#1 I bet that the rule is changed in about 24 hours.

#2 I bet that "rule" doesn't even exist. Austin is Texas is just another POS liberal town. Someone decided they were going to screw a Marine because they hate Bush, are against the war in Iraq and, WoT. I bet this is not teh only instance of this. He shouldn't be having to use his Education benifits if a state progam will cover it. I drive around Texas before you see me go through it.

#3 I clicked on this item saying "God, please don't let it be my state".

If his wife's place of residence was Texas while he was away (and I see nothing to the contrary), there should be no question. Not that there should be otherwise.

#4 Are illegal aliens considered 'residents' in Texas as far as in-state tuition goes?

They are here in the Peoples Republic of Washington (state).

#6 First NE groups start calling for their towns andor states to secede after Dubya won the Y2000 POTUS elex, so now its public or academic institutions - time for Cindy to once again call in the Commie Airborne, as "IFF ITS SEPARATISM, GRASSHOPPER, THEY WILL COME"!? These Lefties want the USA under Socialist OWG and Socialist World Order iff America has to be invaded to do it, they want the USSR-Red China back, only stronger and more despotic - Good Clintonians demand to be attacked and enslaved!
