I'm actually in favor of impeachment of all officials in Washington. But we need to make sure that the other corruption doesn't take over. We have a lot of work, but the first rule of business is to prosecute the media and put them in prison. Some may need execution, but they will be judged by a jury of their peers.
They created most of the problems due to their socialist behavior and the liberals have followed suit. If they want their country then they need to go and get it. And leave us alone.

Todd,
I'm not sure what's going on either, and you may be right to let them run things, but I'm afraid that things will get wrose, and we won't ever recover. And if you are not thinking of yourself, think what this could do to your children.

Hey Todd,
I heard that there were a lot of corruption in some of the recount. What have you heard?

At least Bush had a sense of humor. He said that it must be great to be free to do this. That is what freedom is about. Expressing your feelings. (very much paraphrased).
I think this guy is an Obama supporter.

I thought silly laws were a monopoly of UK but you have them in US.
Why do I think of Blazing Saddles and cowboys eating beans
Flatulence tax could bankrupt farmers
Belching cows and pigs could start costing farmers money if a proposal to charge fees for air-polluting animals becomes law.
Farmers so far are turning their noses up at the notion, which is one of several put forward by the Environmental Protection Agency after the US Supreme Court ruled in 2007 that greenhouse gases emitted by belching and flatulence amounts to air pollution.
"This is one of the most ridiculous things the federal government has tried to do," said Alabama Agriculture Commissioner Ron Sparks, an outspoken opponent of the proposal.
It would require farms or ranches with more than 25 dairy cows, 50 beef cattle or 200 pigs to pay an annual fee of about 175 dollars for each dairy cow, 87.50 dollars per head of beef cattle and 20 dollars for each pig.
The executive vice president of the Wyoming Farm Bureau Federation, Ken Hamilton, estimated the fee would cost owners of a modest-sized cattle ranch 30,000 to 40,000 dollars a year.
He said he has talked to a number of livestock owners about the proposals, and "all have said if the fees were carried out, it would bankrupt them".
DukePilgram,
Just to update you on this ridiculous law. The people spoke and I mean spoke to their reps up to November 28 (the day after Thanksgiving). This bill will not go to the floor. It died a quick death.
I knew about this and thought that this will do away with the livestock industry all together. But as I said before, the people spoke. Being from Alabama, I saw Sparks and he was definately against this. He plans to run for Governor in 2010.

There was an offer just before the election of the Obama coin and the McCain coin. You could purchase one of them or both. I threw the ad away. I didn't want either one. I guess someone is interested in things like that.

It's amazing how things are perceived bleaker than they are. I know this for a fact, if "We the People" let this happen it will happen. I believe that better days are coming, maybe not next year or the year after, but it will come. This is a wake up call. And I think that the government has taken too many things for granted for a long time now, including the Republicans. It's about time to get off our butts and make the changes ourselves.
You've got to be kidding if you think John McCain was going to make things happen. He had no plan, no idea how to move this country forward, and most of all nobody to back him up. The only thing that was good was Sarah Palin. They crucified her and it seems that it was also coming from the McCain campaign, too. I don't know if she's the one, but she does have that Reganess that we yearn for.
This too will pass, we survived Jimmy Carter, didn't we? In my memory as a youth, the Republicans messed things up then, with the Richard Nixon mess, and not too much inspiration from Gerald Ford. It was a hard four years, and Ronald Regan had a lot to fix, but he did so with the idiots in Washington. This will have to be the same, so you may be making those sacrifices as Obama says, but not the way he makes it sound. Hang in there, gang. This too will pass.

Jim, That sticks me in the wrong place too. I do have a solution about the entertainers and athletics, if it matters. Stop supporting them by watching or purchasing their endorsements. I don't go to games because it is way too expensive, and I really don't watch. I do go to the movies, and purchase the movies personally, but I can cut it out.
It has in recent years shown in the profits of the businesses, but we can do more. The owners are the ones who make the millions and billions. As for the CEO's who are making a killing and killing those who work hard. That is a little difficult to deal with, but it can be done by the same token. We are so into gadgets and entertainment that we loose perspective in our priorities that things right now is wacky.
We need to get things in the right perspective and distribute wealth in the right places to the farmers, teachers, police, firefighters, doctors, nurses and get it away from the ones who don't appreciate it like the actors and athletics and the CEO's.
Whatcha think? -
Here is some insight on the state of American education today and why those idiots in that video appeared so clueless.
Jim , this seems so unreal. How can this be happening? Are we allowing this? We should be shot for not shooting them. I just can't believe this is happening. I guess that's why there are so many home schools going on, but apparently not enough.
Cheers -
I can't believe some of the answers given. I consider myself fairly intelligent but not extremely so. Some of the answers make me wonder about the education our children are getting or if some of them even want to learn. That film really demorilized me
Jay, it might also be that they are doing this to get on TV.
Cheers -
I see this everyday myself. And I am not surprise either. If the truth is really known, I think most Americans don't really care. They are interested in other things and let the politians do what they do. Our elections are really down........especially when Clinton ran. Less than 50% of the voters came to vote on both of his elections. They have been up since, but really down in my opinion.
Cheers -
Why do you think the labor unions always support the "Dummicrates?" Here in Alabama mainly in the greater Montgomery area where the Hyundai car plant is, the labor unions have been trying to get their claws on the employees there. They (the employees) keep voting it down. By my count it has been voted on 6 times. My sister in law tells me how they are approaching them, and intimidating them, but they are holding strong. They have pretty good benefits, but the unions are promising them anything to get their vote. Isn't our unions great?
Cheers -
This is something that will upset most of you about Obama, and it will not get any coverage on TV. This is quiet lengthy.

Below please find a special message from one of our advertisers, ExposeObama.Com. From time to time, we receive opportunities we believe you as a valued customer may want to know about. Please note that the following message does not necessarily reflect the editorial positions of Human Events."The Global Poverty Act of 2007 (S.2433) is coming up for a Senate vote... according the office of Senator Kay Bailey Hutchison. Once Harry Reid and the Democrat leadership put it on the calendar, we could have as little as a week to prepare for the vote."- Lee Cary, The American Thinker
If Cary is right, Senator Barack Hussein Obama's only major legislative accomplishment as a United States Senator -- which according to some conservative leaders is potentially an $845 billion United Nations give away of your hard-earned tax dollars -- could be coming up for a stealth vote any day now!
Is it really possible that our federal legislators are planning to pass Barack Hussein Obama's Global Poverty Act while they think we aren't looking?
Here's what conservative activist Phyllis Schlafly said:
[INDENT]"Rumors have been circulating around Capitol Hill that a few activist groups have renewed their surge and have begun lobbying full force for a bill introduced by presidential candidate Sen. Barack Obama (D-IL). The bill has already passed out of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee without any public hearings, and it also passed the House earlier this year. It is important to note that both of these votes were 'voice votes,' which was a deliberate strategy of the congressional majority so that no record would be kept of those who voted in favor of this problematic bill."
[/INDENT]Cliff Kincaid of Accuracy in Media recently issued the following report:
[INDENT]"While Senator Barack Obama struggles to keep the public in the dark about the nature of his pro-U.N. Global Poverty Act, a recent 'Bay Area Interfaith Leaders' Luncheon' was held to lobby for Senate passage of the bill, whose cost has been estimated at $845 billion..."
"Meanwhile, a concerned parent alerted us to the fact that a Christian preschool in Long Island, New York was handing out a coloring page for children which included a plea for Congress to pass Obama's Global Poverty Act. 'Dear Parents,' said the letter that was sent home. 'We would like to join efforts with the congregation of St. David's to stop world hunger. You and your child can help by coloring and signing the enclosed sheet. This sheet will be sent along with many others to our representatives in Washington....
"The [enclosed] sheet said 'Dear Senator: At Preschool, I learned to thank God for the food I eat. I also collect coins to help those who don't have enough. Today, I ask you to help, too, with more and better aid for the world's poorest countries. We want Congress to pass the Global Poverty Act. Please cosponsor S. 2433. Thank you.' The child's name and age were supposed to be filled in.
"The pictures to be colored included what appeared to be an angel holding a bowl of food (with a Valentine heart on the robe and the bowl) and a basket with apples."

Help us expose Barack Hussein Obama to the American people and at the same time help us expose and stop his dangerous agenda. Use the "Join the Fight" button below!
And just how much is $845 billion?
Vincent Gioia, writing in Right Side News, translates this incomprehensible figure into language every American can understand:
[INDENT]"This amounts to a tax of over $2,000 on each man, woman and child in the United States. The foreign aid budget now stands at $300 billion; the Act would add the additional expenditure to the already huge amount allocated to assist the world."
[/INDENT]Where do you suppose they'll get the $845 billion?
Professor Jeffrey D. Sachs of Columbia University -- Director of the UN Millennium Project and Special Advisor to United Nations -- knows EXACTLY WHERE -- "through a global tax preferably on carbon-emitting fossil fuels."
[INDENT]He doesn't mean a tax on gasoline, does he?
OH YES HE DOES!
He doesn't mean a GLOBAL TAX, does he?
OH YES HE DOES!
[/INDENT]In a 2005 report toKofi Annan, the Secretary General's old friend Sachscriticized the United States for giving only a mere $16.3 billion a year to alleviate global poverty .
[INDENT]Specifically Sachs advocated a GLOBAL TAX:
"We will need, in the end, to put real resources in support of our hopes. A global tax on carbon-emitting fossil fuels might be the way to begin."
[/INDENT]In other words, you get to pay even more to fill up your tank so some leader of a third-world country can build two or three more palaces while his people are starve to death -- all in the name of fighting global poverty!

Didn't our elected officials learn ANYTHING from the Oil-for-Food scandal?
[INDENT]Do we need to recite the details to them every time they so much as THINK about giving the U.N. funds to alleviate hunger and eradicate disease?
[/INDENT]As David Asman of Fox News summarized it:
[INDENT]"It began as a United Nations humanitarian aid program called 'Oil-for-Food,' but it ended up with Saddam Hussein pocketing billions to become the biggest graft generating machine ever and enriching some of America's most forceful opponents at the United Nations."
[/INDENT]Rep. Christopher Shays (R-Conn) -- then chairman of the House Subcommittee on National Security, Emerging Threats, and International Relations -- shook his head and said:
[INDENT]"I believe the U.N., parts of it, have been corrupt for years. But this went to a whole new level."
[/INDENT]The scandal was so widespread that even Kojo Annan -- son of former United Nations Secretary General Kofi Annan -- got caught with his hand in the biggest cookie jar the world has ever seen!
In the wake of this mega-scandal, a Fox News Poll found that 54 percent of the U.S. public believed the United Nations did not reflect the values of average Americans, while only 29 percent said that United Nations' policies reflected our values.
[INDENT]Some of our leader want to forget about this horrible scandal!
[/INDENT][INDENT]We can't let them do that!
Some of our leaders think we've forgotten about the scandal!
We can't let them think that!

But wait a minute, folks! The Global Poverty Act is part of a much larger United Nations scheme.
[INDENT]The United Nations' Millennium Development Goal -- proclaimed in 2000 -- contains plans for the additional plundering of your bank account.
[/INDENT]Among their stated goals are:
[INDENT]a "currency transfer tax," -- that is, a tax imposed on companies and individuals who, in the course of traveling or doing international business, must exchange dollars for foreign currency (that's you on a vacation to Scotland);
a "tax on the rental value of land and natural resources;" (Will they make us pay taxes on the oil the Democrats won't let us harvest?)
and "fees for the commercial use of the oceans, fees for airplane use of the skies, fees for the use of the electromagnetic spectrum... and a tax on the carbon content of fuels."
[/INDENT]In other words, the skies and the oceans no longer belong to everyone. They belong to the third-world countries who run the United Nations. Soon enough they'll be taxing us on our use of sunlight.
It's clearly time to make the United Nations eat dust, before this coalition of demonic politicians and international swindlers destroys the U.S. economy -- and with it the only real hope of substantially reducing third-world poverty.Use the "Join the Fight" button below and we will send 50 urgent and personalized Blast Faxes FROM YOU to President George W.

Anyway,The anti-American feeling is hardly seen among the Japanese
people,because there is a common view that the prosperity of Japan
after the war is a result of military and economic support of the U.S.
However,President Bush suddenly recognized North Korea as a friendly country.It's true to be causing uneasiness that Japan is deserted by the
U.S. at the emergency.
President Bush is in a hurry of some results immediately before his term of presidency ends.
If not only but also the U.S. protects North Korea to gain the rare metal
(like oil at somewhere),Most Japanese will blame America for it,IMO.
regards,
H.sanada
Don't believe what you hear. There are things going on right now, but the president is very cautious. There are talks going on, and there is talk the North Koreans cooperating, but this has happened before, and I do know the president is aware of the past. There is little that is going on from our end, so it is still up to North Korea, but they are not getting off the hook that easy, or I hope so.
. . . . . and I hope you are wrong my friend.

We live in a much different world today. I will predict that if Obama is elected president, Europe will be attacked and they will blame America for it. Why, becasue the ememy knows that Obama is weak and will do nothing but retreat. We will see gas prices increase and may double within a year of his presidency. Our embassies will be attack all over and I think that our country will be attacked within four years.
How do I know? Obama is against war, and will sacrifice everyone so we won't offend his base.
McCain will defend this country and our allies. You may not like the choices we have in this years election, but if Obama is chosen because you don't like and vote for McCain, then you will know in a hurry the consequences of not choosing McCain. I wish we had better choices, but we don't.
Just a thought and I am not aiming at anyone, just making a general comment.

Hi Hondo
You gave Bill Clinton two more years than he could serve!!
If you want a real nightmare tonight. Think of Hilary as the loyal VP to Obama then eight years of her own then of course Chelsea and which time Willy Clinton Jr the child produced in the laboratory by Dr Frankenstein and Hillary will be due to run.
That should see you out to pension age
Barrack Obama 2008-2016
Hilary Clinton 2016-2024
Chelsea Clinton 2024-2032
I made my corrections, but what's worse, having Mondale for two more years or Bill.
Hillary would be too old by 2016. I think she would be older than McCain running now when she runs in 2016.
Cheers -
I have heard that Obama is heading to Iraq on some sort of fact raising tour or whatever, and all the anchors are going to be there to cover this man. It is suppose to take place in early August (to take away the president's visit to the Olympics). You would think that he was already president according to the news media. I can just say that I thank God that these idiots don't make the decisions on who is the president. We might have seen some really bad ones.
They have been telling us that democrats are going to be the presidents since I was born. Can you imagine having Jimmy Carter for four more years, and then Walter Mondale for eight? Then we would have Bill Clinton to follow which I think would have made things worse with Al Gore leading up these two terms. That would be the darkest days of 32 years in my life, and that is if I would have lived that long.
Let's see, I think After Johnson in 1968, we would have Hubert Humphrey. What a sad lot!
I guess with the media's wisdom, we can add Barrack Obama to this great list. I know that I missed John Kerry, but he would never run against Gore. And that would also include Mike Dukakis against Mondale.
Just to see the numbers (dates), here it is:
John Kennedy 1960-1963
Lyndon Johnson 1963-1968
Hubert Humphrey 1968-1976
Jimmy Carter 1976-1984
Walter Mondale 1984-1992
Bill Clinton 1992-2000
Al Gore 2000-2008
Barrack Obama 2008-2016
Chelsea Clinton 2016-2024?
Does that scar the hell out of you? It does me!
