			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h3><img src="http://s3.amazonaws.com/readers/2012/02/16/aliengetty460_1.jpg" alt="" /></h3>
<h3>Headline news: Aliens beings have landed and claim they are not going to blow us all up.</h3>
<p><strong>Okay, so alien beings have landed on earth. After all the fear and hype surrounding their arrival, you suddenly have the chance to interview these visitors from another world.</strong></p>
<p>Now think about this for a moment. Most of the questions asked would be no doubt broadcast over the television and radio stations. Such questions would be &#8220;How long did it take you to travel?&#8221; and &#8220;Have you guys found the cure for cancer?&#8221;.&nbsp;</p>
<p>Of course there would be many other scientific based questions and health related queries we would all be eager to get answers to.&nbsp;</p>
<p>But think outside the box. Ask yourself what other questions you may pose for our friendly (we hope) and cute looking aliens.&nbsp;</p>
<p>Here are some &#8220;bizarre&#8221; and fun questions we could ask if we had the chance:</p>
<p><strong>1.</strong> Have you guys ever contracted a sexually transmitted disease?</p>
<p><strong>2.</strong> Is anal sex allowed on your world?</p>
<p><strong>3.</strong> Do your females prefer a big one or are they all liars like the women here on earth?</p>
<p><strong>4.</strong> Do you all listen to Justin Beiber?</p>
<p><strong>5.</strong> Do you guys have traffic lights at each interstellar worm hole?</p>
<p><strong>6.</strong> Have you ever had group sex and if so has any of you male aliens mistook another male alien for a female? (ouch)!</p>
<p><strong>7.</strong> Do you practice safe sex on your world?</p>
<p><strong>8.</strong> Have you ever watched Eastenders and then wanted to commit suicide?</p>
<p><img src="http://s3.amazonaws.com/readers/2012/02/16/aliensexattack20100429070454325_1.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p><strong>9.</strong> Who is the sexiest alien on your world?</p>
<p><strong>10.</strong> Do condoms exist on your planet?</p>
<p><strong>11.</strong> Are your police crooked?</p>
<p><strong>12.</strong> If you lot robbed a bank, do you just beam out the money or do you do it the old fashioned earth way and have a guy hanging outside looking guilty as hell in a smoking old hot rod?</p>
<p><strong>13.</strong> Do your schools have anti-bullying laws?</p>
<p><strong>14.</strong> Would you adopt Pamela Anderson?</p>
<p><strong>15.</strong> If so, would you like to probe her?&nbsp;</p>
<p><strong>16.</strong> Oh&#8230;.and what with? wink wink.</p>
<p><img src="http://s3.amazonaws.com/readers/2012/02/16/76622gayaliensvw1_1.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p><strong>17. </strong>Do you have gay aliens?</p>
<p><strong>18.</strong> Do your kids get to play with thermo-nuclear anti-matter chemistry kits?</p>
<p><strong>19. </strong>Any mishaps with that and if so, how big a disaster did the mischievous 8 year old cause?</p>
<p><strong>20.</strong> Do you think Captain Kirk is the best in Star Fleet?</p>
<p><strong>21.</strong> Do you lot like Friends?&nbsp;</p>
<p><strong>22.</strong> Is the character &#8220;Joey&#8221; a real alien?</p>
<p><strong>23.</strong> Do you lot make snowmen when it&#8217;s snowing?</p>
<p><strong>24.</strong> Do the females on your world consider breast implants?</p>
<p><strong>25. </strong>Do your &#8220;grow your penis bigger pills&#8221; really work on your world as here on earth millions of men are duped into thinking they work here.</p>
<p><strong>26.</strong> Do you guys practice religion?</p>
<p><strong>27.</strong> Would you ever keep a human as a pet?</p>
<p><strong>28.</strong> Any of you lot on Face Book as most of the world here seems to think its the best place to be (sad bastards)?</p>
<p><strong>29.</strong> Did &#8220;JFK&#8221; get killed by one of you guys?</p>
<p><strong>30.</strong> Is Obama under your control?</p>
<p><strong>31.</strong> If I could borrow your probe, will that mean my wife will have multiple orgasms if I use it on her like you gits did when you abducted her?</p>
<p><strong>32.</strong> Could you kidnap my wife and leave her on your planet as she is sucking me dry financially?</p>
<p><strong>33.</strong> Do elastic bands get on your nerves?</p>
<p><strong>34.</strong> Who gets to cook? Or do you do what they do in Star Trek and ask a replicator to serve up an instant dinner?</p>
<p><img src="http://s3.amazonaws.com/readers/2012/02/16/imagesqtbnand9gctrbnbpgvny8vftywpyp4slxhk7fnq1pccypb9nhxdfw2uyspv2vek1rqzw_1." alt="" /></p>
<p><strong>35.</strong> You guys hardly speak. I hear you have telepathic abilities and communicate via thought. So if that&#8217;s the case, what dirty fucking thoughts are you thinking now about my fit looking girlfriend just emerging from her room wearing nothing but a smile?</p>
<p><strong>36. </strong>Will England&#8217;s Queen ever retire?</p>
<p><strong>37.</strong> Do you guys do some recreation drugs?</p>
<p><strong>38.</strong> Do you alien males ever suffer impotence after 40?</p>
<p><strong>39.</strong> If so, how good is your Viagra? I ask because I would really like to try it and see if my wife walks around sore for the next few days after I&#8217;ve took it and banged the crap out of her.</p>
<p><strong>40.</strong> Do you watch Jerry Springer or Jeremy Kyle?</p>
<p><strong>41.</strong> Are those two chat show hosts under your influence?</p>
<p><strong>42.</strong> Did your interstellar enemies conspire with Adolf Hitler during earth&#8217;s World War 2?</p>
<p><strong>43.</strong> Come on, what really happened at Roswell?</p>
<p><img src="http://s3.amazonaws.com/readers/2012/02/16/reactor6t_1.gif" alt="" /></p>
<p><strong>44. </strong>Is Bob Lazar (the guy who claims he saw alien technology at the notorious Area 51) real?</p>
<p><strong>45.</strong> Do you guys buy rounds of drinks on a Friday night out on the space station?</p>
<p><strong>46.</strong> Is Triond under alien control as most of us believe Nathan on this site doesn&#8217;t answer our questions? So is this part of some sort of conspiracy?</p>
<p><strong>47.</strong> Who is the best writer on Triond? Is it Craigz, Jimmy, Ruby Hawk, Nelson Doyle, Ulsterman, ImKarn, Sharif, Love Doc, Kitty, Melanie T, Rosetta-Artist, The Stick man, Dale Walker, Gaby, CA Johnson, Uma Shankari, Linda Lori, Joe Schmidt, Allison Jae, Christine Ramsey and probably a good few dozen who I have not mentioned here (apologies for those not mentioned)?</p>
<p><strong>48.</strong> Is the writer Craigz under psychiatric treatment with half the crap he writes?</p>
<p><strong>49.</strong> Do you guys masturbate and get turned on by fast rocket ships and faster women?</p>
<p><strong>50.</strong> Is the real reason why you aliens have not invaded the earth based purely on watching episodes of <i>Star&nbsp;Trek, Buck Rogers, Thurnderbirds</i> and films such as <i>Star Wars</i> and <i>Independence Day</i> because you are afraid of us and all that firepower we got and thought &#8220;fuck that&#8221;?</p>
<p><img src="http://s3.amazonaws.com/readers/2012/02/16/yoda_1.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p><strong>51.</strong> Is <i>Yoda</i> and his band of <i>Jedi Knights</i> some form of gay group that go around bragging with big, well lit weapons?</p>
<p><strong>52.</strong> That funny looking device you just pulled out of your pocket. Now that you answered my strange questions, are you going to zap me with it so the truth about you dirty little gits doesn&#8217;t get published in the morning papers?</p>
<p><strong>What would you ask?</strong></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h3><em>Who do you feel will be our next President?</em></h3>
<ol>
<li>
<h3><em>Mitt Romney</em></h3>
</li>
<li>
<h3><em>Ron Paul</em></h3>
</li>
<li>
<h3><em>Newt Gingrich</em></h3>
</li>
<li>
<h3><em>Rick Santorum</em></h3>
</li>
<li>
<h3><em>Barack Obama</em></h3>
</li>
</ol>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Please share who you believe will be our next president.&nbsp; As for me, I am not sure who to pick at this point, but I am sure as the time gets closer to voting, I will have a clearer picture of who I will vote for.&nbsp;</p>
<p>Please share your opinions as well regarding these candidates and how you feel about them, etc.</p>
<p>I voted for President Obama as I felt he would make a great president.&nbsp; At this present time, I feel ashamed that I voted for him, I gave him too much credit.&nbsp; I know being president is a very hard job, I sure as heck wouldn&#8217;t want that responsibility.&nbsp; Anyways, just my opinion.</p>

		<description><![CDATA[This is a short article on the currently presented issue of government vs religious freedom.]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h3>Religion and the Government</h3>
<p>&nbsp;&nbsp; You see a lot in the news lately about how Obama is infringing on Religious Freedom with the law mandating that Catholic Business owner provide contraception care for their employees. Now when I first heard this, like many people, I jumped to the conclusion that we were somehow waging war on the Catholic Church. However, after I did some research and found what the law actually said, I quickly changed my mind. You see a lot today that leads you from conclusion to conclusion, especially with the Republican Primaries currently going on. Anything they can snatch at to try and get the backing of the people (as if they really needed it) they grab on to and won&#8217;t let go of. I personally like to think for myself, which is why I did some research into this.</p>
<p>&nbsp;&nbsp; The law that was pushed through (from Congress) mandated that Religious business owners, of all types, must provide contraception care for their employees of different beliefs. What does this means? This means if your not a Catholic, but you work for a Catholic business, then contraceptive care should be available to you, through the insurance provider of that company. The rebuttal to this from the Catholic Church was that they didn&#8217;t care what you believe, they don&#8217;t believe in contraceptive care and therefor would not be forced to provide it. The Republic Parties if you have noticed have latched on to this and stated that it was impinging on religious freedom! That&#8217;s completely wrong to begin with, Catholic business&#8217;s are forcing their beliefs onto their employees whether they like or not, that&#8217;s an infringement on religious freedom! Of course there are a great many Americans who bought into this crap because as Americans, we don&#8217;t do research ourselves, we expect it to have already been done. Unfortunately that&#8217;s never the case and always turns around to bite us.</p>
<p>&nbsp;&nbsp; I know that our votes don&#8217;t matter, and lot of people are coming to realize that. However, that does not mean that we should not be informed! The whole point behind the education system was to make sure that the people knew what the government was doing. Religious parties would prefer us not to know what&#8217;s going on. It makes things easier on them. Our fore-fathers had the fore sight to separate the church and state. They also had the fore sight to make that we were all educated so that we could understand what was going on from <strong>BOTH</strong> sides. This law should have never been an issue and the Government should of had our backing in this. Especially since 99% of all women use a contraceptive in their lifetime!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>It is one thing for a political organization to bring to light the unfairness of the media but when you climb in bed with a President, get funding from that President, one must wonder the reasons why.&nbsp; The Obama Puppet pocket media all seem to be on board with team Obama except for one, FOX news.&nbsp; They find fault s and air them out on live television.&nbsp; Media Matters has a mission, to get FOX news off the air, leaving&nbsp; only complimentary and nothing but delightful banter no matter what Obama tries to do to the United States of America.&nbsp; </strong></p>
<p><strong>Obama wishes to unarm America&#8217;s nukes by at least 80% and yet, you will not hear any of that in the media, why, anything Obama, in the news, is usually censored or overseen by Media Matters.&nbsp; FOX news has been called the devil by the left, and as a people, we should really look at who is calling who a devil, and wonder why.&nbsp; The devil comes to us in many forms to trick, and confuse.&nbsp; </strong></p>
<p><strong>I remember when I wrote the book, &#8220;White House Mafia?, it was blocked by many angels, so I simply changed the name, and let it speak for itself.&nbsp; Now, America&#8217;s Glitch slips past those who would love to see it stopped but by now, those who oppose are ready seeking to see it put down again.&nbsp; </strong></p>

		<description><![CDATA[Obama regaining public view and back at 50% to gain edge over republican candidates.]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Democratic or Republic which will win the tide in the upcoming November, 6th 2012 election. Most of you by the new statistics reported on CNN, ABC, and other channels say that Obama is back at 50% approval rating, again in eight months.&nbsp;</p>
<p>So what is this, are we playing some politics ourselves or what? First we say boo, bad call, etc on Obama&#8217;s decision saying were not voting again for a Democratic and so on. But that seems to be a false statement because CNN has proven on a recent survey 50% have said they approve Obama.&nbsp;</p>
<p>What gets me personally irritated is when people at school, work, or any where say Obama stinks, this that and that and so forth, but a couple months later its like the complete opposite. So for those of you that are strong republic I wouldn&#8217;t be let down by this, because in another month or so it will change, change, and change till decision time is upon the citizens. So you all have less than 10 months from now to vote and you better be ready to face the consequences each candidate brings and ultimately the winners.&nbsp;</p>

He outlined steps to support a housing market recovery, including helping homeowners to refinance and a homeowner bill of rights." /></a></li>
</ul>
<p>President Obama speaks at the James Lee Community Center in Falls Church,&hellip; (Saul Loeb, AFP/Getty Images)</p>
<p>Reporting from Washington &mdash; Distancing himself from Republicans on housing issues, President Obama pitched a $5-billion to $10-billion plan to help a key segment of struggling homeowners &mdash; those still making monthly payments, but on underwater mortgages.</p>
<p>Obama proposed Wednesday to help about 3.5 million people with good credit who are unable to refinance at historically low rates because their homes are worth less than their mortgages.</p>
<p>He argued that those homeowners &mdash; and the country &mdash; couldn&#8217;t afford to let the housing market bottom out, as many Republicans, including presidential candidate Mitt Romney, have advocated.</p>
<p>&#8220;This plan &hellip; will not help the neighbors down the street who bought a house they couldn&#8217;t afford, and then walked away and left a foreclosed home behind,&#8221; Obama said. &#8220;It&#8217;s not designed for those who&#8217;ve acted irresponsibly, but it can help those who&#8217;ve acted responsibly.&#8221;</p>
<p>His administration took steps last fall to help as many as 11 million underwater homeowners whose loans were backed or owned by Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac or the Federal Housing Administration. Now Obama wants to expand that program to the remaining underwater homeowners, whose loans are owned by banks or investors.</p>
<p>But the refinancing plan is strongly opposed by many congressional Republicans and faces an uphill climb in an election year. They contended that the administration&#8217;s previous housing plans have been unsuccessful and that the market needs to settle on its own.</p>
<p>&#8220;How many times have we done this?&#8221; House Speaker John A. Boehner (R-Ohio) said. &#8220;I don&#8217;t know why anyone would think this next program would work.&#8221;</p>
<p>Obama also proposed to pay for the refinancing plan with a new fee he wants Congress to levy on large banks. The financial industry strongly opposes that fee, which Obama has been unable to push into law since first proposing it in 2010.</p>
<p>Such a fee could delay the housing recovery because it would &#8220;directly reduce lending capacity and banks&#8217; ability to lend&#8221; by up to $100 billion, said Frank Keating, president of the American Bankers Assn.</p>
<p>Obama&#8217;s proposal appeared designed to draw a sharp distinction between him and Republicans on help for struggling homeowners.</p>
<p>In October, Romney told the Las Vegas Review-Journal that the housing market needed to &#8220;hit the bottom&#8221; before it could recover, and he has since talked about the need for foreclosures to run their course.</p>
<p>Obama alluded to those comments Wednesday, noting that more than half of all homeowners in Las Vegas were underwater.</p>
<p>&#8220;It is wrong for anybody to suggest that the only option for struggling, responsible homeowners is to sit and wait for the housing market to hit bottom,&#8221; Obama told a crowd at a Falls Church, Va., community center. &#8220;I refuse to accept that, and so do the American people.&#8221;</p>
<p>The administration released 10 pages of details on the refinancing proposal as well as other steps to help the housing market, such as streamlined refinancing requirements and a homeowner bill of rights with simple disclosure forms and protection from inappropriate foreclosures.</p>
<p><img src="http://s3.amazonaws.com/readers/2012/02/15/pixel_1.gif" alt="" width="1" height="1" /><u><img src="http://s3.amazonaws.com/readers/2012/02/15/pixel_1.gif" alt="" width="1" height="1" /></u>To be eligible, homeowners would have to be current on their mortgage payments for the last six months and have missed no more than one payment in the previous six months. Homeowners also would need a credit score of at least 580.</p>
<p>Also, homeowners would have to be no more than 40% underwater on the loan, owing, say, $140,000 on a home now worth only $100,000. Obama also proposed that Congress set new guidelines for loans that are more deeply underwater.</p>
<p>To speed approvals, lenders would need only to confirm that the homeowner has a job. Borrowers would not need to submit tax returns or get a new appraisal of the property. Unemployed homeowners also would be eligible for the refinancing plan, but would be required to provide more detailed financial information.</p>
<p>The program would be open only to mortgages below the FHA&#8217;s conforming loan limits, which are $271,050 in low-cost areas and $729,750 in Southern California and other high-priced markets. By refinancing, borrowers would save an average of $3,000 a year. The cost of the program would be to cover the increased risks for the FHA, which would back the refinanced loans.</p>
<p>Some Republicans said it was irresponsible to add new risk to the FHA, whose finances are already in trouble and could require a federal bailout.</p>
<p>But Barry Zigas, director of housing policy for the Consumer Federation of America, said the refinancing proposal was &#8220;a sensible and modest federal &#8216;helping hand&#8217; that is long overdue.&#8221;</p>
<p>Housing and Urban Development Secretary Shaun Donovan said the White House was open to finding a different method, other than the bank fee, to pay for the refinancing plan. But he said administration officials believed banks should help pay for the plan because they helped cause the housing crisis.</p>
<p>Bert Ely, an independent banking analyst, said the plan could not pass Congress and appeared to be a political move by Obama to put heat on Republicans, particularly Romney.</p>
<p>&#8220;Is this really to help the housing market? Or is this really to give the president something to talk about on the campaign trail?&#8221; Ely said.</p>
<p>He said the plan probably would not do much to reduce foreclosures because it targeted homeowners who have been making their payments. And he questioned why the administration would want to reduce the amount of paperwork required for refinancing.</p>
<p>&#8220;It&#8217;s ironic that the whole reason we got into this mess was, in part, because of sloppy underwriting and misrepresentations about the ability to pay, and they turn right around and put a proposal on the table which is essentially the same thing,&#8221; Ely said.</p>

		<description><![CDATA[Playing the election like a fiddle only no squares are dancing.]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>This point is simple and clear.&nbsp; Obama now asks for things just to get the republicans goat up, but since the Democrats already know the republican congress will fold and many issues due to pressure from the left media they aim for the reelection of the King.&nbsp;</p>
<p>One might ask themselves why every move Obama makes is the wrong move for America, well, there is an election coming up and perhaps, he is guiding folks the way he wants them to be guided.&nbsp; if Obama decides to take on the Catholic Church, he does it to the conservative candidate will stand up and rally folks around the constitution.&nbsp; The problem is, the true conservative cannot win over the sitting President.&nbsp; Ok, so, here we are.&nbsp; America now rallies around a man who cannot possibly win in 2012.&nbsp; Played like a violin. Obama is pushing Americans buttons and while some say he doesn&#8217;t know what he is doing, I beg to differ.&nbsp; The man is playing America, using child psychology on its people, and it is working.&nbsp;</p>
<p>Obama has no regard for America&#8217;s Constitution, or the American people.&nbsp; He loves Europe, and wants to see America head back to the days of yore.&nbsp; He believes that government shall be caregiver to&nbsp; feed them what they deserve, and give a weekly allowance that he thinks is fit.&nbsp; He hates the idea of being President, but loves the idea of becoming King someday.&nbsp; He, is using the ways of divide and conquer, via the old Robin Hood theory of Rob from the rich and give to the poor.&nbsp; He does not think people are smart by a long shot, after all, he learned from the best, Chicago politicians, mad bombers, and radical thinkers.&nbsp; Yes, Obama knows exactly what he is doing and unless America starts to stand up for herself, no one else will.</p>
<p>Obama has lefty Hollywood on his side along with, communists, socialist thinkers, and un molded minds, meaning the youth.&nbsp; He needs someone running against him who will surely lose against him.&nbsp; If he gets four more years, then he will be crowned, and like a Castro, will never leave his throne.&nbsp; Never listen to what Obamticsa has to say, always watch his actions, they do speak volumes.</p>

		<description><![CDATA[They say, when one decides to compromise, they betray principals, and honor.  Republicans cave to media bashes, and more principles fall to the wayside.]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>John Andrew Boehner is the 61st, and current </strong><strong><strong>Speaker</strong> of the United States </strong><strong><strong>House</strong> of Representatives.&nbsp; He is supposed to lead on principles and side with the public, instead he bows to the bower, Obama.&nbsp; The republicans refuse to understand what the people want.&nbsp; A spending cut, is not spending less, it means no spending .&nbsp; They need to understand that we the people who live within a budget, means we manage with what we have to spend.&nbsp; This does not mean we allow more in the budget so we can meet what we wish to spend, the money is not there.&nbsp; </strong></p>
<p><strong>The old school republicans have been playing their little games so long, they cannot see the truth or justice, they just keep rolling along.&nbsp; The democrats openly admit, they love to spend, and the Republicans seem to say, they are against it, until they compromise on just how much to spend. They cannot see that spending is spending, little or a lot, you just can&#8217;t spell it any other way.&nbsp; </strong></p>
<p><strong>Their are a few new republicans in the mix trying to do the right thing, but not enough.&nbsp; We need to vote out the old, and hire some new thinkers who are actually on the side of the people.&nbsp; The old out numbers the new so republicans have some work to do in replacing the rusty old cave dwellers..&nbsp; This wont be easy since the left are comfortable with compromise, because they use the old bait and switch, ask for more, and get what they planned on in the first place.</strong></p>
<p><strong>The left call the Tea Party Movement, fake, and not a threat, while they call the Wall Street movement grass roots which should say it all.&nbsp; Tea Party members speak out peacefully, while Wall Street squatters are destructive, freeloaders, and yet, one side stands on principles while the other want their hand outs and more.&nbsp; In November, we will see a new President, a new congress, and the old America we all know and love.&nbsp; If that does not happen, then we may as well become a part of the United Kingdom which makes what our forefathers did in 1776 a mute point.</strong></p>
<p><strong>America, no, Americans will not compromise freedom for games politicians play. Americans , many Americans see the rhetoric, and havoc being placed on society by a President who has no plan.&nbsp; Americans who love freedom will never stand for the demise of a country founded on principles.&nbsp; We are the home of the free, and will never see America turning into the home of the free stuff.&nbsp; </strong></p>

		<description><![CDATA[It is not a human thing, its a political thing.  Smoke and mirrors are tools of the trade.]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The left wont like anything the right is doing, and visa versa no matter if they are doing the same things or not. Lets talk about the Mirrors.&nbsp; The Mirrors is saying one thing that satisfies many without really doing what we think we are saying.&nbsp; What we think they are saying is in fact not what they are following through with.&nbsp; That was political talk for &#8220;we will always do what we want, using words to reassure.&#8221;&nbsp; The best example of &#8220;Mirrors&#8221;, saying what everyone wants to hear is easy.&nbsp; Example: &#8220;We will cut spending.&#8221;&nbsp; If you cut a coupon to save money on something you don&#8217;t need, are you saving anything, or will you save more buy not buying it in the first place?&nbsp; Spending cuts are needed for America to survive.&nbsp; Real cuts can be made by stopping all government grants.&nbsp; Grants cost the U.S. trillions a year.&nbsp; Housing for field mice, studies on pencil shavings, and&nbsp; how long should hot dogs be, are also costing the US trillions, and yet, we never hear anything on cutting those silly projects out.&nbsp; Do we really need to cut medicare, military, and other social programs needed for our sick and elderly, or can we finally see that swamp mice can do without?&nbsp; What about the trillions of so called aid we send to countries who hate us?&nbsp; Need we really say more?</p>
<p>Smoke is the way politicians say words.&nbsp; The way in which the politicians say things can make a huge difference.&nbsp; Words are always crafted diligently to appease the crowd.&nbsp; Depending on the crowd, these words may vary.&nbsp; To cut spending, in political speak means they will tone down how much they spend.&nbsp; This is not a cut, but spending less.&nbsp; If we spend less, we are still spending.&nbsp; No matter how we say it, if we weed out the waste, the seventeen trillion owed at the end of this political term, can be cut out all together in less then five years.</p>
<p>in five years, if Americans start treating politicians like employees, and stop letting them all, take advantage of us all, we can cut out the debt all together.&nbsp; By eliminating all pork projects, stopping all bail outs, ending all accounts to all foreign nations, becoming our own manufacturer of oil, coal, weeding out all unnecessary regulations, making taxes obsolete, bu using a flat tax will end the debt all together.&nbsp; A flat tax means everyone pays their fair share.&nbsp; There would be no loop holes, a simple flat tax will insure that those who earn so little pay a little, and those who make the big bucks pay more.&nbsp; One more thing, if we eliminated all useless government posts, government jobs that do nothing, and stop paying diplomats for looking good, we can have a surplus.&nbsp; Lets not even get started on golf games, vacations, and living like a king.&nbsp; We roll in the mud while they tell us they know what we are feeling but do they?&nbsp; The President lives rent free, travels for free, and vacations for free.&nbsp; When is the last time America had a vacation?&nbsp; The poor can survive with their hand outs, the sick can like easier, and the elderly can keep that money they paid into the fund.&nbsp; Lets not cut any important programs, or let them tell us we need to, but lets do cut the fat off of our steak in America.</p>
<p>As I said, all politicians are to blame.&nbsp; We cannot place all the blame for everything that happened in the past twelve years on George W.&nbsp; If politics practiced honesty, instead of trying to fool all of the people all of the time, we would all be better off.&nbsp; If four years into a Presidency, Obama still blames Bush for all our woes, what can we believe in?&nbsp; The blame game will always be there, that is one of those tricks of the trade.&nbsp; America, be smarter then your employee, be smarter then that, because if we let those politicians trounce on us, we fail as an employer.&nbsp; Now, all those bail outs, they are paying us back so, where is out dividend?&nbsp; When they say, they are paying the tax payers money, that is a whole lit of bull.&nbsp; They are spending revenues made.&nbsp; We pay to live, but we don&#8217;t need to spend to survive.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><p>Government is now the preferred kickboxing bag of a lunatic edge who sometimes talk about him as a Marxist or a communist in cover and more intense a companion of the Moslems (as he is one of them). Tells me of time when light supremacy was the check out concept in the USA and companies like KKK ran amuck, acquiring and eliminating shades of dark-colored. This side of National record cannot be declined.</p>
<p>Times have however modified and the Black man has declared himself, but that does not mean that he is any less a patriot or an National than the light man. A look at the record of the US military and its battles in Vietnam and other conflicts will display that as a amount in regards to their inhabitants, more shades of dark-colored conducted for the US banner than the light man. But routines die challenging and there is a lunatic edge that just cannot take Government as a chief executive of the USA. Unusual claims and &#8216;revelations&#8217; about his delivery record, the facts of the matter that he is a communist are tossed about as if they are a gospel reality. Some snide reviews are created about the Presidents spouse and that Government is from a &#8216;ghetto&#8217;. One could die joking on a bed of claws at these absurd feedback.</p>
<p>What is the facts of the matter really? How do we pin the concerns of the last US Presidents (all light Men) who conducted unprovoked conflicts all over the community and reduced the US economic climate with the outcome that it is in debt of billions of $ $ $ $. These expensive conflicts provided no objective and in situation in all of them the US never obtained its goals. Take any war whether it is Irak, Iran or Vietnam, the US has consumed the nasty tablet. If the economic climate is now going breast, how do you pin it on Obama?</p>
<p>Obama has passed down a history of conflicts and near bankruptcy of the economic climate and I experience he is doing a excellent job about it. Even his plan of getting in touch with a scoop a scoop in respect to Israel and Pakistan is extensive. The regrettable element is that Our country&#8217;s center name is Moslem and that is his disadvantage and lovers the fire of a devoted community in the USA. I want to know who the People in america want to change Government with. Another Henry Bush? Who will make sure that the US goes around with a asking dish by fitness center some more wars?</p></p>
