at an age where money is not exactly plentiful. Especially if you're one of the millions of us living from one SS check to another. Talk about feeling like you're not wanted? Even by people on this board! Give me a choice, and let me go back to the home of my ancestors. Ireland isn't perfect by any means, but it beats the hell out of this country. I missed the right of return by one generation.
Wanna hear just HOW dumb this can get in redville? My daughter was hired a few years back for a DoD position. She had to fight tooth and nail about her birth certificate. She was born at Wilford Hall Hospital, on Lackland AFB, in Bexar County, city of San Antonio. But because her original certified birth certificate didn't list the "city" where Lackland AFB is located, she almost didn't get the job. She still hasn't gotten a Real ID, either, simply because of the "official" birth certificates the AF was using at the time. No idea if it's the same today... tho with all this "joint base" stuff it's probably changed. It's idiocy like this that in no way reflects on us and what we offer for their requirements, its if we deviate from the bare minimum norm of what a republican can critically understand. BTW... to actually "get" the job, she had to get someone from Lackland on the phone to talk with these idiots. Oh, that I would be so lucky to be able to do that regarding the blob of white out on my original marriage license to my (current) husband. I did decide when he dies, I'll never have anything to do with a man again... and certainly not marriage. It's nothing but a trap for women.
