I just ordered a 2 keg setup with all the bells and whistels from Midwestern supply. What I am trying to desperatley find out is if I can just rack my 2 week old beer from my primary right into the corny without going to a secondary. I would them force carbonate it. Would I be able to drink the beer after the 3-4days of force carbonating. Thanks
 
Absolutely, but I would probably wait another week. You'll find a lot of people here have given up using secondary for most beers (big beers, fruit beers, dry hopped beers, etc. excluded).
 
Others will suggest crash cooling your beer to aid in the settling out of yeast and whatnot. Then they transfer very clear product without need of a secondary. Search some of BierMuncher's or EdWort's threads - I believe they're doing that.
