sad to say I know of a lot of people who like what he stands for but won't or say they won't vote for him because he's a Mormon. Romney's dad was a great governor of Michigan when I was a kid living there. I suspect that Mitt could likewise be a great President but right now I think Sarah Palin could be just as good if not better simply because I like her positions on a lot fo issues and she fires up the electorate and can really haul in the donation$.
