SGT Private RallyPoint Member 699776 <div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>Here are 10 subjects AP suggests you should know today.<br />And here are my opinions:<br /><br />1. OF COURSE the POTUS is not going to send ground troops to the Iraqi region. That would show incompetence. His promises of withdrawal and his EGO has left us with a huge mess for the next POTUS to clean up.<br /><br />2. Prayers for those affected by the flood waters. Longview has been hit hard as well, but not as hard as the other areas. <br /><br />3. How do you suspect installing video camera's would make the rail operator of a train more capable, or competent, or more responsible? Not getting it.<br /><br />4. Fraudulent Tax Refunds!! Are you safe? Am I? When did they find out about this? The IRS is a big mess that needs to be fixed and fast. It's absolutely ridiculous. <br /><br />5. He obsessed about it, he knew it was wrong, he cased the building, he bought the materials, he looked up how to act insane... James Holmes is GUILTY<br /><br />6. Does anyone have more info about the all-night siege that happened in Kabul?? <br /><br />7. and 8. Really, no comment.<br /><br />9. At least he didn't ask the arresting officer "Do you know who I am?".<br /><br />10. Not a big Tennis fan... Eh<br /><br />Anyways, what are your thoughts about the top 10? Should other subjects be put in this list? What subjects could you have gone without knowing?<br /><br /><br /><a target="_blank" href="http://bigstory.ap.org/article/e8057f9250bc4c319c55cbe30e0a6249/10-things-know-today">http://bigstory.ap.org/article/e8057f9250bc4c319c55cbe30e0a6249/10-things-know-today</a> Ten things AP thinks you should know for this Wednesday, May 27th 2015... 2015-05-27T15:01:17-04:00 SGT Private RallyPoint Member 699776 <div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>Here are 10 subjects AP suggests you should know today.<br />And here are my opinions:<br /><br />1.

Not getting it." Quality assurance. Coach or replace bad operators. Encourage operators to act appropriately at all times.<br /><br />"His promises of withdrawal and his EGO has left us with a huge mess for the next POTUS to clean up."

US STAYING THE COURSE, DESPITE GAINS BY ISLAMIC STATE EXTREMISTS<br /> Good, it's not our problem. <br />2. HOUSTON AMONG STORM'S CHIEF VICTIMS<br /> Thoughts and prayers to the victims. Why isn't there infrastructure in place to prevent this mess?<br />3. HOW AMTRAK IS RESPONDING TO DEADLY DERAILMENT<br /> Accountability is a good first step. <br />4. IRS: THIEVES GOT ACCESS TO 100,000 TAX RETURNS<br /> Modernization costs money, I can understand that people don't want to spend the money necessary to move the IRS into the 21st century... however, how much is all that fraud going to cost us? <br />5. COLORADO THEATER SHOOTER'S NOTEBOOK DESCRIBES 'OBSESSION TO KILL' SINCE CHILDHOOD<br /> Sounds like it proves that he was insane for a very long time and family, schools and others were negligent in identifying a ticking time bomb. <br />6. GUNFIRE, EXPLOSIONS ERUPT IN AFGHANISTAN'S CAPITAL<br /> We either need to own Afghanistan and all it's issues for the next few decades, or we need to wash our hands of them. <br />7. WHAT'S DRIVING CHARTER COMMUNICATIONS' ACQUISITION OF TIME WARNER CABLE<br /> All of our media is already controlled by just a handful of corporations, we need the empires to be broken up... not more consolidation. <br />8. TACO BELL, PIZZA HUT GETTING RID OF ARTIFICIAL COLORS, FLAVORS<br /> Good, the healthier we eat the better.<br />9. ACTOR, PLAYWRIGHT ARRESTED ON SUSPICION OF DRUNKEN DRIVING<br /> Why is this national news? <br />10. WHICH AMERICAN IS OFF TO RUNNING START AT FRENCH OPEN<br /> Yawn.<br /><br />What about:<br /><br />1. The NATO exercise in Northern Europe... how is Russia responding to that little poke in the eye?<br />2. Taliban peace talks in China?<br />3. Justice department arrests of high level FIFA officials?<br />4. 10's of thousands displaced by violence in Central African Republic?<br />5. Rise in West African Drug Trade funding terror groups?
