1. Lets hear it for SEARS!
Submited: Sat, 1 Dec 2007

et al.:

This was policy after 1973 at many corporations and many small businesses.  Due to rising costs of doing business and increased interference from government, many companies let this drop during our hiatus from defense resolve in the '90s.
 
It's good to see some of the big boys who probably had senior execs serve our county continue this beneficial support.
 
Truly it's time to recognize this from the private sector who will take care of their own while Congress who oversees what they should not, have neglected publicly and privately that they will not support our troops without selfish conditions.
 
And, further many of them, clowns, want to be President led by one the first to recant , dismiss, and ignore a very prominent role in leading Congress to a resolve of support.
 
However, there is no excuse for not reading the mail even if it was about US resolve in support of enforcing UN sanctions.

Subject: Sears -  Christmas shopping has already started

I know I needed this reminder since Sears isn't always my first choice.
Amazing when you think of how long the war has lasted and they haven't
withdrawn from their commitment.  Could we each buy at least one thing at
Sears this year?

How does Sears treat its employees w ho are called up for military duty?  By
law, they are required to hold their jobs open and available, but nothing
more.  Usually, people take a big pay cut and lose benefits as a result of
being called up.

Sears is voluntarily paying the difference in salaries and maintaining all
benefits, including medical insurance and bonus programs, for all called up
reservist employees for up to two years.

I submit that Sears is an exemplary corporate citizen and should be
recognized for its contribution. I suggest we all shop at Sears, and be sure
to find a manager to tell them why we are there so the company gets the
positive reinforcement it well deserves.

Pass it on.

-------------------------------------------

Decided to check this before I sent it forward.  So I sent the following
e-mail to the Sears Customer Service Department:

"I received this e-mail and I would like to know if it is true.  If it is,
the Internet may have just become one very good source of advertisement for
your c ompany.  I know I would go out of my way to buy products from Sears
instead of another store for a like item, even if it's cheaper at that
store."

This is their answer to my e-mail:

Dear Customer:

Thank you for contacting Sears.The information is factual. We appreciate
your positive feedback.

Sears regards service to our country as one of greatest sacrifices our young
men and women can make.  We are happy to do our part to lessen the burden
they bear at this time.

Bill Thorn

Please pass this on to all your friends. Sears needs to be recognized for
this outstanding contribution and we need to show them as Americans, we do
appreciate what they are doing for our military !!!

et al.:

 et al.:
 By now, most of you may have figured out that I am seeking "The Office of The President of     The United States".

My goal is January 20, 2009, hence license tag: [PREZ 09]

While on a recent business trip to Salem, New Hampshire to assist a friend finalize his Response to a Massachusetts RFR, I had opportunity to talk with many people not only on the 10-hour train ride for the experience, but also in several local venues.

 Bickfords and Franks Barber shop where my announcement was heard by few, but many.

 What I learned from both Republicans and Democrats is that most don't believe in any of the expressed candidates that media has hyped.  In fact being challenged by all for being a relatively unknown was a great way to introduce my website www.genezarwell4president.us through a modified signature "Million Dollar bill".

 Only two Democrats refused a bill, at first.  After less than 10 minutes, they wanted them.  After all, its serial number is a link to this nation's future.

 A common question was "could a Republican win?"

 Answering that made sense to all realizing all others claiming experience in failure and fraud as good qualities to be President.  Not one of them has ever created gross profits or jobs to build revenue generators.  Those in private sector were percentage professionals taking a piece from others and giving a piece of that to government.

 Think about that awareness a second. 

 1. Democrats themselves told me that before women could win, there would be a black President, but they couldn't name one who has entered with credentials supporting our nations legacy - private enterprise - initial label.

 2. Cogitate this thought: why would anyone risk their positions, now, when government is so against letting companies create profit. Hence; that 20 sec NASDAQ bump or merger balloon is an active career goal for many here and abroad.

 3. To Congress, profits are sinful or against any tenant of socialism where people should be dependent upon government handouts.  It baffles me to wonder where they think the money comes from.

 4. Talking with couples about their life styles, young and old, most want control themselves.  Others seek unearned wealth, and few want to be labeled as criminals for life choices. 

 5. Listening to them tells me we are not educating our legacy properly.  It takes parents to raise a child not communities.  There are basic values, choices that need to be made based upon honorable motives, and respect for others not just tolerance.

 6. Our Police officers should be playing checkers, not high-speed chases on city streets or being challenged by young people in gunfights.

 7. Business leaders are not to excited about paying into a healthcare system where four levels of management create bankruptcy and foreclosure for their workers or retirees who contributed to profits. 

 8. Those with medical needs must wait or be denied over accounting firms and insurance company decisions to let them die for cost reasons.  Sad that bonuses over one million dollars are given to those denying claims to save premiums for greed.

 9. Media has drained most of government's energy out from under Congress secret organization of frauds spending our hard earned money - by exposing how mandatory additional benefits from corporate profits will destroy American resolve.

 However, they do like those "Super Bowl" budgets they projected for 2007-2008.

 Several voices in Amtrak's cafe car compared their vast experiences from and in other countries as "open to business" profits and building their hope and dreams through US Foreign aid give-aways (subject of several previous CoffeeTalks).

 In Frank's Barber Shop, several patrons were energized by a new face that spoke about private sector values without government micro management. 

 In fact, it should be reversed. 

 Private sector needs to demand that government be accountable when receiving percentages of profits through lobbyists and taxes.  It is Congress' task - for prudent management of America's wealth to provide infrastructure, common services, and a secure environment allowing Americans to compete globally.

 As an oversight branch of government, Congress charter is to manage funding to assure it is not used for other than those activities required to provide an opportunity for Americans to pursue Happiness (in short).  It has been "unfunctional" for way too many years.

 What I offered to these people is that "the next President of the United States must have been and know how to spell and pronounce; "Entrepreneur" - source for creating profits and jobs so people can pay taxes for services they don't receive."

 Most agreed with a "Yah, you got that right!"

Televising from her home in New York, Hillary Clinton endorsed ongoing Bush plan for Iraq with such gusto that I believe she thought it was her idea. 
 
This is much like Joe Biden's and several other Democrats who have no clue using word-smithing to make themselves feel important and knowledgeable.
 
In academia, it is called "Plagiarism"
 
Her caveat:  there are 15 months between my rhetoric and when our next President takes responsibility. 
 
Her promise is that she will think about how to reform what she couldn't in the past and take all her failures into account to push an agenda to reduce costs of healthcare for Congress by bringing new money from private sector without ever addressing how to strengthen personal responsibility or individual priority rather than her concept that it takes a community to raise a family.
 
It didn't work in her family.
 
Her horse laugh told us all the camera was in the wrong place.

Not sure about your income.  Well, democrats are out to get it from you.  One leading candidate wants to give tax cuts 'cause they work to build our economy.  Another one wants to mandate that employers provide healthcare programs.  Companies want Unions to manage benefits for their members, and business owners want to make profits.
 
Does anyone see a conflict of interests in any of these discussions.
 
Not one candidate for President announced so far has even expressed interest in allowing private sector entrepreneurs to earn profits or even provide dividends for their employees or investors.
 
Private sector taxpayers pay the bills in this country.  Congress takes a big percentage of that money for government services of which 85 percent pays government entitlements to them, not private sector workers, employers or services required to maintain a business.
 
If everyone is to be provided benefits from private sector profits, shouldn't we be sure they can provide products and services that create profits rather than losses that require "government bailouts"?  There isn't one real businessman who wants government to decide how he creates profits or value to our Nation's economy.
 
Communities gripe about their school systems not performing up to par, and teachers tell us they don't have books and supplies, but Unions claim their teachers members are certified, yet our kids are getting educated at levels needed to compete on a global scales against those students in other countries.
 
Immigrant kids come here with excellent schooling experiences in most cases.  They're disciplined, eager to learn and are bored beyond that which should be acceptable because classroom situations focus on lowest common denominator rather than on the brightest.  Yes, we will not leave anyone behind.  We just won't let anyone get ahead of those who just don't get it.
 
How many of you would rather be financially secure, under your own control with optimism and opportunity rather looking forward to government subsidies for your survival without a focus on your pursuit for Happiness?
 
That's what's at stake with this crop of Presidential candidates -  none has any experience to create private sector value, wealth or opportunity.

Dan:
This is a serious thought provoking question I ask myself a hundred times a day. A cursory view is that us taxpayers have been paying for government services for so long without real prudence in operations to position us forward. Too many entitlement programs for non-workers and too many government careerists who do not contribute to our economy without "snow days" of which there are too few.

Americans are losing a grip around the world through inadequate asset management ILO returns from hypothetical symptoms of economic disaster. In simple terms, 'we throw dollars on a fire instead of water to put out a fire '.

There is no formal forward planning done until a disaster strikes, because we have been spared devastation so many times our local and state governments are complacent as long as Washington politicians are dumb enough to shell out Federal dollars as remedy for not planning ahead.

Our precedents for relief are over exaggerated wealth being given out for failure to hold local officials accountable during their tenure and definitely in their prudent use of state and local resources to prevent such short-term emergency planning. When I studied at Wisconsin and went out into the world, we looked twenty years ahead taking into consideration 3-4 percent inflation, 7 percent growth in profits, and market opportunities after World War II well into the seventies. 

Today planning has been through several cycles from 20 to 15 years down to five years and after 1999 down to 20 minutes on NASDAQ or NYSE. There is no forward thinking except from percentage professionals trading someone else's wealth for a piece of it and that other bunch of percentage professionals split what's left - in court.

Our government agencies within each Cabinet Department have become a political appointee's worst nightmare because of Congressional corruptness and favored industry pressure through lobbyists who now represent almost every one of the 190 nations around The World seeking USD's to compete with Americans with a small share of than money actually reaching those it is intended for.

While our Congress demonstrates to The World how corrupt politics pays off; it is mirrored from border to border and people to people.

My experience in many of these matters through contract work, employment and assistance has given me a knack to identifying that essence within people to accomplish their goals. This is not just setting lower goals but standards and objective rarely attained by many. It is pinpointing that very goal and all the steps to achieve it and not being willing to give up.

That's leadership and others will follow.

Unfortunately, because government can raise big bucks, everyone working there expects the same. A monthly attendee and a county commission meeting wants $89,000 a year while most governors up through the early seventies were only paid $25,000. Average mean income as reported recently is now getting close to $55,000 with a poverty level at $17,000. 

Yet a majority of workers earn less in service industries, manufacturing is close to $100,000 and percentage professionals top $2-4 million giving us that unrealistic median of $55,000 based upon current deflated buying power- less than 10 cents on the '50 dollar.

There is an optimistic future if that one person who can sort through all those sales pitches to come up with programs necessary to retain a powerful leadership position globally without a permanent war economy. Reagan gave us one, Clinton milked it, and Bush used that time tested war economy to sustain a growth after 9-11.

This globe needs to be connected so resources from one area of any hemisphere can benefit from any other. To do this we need people to find their niche (essence) and integrate that into actions that can create products, produce, materials, and services where and when needed. We need small governments that will secure and provide a strong economic climate for which entrepreneurs can thrive and develop those technologies to keep this globe spinning until all our astrophysical fears are proven wrong (colliding asteroids, global warming, floods and rains, etc).

It's impossible when thinking of goals and tasks through objectives to create a scheme to accomplish rather than tear down. We closed our eyes to what was happening for 8 years in our last decade of the 20th Century. We sure better not use that as our base of planning beyond 2009.

This is serious business putting together a Government, By The people, and For The People instead of one so famously claimed Of The People that left them dependent.

For my entire life, I have taken stands for "We The People" to form a more perfect union and that opportunity is now for me. I know others' use my words for failure to have any depth of their own, but that ceases this month after filing in confirmed at FEC and RNC.

to be continued...

I been there , done that , and need to fix what others haven't.

Hi,

Do you keep a Diary?

Why do you want to become President of the United States?

I never asked you these questions.

I think it is a use less job. The country runs it self. If you become president it is like being a man that cleans up a latrine. No one really wants the job. I know someone has to do it. I suppose, why not you.

We need a dictator. No let me see, we need nothing. 

I do not understand??

Subject: Official duties = Soverign immunity

et al.:

 

Flagrant fraud in Maryland's regulatory circles has always been a problem in building a State gross product.  To some it builds careers, other's, hardship, to most it drives creativity underground and offshore.  Headlines of heroes taking on small entrepreneurs drives major employers south to out-source where regulations support rather than intimidate through vagaries about creation or production that create cash flows and jobs.  

 

Elementary factor necessary to build a tax base is a State Gross Product created through "Profits" not percentage of Federal dependence. 

 

This shining example from The Due Process Institute is currently destroying credibility of "regulation" and driving Maryland's taxpaying workers to look elsewhere.

 

This is a Summary of Analysis to a Maryland Securities Commission "Show Cause Order" posted on www.oag.state.md.us/Securities/ prior to discovery, deposition, or proof any State or Federal Regulations have been violated.  It is almost humorous in its approach to intimidation for personal gain and celebrity.
 
Summary ---  
 

In its zeal for a high profile case for future power struggles within its justice system and to thwart economic development in Maryland’s private sector, Commissioners (appointed assistant attorney generals) upcoming lawyers in our public sector, followed Commissioner Lubin’s call to rout out a prominent, published authority in seed capital formation for startup entrepreneurs.

 

This flagrant use of commission resources to intercede within portfolio company disputes created by players in a hostile take over and in-house disputes among investors seeking to contain entrepreneurs, within a slave relationship to securities brokers and securities lawyers violates any sense of government regulation.

 

Through trumped up and false accusations, Maryland Commissioner Lubin appears to have learned from Attorneys General J. J. Curran, Jr., tactics of building non-cases with hope emotional misinformation will produce headlines about business profit potentials of entrepreneurs being basically a bad thing.

 

Maryland’s economic growth depends upon small business entrepreneurs to create private sector jobs to balance public sector spending.  Under previous administrations in which Curran’s cap on growth produced cronyism in contracting and budget deficits due to increasing public wages for civil servants, a message sent forth was that major corporations could thrive better elsewhere. 

 

Respondent in this case, actually, played a major role in developing Maryland agencies for a sole purpose of helping ingenious entrepreneurs learn how to obtain initial capital to create production and potential gross State product. 

 

Killing the messenger did not work in Rome's empirical government and won’t work in a dependent democracy becoming socialist.  Instead, fraudulent regulated securities brokers and officers of those very courts created to protect private interests,  Commissioners used that self-proclaimed power to destroy success and individual motivation to instead create jobs dependent upon Federal funding of Maryland’s workforce – which of course does not create profits from which taxes can be collected to pay State bills.

 

A case of this nature cannot be prosecuted because no securities regulations were violated.  Commissioners only hope is to trip up respondents to build a case for media consumption and best way to do this is through posting pre-hearing documents on Internet sights like that cited above with strong language, threats and misleading charges that cannot stand up in any court without intimidation of those targeted. 

 

More credible disclosure would be to post results instead of speculation on sites such as  "noticeoffindings.info"

 

By using public media to destroy personal credibility of authorities in building productive economies, The State destroys its ability to self-fund its government infrastructure.  However, through this vision, Commissioners think government payrolls return tax dollars while heroes get paid more for stopping private wealth building.

 

In this case, damages to those attempting to build wealth under state and Federal guidelines with immensely more paper trail and disclosure than required are being disrespected by Commissioners who take up sides with perpetrators of phony take-over and containment of company founders for personal greed because they are percentage professionals who will probably pay-off Maryland’s regulators – poor risk.

 

Through this intimidation, Commissioners seek a future, but its effect on Maryland’s economy is stagnation and a greater retreat from visibility to outsourcing elsewhere in more favorable business environments.

  

Bottom line is that Respondent is punished for being more in tune with Securities regulations and needs of entrepreneurs.  Respondent guided those agency developments to build a positive, sustaining economy and now has lost during, these illegal, fraudulent tactics, much of its credibility over false charges with no substance regarding assistance provided to its portfolio company clients.

 

Hope by Commissioners is that Respondent will cave under pressure to settle in favor of commission fraud in public media creating regulating heroes seeking career growth in a socialist society.

 

Instead Respondents, having refused to build a phony case, have taken a high road to force disclosure of any violations Commissioners have evidence of by issuers or portfolio companies being blamed on Respondents who are facilitators of business development and not securities brokers, agents or issuers.

 

A reasonable amount to settle this case in favor of Respondent is upwards of $15,000,000 for lost business, pending legal fees and redevelopment costs of its business base.  Commissioners found to be participants in Commissioner Lubin’s fraud will have to take personal responsibility for this settlement if The State determines it is outside of its constitutional definition of “official duties” that prevents sovereign immunity.

 

History shows that Maryland's tactic is to ignore and deceive our judiciary into dismissing on fraudulent substitute cases by redirecting defendants from The State of Maryland to unrelated private sector entities - such a high visibility case is finally in Federal Court of Appeals outside of Maryland's corrupt Judicial environment after moving slowly through every level of court in our U.S. Justice system - why it may succeed is no statute of limitations for "fraud on the court" (a Federal Felony action),  on the part of Former Maryland Attorney General J. J. Curran, Jr. and collusion with his pocketed Chief Justice.

 

There are several examples of where State elected and appointed officials operated “outside of the law” failing to meet “sovereign immunity” and have removed themselves from under J.J. Curran’s lead while he reigned as Maryland’s Attorney General. All are now happily retired or moved on to private sector opportunities.

WHY DID TOMMY THOMPSON LOUSE HIS RUN FOR THE PRESIDENCY???? [sent in by Dan]
 
Answer:  He had no vision and lacked direction.  He announced as an actor like Reagan.  As former Governor of Wisconsin he wound up in Tennessee.  Never held a fiduciary position anywhere.  When you have to fight to get asked a question in a debate, it's a sign nobody values your opinions especially if you cannot back it up with experience or resolve. This description fits all of our current cache of candidates:
 
(1) no vision
(2) no direction
(3) much political baggage
(4) no focus
(5) no fiduciary responsibility
(6) no military command experience
(7) no economic/business strategic planning
(8) less communications skills than a teenager on the Internet
(9) no charisma
(10) no media skills for sound bites
(11) much deceit and felony perjury
(12) no financial prudence
(13) no understanding as ethical or moral role models 
 
This list is getting too long of why it won't work to position U.S. Future through one of these "politicians".
 
Now Democrats have only one thing going for them.  A lame duck President who they think they can intimidate and destroy his resolve. 
 
All meet my above listed skills as well, requiring they all wear fireman's boots to sell their experience bilking American taxpayers for benefits to non-taxpayers (wage earners vs. freeloaders).  All of Dem Presidential wannabes have "neyt" Executive  experience and have never made a decision other than those affecting themselves - and, from both sides of all discussions.
 
Current debate platforms give all of them more time to recant, distort, and redirect previous criticism under guise they think we care about their lack of focus, lack of direction, lack of vision, and lack of ethical skills inherently entrusted to them as representatives in Congress.
 
Media has given up on trying to ask real questions about real issues and have resorted to bloggers for questions that are as relevant to electing a dog catcher as they are to electing Congress.
 
In discussions with their backers, they always go back 30-20 years worth of International history, that for most has passed and those who were featured as well.
 
We are dealing with a whole new psyche on a global stage.  History has its teachings, but media today compress all that to 7-15 sec bites and photo opts. Only someone who has been in positions to research and advise on several alternative assessments of reactions and effects can lead with certainty or resolve. 
 
President is leader by position, but Executive direction to Cabinet and Government agencies requires delegation with focus on smart use of resources and assets within fiscal constraints to succeed even in war. 
 
When do you use your last bullet and for what purpose?
 
Hope this helps.

How shallow does a candidate have to be to say nothing of substance. Answers in ABC's Republican debate left much to be desired because most were lacking any judgment or decision making skill to address a vision or an issue facing our society as a whole. 
 
It was like their staffers read Coffeetalks, but had no clue beyond a lead-in. 
 
Most unexpected comment following this Iowa Debate in preparation for this weeks "Straw Poll" was that no candidate who declared or promised to declare a candidacy had a vision or a "can do" ambition for America.
 
They were all defending their media imposed perceptions without addressing; why they want to be President? or, What they think the job is? or, what will be their contribution based upon previous successes or experienced accomplishments?
 
How lame a field we have, there isn't even a choice about which one is lesser of all evils.
 
Now, take Democrats for instance, they proclaim experience, yet none have chaired a business, non-profit, or even created a job outside of personal staffers.  Not one has had executive experience!
 
There is a candidate anxiously waiting for candidate self-destruction to cull this field of incompetents down to a choice of "substance" or "superficial".  That choice will be astounding not only for our citizens; but will rekindle respect for American leadership offering common sense rather than emotional defensive nonsense.

Encouraging government dependency and inept statesmanship through blogs and attempts to identify with inexperience has me wondering if tough decisions about United States security and market positioning takes a back seat to secular socialism as rejected by 15+ CIS Republics and a Federation under Soviet dominance for 70 years.
 
With campaign season just around the corner, we have heard which non-issues they want to sell you without addressing our needs, wants, desires or even approach leadership in directing our entrepreneur climate to create jobs in a globally competitive marketplace.
 
Front runners selling their souls to show how low they can go only works in Caribbean dances  - Limbo.
 
Office of President is not about how low you can go or how many laws you are above; or, what you can get away with.  It is about performing leadership with resolve, dignity, experience, knowledge, legitimacy, responsibility, and trustworthiness that not only citizens of these United States, but also other leaders of smaller citizen bases with resolve to compete against number one.
 
Avis was always pronouncing their position as number two against leader Hertz #1. 
 
All the others became profitable from that competition as easy as an athlete who runs behind until the end, or, a fourth quarter "Hail Mary", maybe even a full-court three-pointer.  Let's not forget that last Ace from Venus Williams, either.
 
Tiger has taught us all that winning is important as long as you set up for the win.  He wins on Saturday for momentum going into a Sunday win.  Sergio showed us how to lead all week and lose Sunday as his game was challenged by a local in the British Open.  Padrag Harrington had support of his neighbors and his nation of Ireland.
 
Congress and our clowns never set a stage for a win.  They are self-consumed in their own celebrity as their handlers make them feel secure.  Well, their handlers have one goal - to make at least $500,000 to $1 million dollars selling non-issues to our media like products off a shelf. 
 
Years ago, on grocers shelves, red boxes sold best against all other colors.  Then, all boxes were red and nothing competed except blue or yellow.  Today, color means little in marketing because products have extreme visibility for name recognition from electronic and print media. 
 
Ninety-percent of what is sold relies on name recognition and selling a desire consumers may identify with.  Ninety-eight percent of those products are not necessary or needed, but sold to those who think they are "status" symbols. 
 
Congress and its members sell everyday on ideas and issues we don't need, want or desire from our government.  Those concerns need to be addressed in communities, neighborhoods, and at most by citizens in independent counties.  It is not politically correct to have "common good" over "common sense". 
 
In soviet times, everyone dressed alike.  Everyone earned same sustenance wages.  Government controlled their life style, possessions, and took away their God given conscience.  It has taken better than 15 years to gain individual strength and courage to compete in many of those CIS nations (Republics).  And, Mother Russia is on a track to become a globally dominant Super Power in economic recovery through marketing of its natural resources.
 
"YouTube" and media debates have absolutely no insight or even concern for these United States in its proclaimed "Me First" and "It must be legal until I get caught" philosophy.
 
As fast as "The World Turns", we need serious leaders assessing current status, with historic perspective and forward thinking.  Americans don't need "clowns' addressing media issues attempting to form public opinion polls to sell advertising.
 
If everyone supported their neighborhood support teams - schools, merchants, police, medical professionals, churches, and councils, then their needs would be addressed and society would develop in their favor. 
 
Relying on another neighborhood's performance begins that cycle of dependence that has taken America backwards through failing infrastructure and public policy giving elected and appointed politicians wealth over providing infrastructure and services; i.e.: road repair, electric power grids, school supplies, trash collection, healthy water vs. dead water, jobs through entrepreneur opportunities, police who wouldn't need to take risks to enforce ridiculous laws, but instead be there to help in fighting intruders, preventing thefts, and in general protecting citizen rights to personal property and freedom from intimidation, harassment, and domestic violence.
 
When energy is no longer available to everyone, we will need that wooden stick with lead in it topped by a rubber delete button to communicate.  Forget paper, trees and plants create oxygen from carbon dioxide if we let them stand tall.  Well, you probably thought "that wooden stick comes from trees", dummy; so does that delete button.

Media and pundants keep wishing for a candidate with substance. 

Unfortunately as it is, so are we taxpayers hoping someone with substance will replace each and everyone of those in Congress who live on our most expensive welfare program - Congressional pay, pork and perversion.
 
Even candidates are hoping someone will define real issues because these non-issues being debated have no relevance with our Constitution or foundation of our free society. 
 
Words most often spoken by "Congressional members' (candidates for white house or reelection to Senate and House) are; "When I get all the facts I'll know what I'm talking about!"- attributed to about 533 of the 535 members of Congress; and "My position is I'll say anything to get support for the win" - Rep Ron Paul and paraphrased by Joe Biden, Ted Kennedy, John Kerry, Hillary Clinton, Rudy Giuliani, John McCain, and John Edwards.
 
Reporting under $200 contributions from many contributors is easy when all money comes for one source.  Under $200 does not require accountability.  So, offshore money is then immune from restriction as long as it is cash and virtually untraceable.  Be cautious of unqualified candidates motives reporting astronomical amounts maybe more questionable than their viability.
 
Republicans are seen two ways by media; (1) without a candidate with substance, and (2) they can win 'cause Democrats have no real issues and are running against a lame duck President instead of projecting a vision for our country.
 
A friend of mine claims that Politics has no value and is meaningless without any impact to how our nation thrives.  And, so, he ignores what impacts upon our citizenry who produce what others create.  He is not a member of congress who sometimes ignore those same ideals.
 
Vision is most important with resolve to accomplish objectives to meet our goals.  There is only one potential candidate that I know of with that vision and who has experience to back it up.  He is an Entrepreneur who knows how to pronounce and spell it.
 
It is too early for him to jump into our "Campaign Circus", dubbed by media today, as early claims to stakes begin to dwindle from over whelming nonsense and self celebrity status.
 
Politics is not a science, neither a passion, nor profession and definitely not for entertainment.  There is nothing scientific about fraudulent voting.  Passion is not protecting elitism.  Profession requires ethics, loyalty, integrity, legitimacy and honor to service.
 
Name one member of Congress who has retained any of these characteristics while taking your tax money in return for that promised in our Constitution.
 
It's time to get serious, and not the radio, to preserve this union of independent states under a National banner known throughout both our "free and third world nations" as "The United States".  These 50 states governed independent of a central power have common goals that through common sense will make good on those basic promises in our founding father's Charter.
 
I get challenged on many political views to which my answers are declared "right on" or "understandable" by those who ask.  In most cases those who ask have no insight to frame a question for a response and are normally looking to challenge any point of view in support of their inability to frame an answerable question.
 
Media is good at that and then taking 2-15 words out of context to state non-fact and hold out of context accountability of those misstated (misquoted) statements.  Candidates in most cases have no introspect into issues that are relevant to life and freedom in America.
 
It is time to redirect America's concerns, a global vision, and to position ourselves in an evolving scheme of globalization as either a influential leader or as an independent market place isolated from 189 other nations.  It is time to realize that bickering and dependency create no respect, wealth or happiness without dedication, hard work, and moral values.  It takes creators to produce goods with support systems for service to allow personal growth in all aspects in life. 
 
Our quality of life is being challenged around the world by "new Nations" using profits from American ingenuity to create extremely upscale environments while we defend our resolve and ignore or destiny as we become what they used to be.  It started in 1994 with failed policy in Healthcare and Social Security reforms that would never be adequate to provide "cradle to grave dependency upon government" without private sector participation or intervention.
 
Lame promises are neither a vision for America nor a future for a title role in globalization.   Percentage Professionals cannot create wealth or provide stability because they rely on others creations and production in order to get a percentage.  Not to be outdone, Congress tries to get a bigger share as well, thus, investors see an opportunity to take control before that perceived wealth goes to an elite few.  Thus, wealth development stagnates until lower costs of production create higher profits providing opportunity to reduce prices and become competitive to emerging global markets and "cash register alliances".
 
Wake up voters -  your future begins this moment on....

rhetoric going nowhere

Sent: Friday, June 29, 2007 2:26 PM

Subject: 

et al.:
Seems Democrats cannot agree on one issue.   All they want to do is exert pressure on our Executive Branch  at expense of taxpaying constituents.
 
It may not seem correct to disenfranchise reverse discrimination, but forty years ago it was alright to impose desegregation because neighborhood schools couldn't meet curriculum standards.  Today, teachers are all fully certified by their unions to be adequately trained and competent to teach in their neighborhoods.
 
Yet, life skills are missing from academics given to alternative studies at early ages before basic skills have been taught.  It is obvious that "X" and "Y" generation have lost sight of following instructions, directives or can even comprehend traffic signs - so, governments over regulate them without enforcement.
 
In school, teaching has given way to letting students dictate what they will tolerate, and how much they can get away with before someone questions their competency.
 
Think of tax money savings (approximately 85%) from no more litigation over school bus accidents; less snow days due to traffic conditions; less peer pressures to bullying, and better standards for grade level competitiveness without adjusting for lowest common denominator.  It will be neighborhoods deciding school decorum, academic strengths, and skill levels, rather than Congress codling social activists.
 
I think Justice Roberts stated quite clearly; "the way to achieve a system of determining admission to the public schools on a nonracial basis,' is to stop assigning students on a racial basis. The way to stop discrimination on the basis of race is to stop discriminating on the basis of race."
 
I've never had a problem with respecting others racially, ethnically, or financially, as long as they are responsible, legitimate, and loyal to those they associate.   I have seen leadership violate every one of those tenants for "special interests" (bribes) as long as they need not comply.
 
Another recent headline that is very disturbing is Congressional inquiry into Executive privilege.  Before they pursue our Executive Branch, they should clean up their act and actually propose amendment free legislation giving taxpayers a break from fraudulent expenditures.
 
Communities need neighborhood schools along with neighborhood elected representatives from their neighborhoods with staffers from their districts not imported percentage professionals of little value to other than regulators attempting to keep entrepreneurs from building personal wealth through hard work creating jobs and partnerships with honest, loyal workers wanting to share in P&L (more "P" and limited "L").
 
There has always been temptation to screw over others with threats and intimidation. 
 
After WW II, it subsided until Congress took new initiatives to change behavior.  Companies became corporations and an SEC was born to regulate investments and tax reporting.  Business leaders understood those laws and diversified around restrictions - hence, get away with it until caught.   Then Congress imposed more regulations until enough was enough and deregulation was their claim, but never made good.
 
Today, business is more honorable than our self proclaimed leadership.  Unfortunately, they are not respected by those seeking handouts - media (political advertising), activists (lobbying monies), members of Congress (bribes and favors below  FEC radar), and a non productive society ("cradle to grave" Government dependency).
 
In 2008, taxpayers in our private sector will elect someone who has been, and can spell, and pronounce "Entrepreneur"; def: individuals creating opportunities to employ individuals who pay taxes that pay for government services."  Only fallacy in this statement is that government services no longer exist for taxpaying constituents.
 
Why is Congress going after President Bush for policies President Clinton created?  Why is media supporting a socialistic agenda espoused by Democrat contenders for The White House?  Anyone find a Republican candidate with a vision beyond replacing Democracy with Socialism or with a dream to build a leadership team on a global scheme by forming a more perfect union, establish justice, insure domestic tranquility, provide for the common defence, promote the general welfare and secure the blessings of liberty to ourselves and our posterity?
 
It seems to me they are just hiding under rocks and behind trees to see if lightening will strike hoping media lights will suffer a black out.
 
There is so much that needs to be done here at home, that "We The People" need to consider other than non-issues for reporting media rhetoric going nowhere.  And, most of all we need to consider someone "outside the box" of Congress where nothing gets done in favor of "We The People".

1. lesser of all evils
    Posted by: "GZarwell" gzarwell@ccconline.net g_zarwell
    Date: Fri Jun 15, 2007 7:00 am ((PDT))

et al.:

Traveling down our Eastern Seaboard recently, I learned a majority of people want something other than what Congress has produced as Presidential Candidates.  No matter what media describes as front runners and power brokers, working people want someone who knows how to create jobs so people can pay taxes for services and security so desperately need in America.
 
Even media reports about recent debates says there's no one who understands what Americans want or need.
 
Debated issues are nonsense.  Most of what declared candidates profess they "think they know" how to resolve have been debated since Washington's first election.  Truth is they are emotional fund raising tools that don't make a difference.
 
What is more dissatisfying is that most people see no difference between either party's rhetoric.  All of it nonsense from a lack of understanding who pays for government.
 
Even media pundants are waiting for that right candidate who does know.
 
Our next President will have been an entrepreneur who knows how to spell it and pronounce it understanding that it is entrepreneurs who create jobs for people so they can pay taxes to those who don not, but are willing to throw good money to bad in our developing egalitarian (may be wrong word or no word - but makes a point) society for elitists of percentage professionals to drain our individual wealth and esteem.
 
In a recent poll of working people, there is no support for either party's candidates, and some even believe a third party wealthy candidate couldn't muster enough votes to overcome our faulty electoral system with its programmable voting machines and fraudulent state agencies projecting votes instead of counting them.
 
I will announce today that a resolute candidate will appear before lost hope turns to "lesser of all evils.

Date: Fri, 25 May 2007 08:49:03 -0400
From: "GZarwell" <gzarwell@ccconline.net 
Subject: proudly The Flag 

et al.:
Memorial Day weekend 2007 has a whole new spin. Instead of honoring our troops for their sacrifices, leading Presidential Candidates put their self-interests ahead of yours and your loved ones.

In my eyes, it is despicable for non-serving "patriots" to use our destiny as self-serving wedges for their socialist - communist views. Waving a flag and stating as Pelosi proclaims on behalf of her lame Congress that supporting the Iraqi people has a new front here at home - a war of Congress against our Commander in chief has just egun says it all. 

Paul Revere had it right, Pelosi in her complicity has it all wrong. "We The People" are not the enemy. We are becoming victims of spin doctors feeding lawyers false truths to circumvent reality under a guise that they represent us - frauds, them all looking for 15 minutes of fame and a legacy of celebrity.

Proclaiming that 3,850 members of our National Guard, Reserve Forces, and active units died protecting Congress lack of resolve isn't worth supporting, tells us very clearly that not one sitting member of either house in Congress is worthy of our votes. 

In fact, do our votes even matter, since Clinton's $140 million contract to build fraudulent voting machines with rigged software allowing preset voting return percentages, like slot machines, will deny American citizens' right to vote while disentrancing registered voters in favor of corrupt lawyers seeking an elitist society of desperate, dependent step rather than building a society around a civilization of entrepreneurs building wealth and enjoying individual happiness.

I for one will proudly fly The flag, but not the one given me by my Congressman, this weekend in honor of our fallen troops and those sons and daughters whose mothers chose differently than did mine.

Yes, we have a campaign of media greed for political dollars to meet their fiscal projections of $1.6 Billion instead of political public service over "We The Peoples' air waves. 

"We The People" through our FCC gave them a right to broadcast in our best interests and they turned that into a farce beyond any respectable definition of truth, honesty, and objective reporting- concepts I learned at The University of Wisconsin about this over-rated, pricy media of unearned celebrity.

"We The People" also believed that another regulatory agency would protect our rights to vote. 

Our FEC is only interested in targeting those who support those challenging incumbents for a seat in "The People's House." It has no desire to seek fairness according to broadcasting's "Fairness Doctrine", or to those who watch and listen to our media espousing trash, displaying soft porn in prime time to our kids, while discrediting 86 percent of our populations beliefs and faith.

Perhaps, this Memorial Day we should remember what our ancestors built with sweat and tears, wars and battles right here on our soil and thank our moms for their decisions and not those of whom would decide another way.

If you read this, then thank you grandmom for instilling value into your mom and dad's beliefs and honor your late relatives who fought to keep WW I, WW II, and Al Queda off our soil.

1. worker wealth and happiness?
    Posted by: "GZarwell" gzarwell@ccconline.net g_zarwell
    Date: Mon May 21, 2007 7:45 am ((PDT))

et al.:
Listening to this morning's headlines from  pundants and experts, it was enlightening to learn that our plans in Iraq are going as envisioned during those Reagan years of planning.  Several retired Generals discussed General Petraeous skill in implementing a scattered skirmish doctrine as identified in 1983 by that current Joint Chief's of Staff.
 
Our world was destined to go from isolationism to globalization by year 2000.  Remarkably, it did and cash register receipts became more important that battlefield war.
 
For what ever reasons, many blame President Bush for not selling Americans on doctrinal change commonly called anti-war protest by a mother who dishonors her son telling us our national security is not precious while globalization replaces U.S. co-defense programs with more media correct nonsense calling our alliances as out-sourcing rather than its reality as a broad co-production program to keep adversaries connected to U.S.  weapons systems needing spare parts thus, relying on their ally, namely America.
 
Globalization is building alliances between South America and Asia, Europe and Eastern Europe with middle east and Africa against American dominance in free markets and strong economies with a weakening dollar (short term a weak dollar promotes foreign investments and favorable trade balances). 
 
In reality, foreign investors are buying U.S. Dollars instead of manufactured or harvested products while our Congress bickers over whose legal and who's not.
 
Unfortunately, Congress thought they could Bush Bash to ensure Americans didn't rally behind their own future of wealth and Happiness, so it could continue its ruse of common good  ignoring common sense.  And, of course media always backs their sponsors or advertisers hoping upon hope that enough candidates get into a 2008 race to pay media advertising projected to be $1.6 billion in fiscal year 2008. 
 
How can they be so sure?  They can't because their premise is that money selects candidates  and media is believable.  In truth it takes recount votes from constituents that thanks to Bill Clinton's $140 million voting machine farce may prevent any opportunity to count cast votes in 2008.  An effort our FEC is lame to explain.
 
As cold war relations became neutralized by 1989, it was evident that radical forces kept in ancient cultures would intimately retaliate to protect their tyrannies and power to bilk rich western nations of their wealth through intimidation and terror with over priced oil and other minerals of nature.  Their planning began immediately after 1992 elections as a weak kneed President took office.
 
Sad, it was working through the nineties with Americans being naive about how serious terrorists wanted to destroy modern civilization with its preoccupation of lust, greed and material values and of course its obsession with sex out of wedlock.  It was a conceived religious immorality conflicting with several thousand years of imposed moral thinking to deny pleasures of humanity.
 
Rome, Sodom and Gomorrah are historical references to decadence bringing governments to their end.  It takes about 200 years to develop an elitist society where government takes from the poor to create a wealthy class with no responsibility.
 
Status report is that Americans are close to that reality.  Just listen to how Congress debates behavior of the masses as not lived by those sitting in Washington.  Every issue has a price tag requiring more taxes to pay for non-services and denial of Constitutional rights.
 
Our congress is debating very indifferent issues that have no relevance to how Americans create value or happiness, but rather more and more control of our behavior and wealth through phony regulations and rules denying those who earn to reap their rewards. 
 
Sure our wages have increased, but our cost of living has increased faster dropping value from 98 percent to less than ten percent of value.
 
Economists say it is good with inflation at low levels, but today it was requested by media types that corporations increase wages for their workers to provide ever rising food prices without one serious notation that wage increases are reflected in prices, so there is no understanding of why prices keep going up.
 
Doesn't anyone understand that corporations, small businesses,  need to make profits to support fraudulent government regulations favoring pricy luxuries for elitists has priority over worker wealth and happiness?

2. ...words that define our nation...
    Posted by: "GZarwell" gzarwell@ccconline.net g_zarwell
    Date: Sat May 12, 2007 3:16 am ((PDT))

et al.:
These are the words that defined our nation in 1776 as signed by 56 patriots.  This is an excerpt from our "Declaration of Independence".

Read for its wisdom in forming this great government and how those same reasons challenge us today to institute a new government with a true separation of power keeping Lawyers within our Supreme Court, Representatives of the people in Congress -non attorneys, and an Executive to manage government with advise and counsel from those Senators representing individual and independent states countered by a house or representatives - each representing a community of 500,000 citizens (English speaking, value producers, law abiding, documented citizens) that bring wants and desires from "We The People" to our Executive Branch.

"We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.--That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, --That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness. Prudence, indeed, will dictate that Governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes; and accordingly all experience hath shewn, that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed. But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security.--Such has been the patient sufferance of these Colonies; and such is now the necessity which constrains them to alter their former Systems of Government."

These are two of nine facts justifying setting up our nation's independent government. 

"For imposing Taxes on us without our Consent:
For depriving us in many cases, of the benefits of Trial by Jury:"

Our government has most recently violated "We The People" by ignoring national resolve by going back on their word to provide for our security while using our hard earned monies for their personal gain creating high paying non-productive bureaucracies that deny us an opportunity to experience Happiness knowing our taxes are used in a prudent way to create an environment for our personal wealth and happiness. 

Through Congressional interference our privacy, right to life (encouraging chemical toxins over natural substances) is being controlled, while our individual freedoms are being usurped for elitist rule as legislation accumulates to control behavior and society without accountability, but instead precedent from unacceptable correctness and decorum. 

It used to be acceptable to "treat others as they would treat you".  However, that's changed to "I can do anything to you as long as I don't get caught".   Were you aware that for every law there is a counter law for purposes of "pork" and circumvention before the Court?

I offer this discussion for one purpose only - redirect our government to "We The People" and let those lawyers practice somewhere else instead of in our Congress.  We need serious people, with real experience in developing and implementing strategic plans for our common sense defense and allow each state to care and nurture its community without heavy imposition upon our common services and needs. 

Common sense does not require defining a common good, but does require responsibility to create personal wealth for family Happiness; that if accomplished, will allow personal charity to help those needing a helping hand to also create personal wealth and Happiness.

It is not government's role to control our lives or provide "cradle to grave" support.  It is government's role to create an environment for opportunity to pursue Happiness with an understanding that we have certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life and Liberty, too.

Important is that our Congress is not at our beck and call.  It derives its power by our consent, but no empty suit is listening to other than media polls of 1,000 people with a 35 percent imbalance and a 3-5 percent error.  Those are the words that define our nation today.

3. indecision v. resentment
    Posted by: "GZarwell" gzarwell@ccconline.net g_zarwell
    Date: Sat May 12, 2007 4:30 am ((PDT))

et al.:
Seems our Congress is upset that their indecision over funding our troops has created strong resentment of their coupling it with Iraqi plans for a two-month break after four years of trials and tribulation to build a democracy.

What the heck?  Maybe our Congress should forego their breaks and actually work more than 7.6 weeks a year to support our taxpayers with real services.  Perhaps, their loyalty to lobbyists is getting in the way of decisions on how to prudently create a government that provides opportunity for its citizen-taxpayers instead of defeat and disenchantment over fiscal abuse and fraud by elected representatives who sell hard for rhetorical ideas with no justification except "pork" in any form.

Why is it that every time we reward our military for their service with a 3.5 increase in pay and benefits, Congress gives themselves a 4+ pay raise for government employees who take no risks?

    Date: Tue May 8, 2007 9:04 pm ((PDT))

et al.:
"If I knew two weeks ago what I learned last night, I wouldn't have sold out our military strategies", is what we can expect from Hillary and everyone of those Presidential wannabes endorsing that message after Governor Martin O'Malley confirms his role as a puppet to Senator Milkuski one of two remaining seated U.S. Senators of Baltimore's voting fraud consortium.

It was earlier predicted that upon withdrawal our adversaries would follow our troops home.  Instead they appear to want to welcome them home before our Congress can pull them out of combat overseas.  Their plan evidently was to make room for at least one-hundred to occupy quarters at Fort Dix in New Jersey.

This is what you get from lawyers who haven't served in our armed forces.  They don't teach that these days at Harvard, Yale and Princeton.  They are taught how to circumvent, distort, and undermine negotiations in favor of a split of bounty for their endorsement.

It is quite apparant they all got good grades.

What is needed is resolve without insider trading and respect from our adversaries that America is the remaining super power.

More positively demostrated in our Nation's Capitol with our nation's capital wouldn't hurt either.  After all, we pay dearly for that ineptness.

We should really indict them all for fraud and take those recaptured salaries to split among our active and retired military.  Each might get a couple of hundred dollars from those millions for one term  Senators and for three term Congressmen.

Heck no one does one term in our Senate except John Edwards who thinks a majority of people really want more of our bases attacked here at home, and that healthcare claims are fair game for class actions. 

Let's not even include those $1,000 per month healthcare HMO's fees that taxpayers pay for; and are offered access to, if we pay again for our families - Kennedy and Kerry plan for Sainthood.

Interesting how all those Democrats honored each other for running without a harsh word, and how all those Republicans praised President Reagan instead of presenting any vision for our nation's future or positioning on a global stage.

Perhaps that Democrat platform of cut and run scared them witless and unintelligible.  Sad, as it seems, we are probably looking at a campaign like in 1976 when our choice was between an incumbent President who was chosen by the impeached President and a peanut farmer who stared out a oval window waiting for Iran to release their hostages, our's and our allies civilian personnel stationed there.

At least we don't have to wait for them to release hostages, they're ready to take them here at home unless we close the doors and seal the leaks from our honorable Congress who is willing to sell us out with more enthusiasm, but lacking veracity without virtuosity or consensus.

Note how each debater came up with almost the exact wording of surrender to a timetable if a unified government could take on that responsibility.
 
 NEWs Flash!  News Flash! That was the plan as written during its development under the Reagan administration in 1983 - no wonder all those Republicans praised him for his Presidential foresight and ability using communication skills.  No President before him or after has been able to perform and act Presidential like he did just minutes before Iran released those hostages.

Yes, a Contra intrigue had its effect as does every second term, but a Republican followed him and that will certainly happen again.
 
Two issues that are irrelevant include: (1) Abortion rights - most for it are glad their moms weren't, and, (2) a war endorsed, funded and revisited with funding by Congress several times until they can use it as a devisive commentary that has no relativity to ... Enstein "physics" not reality.

Our next President will have been and know how to spell and pronounce "Entrepreneur">  you just don't know one who can do it, yet!

Art Downs brings up a good analysis of what our Eastern Shore representative means to Maryland.  It follows Scott Hollenbeck's analysis as well.
 
We have to remember Wayne Gilchrest was elected by Eastern Shore voters.  That district was ignored for years because its votes didn't impact upon statewide offices.  Yet, Wayne lost his first race to an incumbent Democrat Roy Dyson, who in his next race accused Wayne of spending campaign money for personal use when staying at in couple of hotel rooms campaigning in his district.  That false accusation cost Roy his seat in Congress.
 
Republicans in Annapolis never thought Wayne could win. 
 
There where six wealthy professionals seeking that office who each spent more than $600,000 dollars to beat each other up while ignoring Wayne who met and greeted with open hand his constituents who wanted no one from Maryland's mainland representing their interests.
 
And, nobody has been able to break that alliance or loyalty to a hard working school teacher / house painter since.
 
A good thing is that Wayne is not a lawyer, doctor or financial planner commonly categorized as percentage professions (pro's 'cause they take a percentage of private sector earnings without creating value).  Wayne's legacy is what "lawmakers" fear the most.  Creation of a conduit to block those who legislate against individual wealth and happiness in favor of "elitism" rule - last step in bringing down a Democracy.
 
Personally, I want more representatives like Wayne.  He has no agenda other than that of Eastern Shore watermen and life long residents who kept their territory pristine for many years even after an invasion of the west over that first Bay Bridge span before Mayor, Governor, Comptroller Donald Schaefer termed it Maryland's "Outhouse".  If they keep the green house "gasses" in Baltimore and a few in Annapolis, then we can declare the stench comes from upwind not downwind, thus, our Eastern shore can remain environmentally safe.
 
If this analysis seems graphic, so beit.
 
If Annapolis Republicans - State committee - backs Wayne it is because he was elected and none of there's were at great expense to those candidates.
 
Congress has no expertise.  Listening to each of those Dems stake claim to 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue told more truth than not.  Each thinks they know, but have no clue and those who claim experience never exercised those lessons learned.  
 
Hillary and her hubby ignored what Hillary, now since she has seen resolve from The White House, espouses she would retaliate immediately while relying on her hubby for advise.  She also claimed that if she knew then what she knows now, she wouldn't have voted "for".
 
Hindsight is great!  Have you all received that circulating, photo email about Cosmetic transformation? 
 
Her hubby used hindsight a majority of time he spent in the Oval office.  Look, 9-11 would never have happened if he, Billy Bob from Arkansas had retaliated in '93, '96' ' and '99.  It must have been a bad Cuban cigar that distracted him from American resolve.  Not only that, preteen and teen sex increased after media asked our President  if he ever had sex with that woman. Our kids learned what was not sex - it was stated by The President of The United States, and Commander in Chief  resulting in a wave of sexual harassment charges within our military, and in many school districts across this nation.
 
Talk about leadership.
 
Obama can answer a first question with third party coaching, but cannot address a follow up.  He's like just about every other one standing like buffoons complimenting each other as "classy clowns" rather than "classic clowns" - not one proved they could juggle issues and create personal wealth for us 'cause they just don't know under which walnut shell is a pea.
 
Listen carefully this week to our "class" of Republicans wannabes.  There will not be much difference.  It seems last years election of least number of votes (percentage of qualified registered voters) cast since electing George Washingon's second Congress.  Washington was a Federalist followed by Democratic-Republicans and four Whigs before Lincoln won as our First Republican President..
 
Lincoln born in Kentucky was a Senator from Illinois who went off to Ripon Wisconsin to form a True Republican party separate from Dems and Whigs.
 
Since then, Republicans have had successor Republicans nine times:
Grant > Hayes > Garfield > Arthur
McKinley > Roosevelt (Teddy) > Taft
Wilson > Coolidge > Hoover
Nixon > Ford
Reagan > Bush (41)
Bush (3) > ???????
 
Only Democrat follow up was Kennedy > Johnson ( not by choice)
 
Our current candidates -  We have a role model for heroism who lost 3,500 people in an attack that came 10 years after a test on the same buildings by the same group,and who also incarcerated a successful investor.  We have a former POW who says he can now lead at 76 after losing nomination in 2000.  There is another mayor who built a fence. And, a Governor who once was appointed to head a professional entity of percentage professionals.
 
Not one candidate has attempted to create jobs under our government regulations restricting entrepreneurs from doing just that.  And, if an Entrepreneur is successful, Congress changes those laws to attack private sector wealth under threat of indictment for following Congress' lead.  They do it every session as they create  income streams for personal wealth delivered as "brown paper bag lunches near a dumpster' between Constitutional and Pennsylvania Avenues west of 1st Street N.E across from our Supreme Court.
 
In the next few months you may hear of another type of campaign that will meet or exceed FEC regulations, but not media's projected prohibitive costs.  For this to happen;
 
   (1) every state's election mechanism has to be challenged for integrity providing recount with documented archiving at a national non-political depository, but not a Federally regulated entity or media accessible facility. 
 
   (2) Every voter has to get excited by their power to select individuals from their communities with staff from their communities to represent their communities. 
 
   (3) Qualified, citizen, English speaking registered voters must be proactive; for passivity will give us more restriction, more regulations, more violence, and more concentration on death.
 
   (4) 2009's inauguration must be a renewal of our Constitutional rights without lawyer-speak interpretations of relativity -  a friend reminded me today that Einstein stated factually that "relativity only applied to physics", not legislated laws. Relativity also has roots to media were fiscal relativity has no relationship to action < reaction either.
 
   (5) Next Tuesday, we need to declare MAy DAy, may day - it is, after all, the last "May Day" before primaries.  It will not indicate our field of candidates by any means.  It will merely give you a chance to reject those who do not have your wealth and happiness at heart or in mind.
 
As always, in candidate debates, you will hear rhetoric about non-issues effecting no one; but affecting media headlines giving talk show Wizards many quotes to be used out of context for dark revelations of relativity -  water and other things flow down hill (Newton).

et al.:

Most important defining piece of legislation for Democrats doesn't really have its perpetrator's attention according to this morning's newscasts.
 
Pelosi, a housewife living off her father's reputation as a Maryland Governor, was elected in California by less than 200,000 voters [it is debated that they were even counted] wont' even go on record in her quest for legislative political theatrics.
 
She can't handle truth or heat of discussions for one important reason - she is all about emotion and self-importance in an ineffective government.  Besides, if money goes to support our troops, how can her party representatives use that money as seed for campaign contributions to pay media's $1.6 Billion dollars projection of negative advertising about Americans eager to act like dark clowns for 12-20 months.
 
Harry Reid on the other hand cites a 9 percent of 100 people polled, approval rating, for VP Chaney.  Yet, Harry is letting a non believer, Pelosi, drag our government through a disgraceful denial of American resolve. 
 
Pelosi doesn't believe her own rhetoric for fear she might be reported in media accounts that she has no clue about national security or that resolve of those 99. 01 percent of 300 million not polled by democratic pollsters reporting 35 percent more democrats than Republicans, but only from a selected list of 1000 in major cities where media ask questions with no relevance to reality - margin of error plus or minus three to five percent.
 
Two most important questions for Americans - (1) How many would rather live happily in America? (2) How many want government to limit their freedom from cradle to grave?
 
Answers need to consider responsible common sense instead of dependent common good that which is limited to leftovers.
 
Ask not why Pelosi doesn't want to be a on record, but why she misleads our adversaries?  How lame?
 
During Clintons'es eight years in the White House, now acclaimed as an internationally heroic period in American history was in fact a global joke.  They were not taken seriously off-shore.  Any miss-speak around the world was termed a "Clinton".  It was not desired by our allies to include them in their global adventures unless it would wind up in a Rose Garden signing.   Only one was, with Arafat!
 
He did not have.... with that woman.
 
If Pelosi is sincere in her approach to ruining American resolve she will not get help or solace from her party's 2008 candidates.  They all have their own naive way of distancing themselves from hard issues.  "Boston Legal" made it quite clear in last night's episode - that those candidates espousing nonsense are not acceptable.  Trouble is there are no legitimate wannabe's declaring themselves competent with experience. 
 
Oh, there is one coming, though.
 
Our government with all its verbose promises cannot accomplish what a few of America's wealthiest individuals can accomplish globally to combat diseases, education reform, and cost effective infrastructures.
 
Don't get me wrong, government used to have a purpose.
 
All who accomplish are private business entrepreneurs or prominent celebrities using their wealth to privately fund worth-while endeavors in medical research, humanitarian development, or educational prowess.  They are using their wealth from performance bonuses to reach out on behalf of American's who bought products or supported private economic development even as it is discouraged by government regulation.
 
Kennedy had it part right in 1968 when he said, " ask not what government can do for you, but what you can do for government".   He should have encouraged Americans to create for Americans what government cannot do, that is to support freedom, independence, and financial growth for everyone - in one word "Happiness"; not dependence, lack of personal resolve, diminished self-esteem, irresponsibility over others - in one word "discouragement".
 
Ask, not for government money.  Ask, what you can better do with your earnings to create happiness?
 
Final note: in a personal poll I conducted, 100 percent supported VP Chaney over either Reid or Pelosi.
There was no margin of error. 
 
Thus, no phishing!

More laws cannot replace commons sense.  No laws are common sense.  Common sense can replace common good more effectively and less costly.  Common good doesn't exist.  Someone has to suggest what is good along with determining that which is common.  No politician in Congress has enough experience in common to make that judgment, but they sure know their good life espousing how much we who generate income need to contribute to support their not so common good.

Remember Andrew Wyith's American Gothic?  Well, how that's changed.
 
From pitch fork, Victorian home and wife we transition to Harry Reid and Nancy Pelosi  with a white "surrender" flag.
 
It disturbs me that having those two in the same frame looks very similar to Bin Ladin and his deputy on David Letterman. 
 
It appears that the latter is less threatening than the former.  Reid and Pelosi travel in defiance building alliances against American policy outside of their scope calling it a victory over The White House.  Immediately, Iraq's government splits on ideology over democracy from their new empowerment from our Congress.
 
Headlines in all media since their return home tells tales of homicide, murder, shootings, and attacks against our soldiers.  Do you think, "surrender" replaces our American resolve for success with defeat and despair?
 
Pelosi was elected by less than 200,000 voters if they were counted in her district.  Reid probably had less than double that elect him.  Their charter as members of our Congress is to protect and defend our Constitution and get this: They shall in all cases, except treason, felony and breach of the peace, be privileged from arrest during their attendance at the session of their respective houses, and in going to and returning from the same; and for any speech or debate in either house, they shall not be questioned in any other place."
 
Folks, everyone in Congress has violated their oath and their charter through face-time on and in our media.  Nothing they discuss within their sessions is news until it is endorsed by The President.
 
Reid and Pelosi are out of their leagues as are every member of Congress campaigning for a nomination in 2008.  In recent weeks, those same members have breached the peace and encouraged our adversaries to become more aggressive toward our military as our media educates those adversaries to our vulnerabilities. 
 
If Congress hasn't noticed, a single disturbed student took lives of 33 others and wounded 29 in a 30 minute rampage.  Laws prevented anyone from identifying that individual as a threat to preserve his right to privacy.  What about ours?
 
Reid and Pelosi road shows is one that should never have taken place.  What happened at Virginia Tech is what we don't want repeated across our nation.  There just is not enough emotion to withstand those insurgencies being reported in our media night and day for days and weeks at a time.  Copycats may not just be bored adolescents, but rather teenagers seeking thrills from horrific gaming and music encouragement. 
 
Take a look at those nations under siege.  Do you want that here?  I, for one, don't; butt, lawyers do.  Think of all those legal fees and investigations to find out every last motivation while each media report details "how to do it to naive Americans.
 
According to our Constitution; the walls and halls of Congress is their realm, and everything spoken or voted upon stays there - each and everyone of them who discusses our nation's business before signature of the Executive branch has violated their trust of "We The People".  So beit!
 
Oh, they're supposed to receive compensation for their services.  When did that change?  Guess we must demand repayment of all that money over the last several decades since WW II ended. 
 
Maybe, we can afford healthcare. 
 
They're also limited to one paycheck if appointed to a cabinet or department of the Executive branch.  Perhaps as we are limited in Social Security entitlements to reducing our income if we actually remain productive, then Congress should also live by their own rules and return any monies unearned outside of their required one-session per year.
 
This could keep Alberto Gonzales and his department busy feeding cases to our Supreme Court as Congress no longer demonstrates it has any resolve to punish its members for disorderly behavior - see violations above. The Constitution of The United States, Article 1, section 5.

et al.:

Let's indict NBC news for not disclosing details of that shooter's plans to kill wealthy students.  They were sent his plans before he returned to campus to complete his personnel vendetta.
 
You say,  you can't do that.  They received that package two-days later through FedEx.  So much for 10:30 delivery.  Second rampage was at 10:45.
 
That's the point.
 
News media and pundants want to indict school administrators for this student's terrorist actions after he shot two victims in his own dorm.  While they were investigating that incident, shooter left to mail a package. 
 
He was not on campus as they ascertained.
 
Administration actions were not unlike Mayor Rudy Giuliani in New York on 9-11.  One plane hit, word was everybody should stay in place.  Second plane hits, everyone in panic, but those not contained in those buildings should go on with life as normal.
 
He's a hero for that.
 
Virginia Tech President alerted immediately after second rampage began.  He's at fault.
 
Every police organization in or near Blacksburg came to assist. Forty some emergency vehicles responded within minutes.
 
Back seat and Monday morning quarterbacking tries to make those who had to react to this unannounced event guilty.  They are being criticized by those who encourage and honor terrorism through extended coverage.
 
As I was writing this, an ABC news forensic psychiatrist hit the nail on the head. 
 
This should not go beyond a news report on incident day.  It hypes others who want that recognition to "copycat", a media term explicitly demonstrating and instructing people how to accomplish historic recognition.
 
If Giuliani was a hero losing 3,500 New York residents and tourists, then VT President is exceptional for containing that incident after it was initiated in Norris Hall.
 
Actually, Hui ended it when he put his gun to his head -  too late for his targets.
 
Four students who were interviewed stated if they had their registered and certified permits to carry their guns.  That shooter would have been down before he could get more than one clip of  eight shots fired - had they been allowed to carry them.
 
Of course gun control advocates were upset with that insight.  Without their guns, they were locked up in classrooms, and 33 students were killed, 29 wounded.
 
Real heroes take action to analyze a situation and resolve it with little or no fanfare.  Media in their excitement to recreate every little detail destroy responsible considerations by always trying to blame those who have immediate decisions thrust at them with absolutely no information; four hours later, reflect upon "what could've been done". 
 
And, in several media studies during our infamous '70's, they didn't prevent on air shootings in their studios which of course were reported and forgotten about within hours.
 
From my experience, during both Camille and Andrea, as media officer for the Army and National Guard, restrict media into critical areas until after we could assess damage and security.  It resulted in no second guessing or calls for dramatic changes that would probably not be repeated in those areas againg for 100 years.
 
It was really stupid of our media comparing Bowie State's system on a small campus that had recent threats from a sniper in 2002 to a 2,600 acre campus in quiet Blacksburg where nothing like this has happened since the civil war.
 
Administrators did everything they could before Hui sent that package to NBC news.  It's just too bad, Hui didn't wait until they ran it on the noon-day news, so officials could've responded.
 
Just as I finished this, ABC 7 reported two people shot in Alexandria, VA.  There was no call to close down Northern Virginia -  why?  What's different?
 
Not to just indict here, but we in America spend more time dying than we do living.  Teenagers are reckless with their lives proving every weekend as one after another loses control  and hits a tree.  Adults countdown to death rather than celebrate and live life to their fullest.
 
CD's DVD's celebrate murder with their horrific gaming.  Kids spend more time practicing terrorism then doing their student required studies.  Addicted by this intense decision making within seconds to kill as many people as they can gets boring after a while, so, they take outside to real situations with real unpredictable humans.  Quite a scenario for parents to control.
 
At what age does this start?  Preteen, as young a 8-9 year olds while mom and dad are busy socializing or careering. 

Don't blame University administrators, it starts at home from gaming and rapping right on MTV and other free spirited artists expressing their obsession with society's rules.
 
Some food for thought.  Celebrate living!  More than 2 hours of news this morning were about shootings, past present and litigated.
 
Just a quickie note:  Supreme Court ruling was as expected, but some are upset.  Those are the one's who are probably glad their mothers didn't make that decision, either.  That's my position.  It's not a government issue.

Objective reporting gets lost if reporters get involved in double guessing those with official responsibility to investigate.  Reminds me when a Union strike affects business and reporters interview employees picketing instead of employer's representatives.  Wrong perspective.  If our troops pull out of Iraq and Afghanistan, get used to this.  We have now opened a huge vulnerability window for those using our media for their "intelligence" source.  Like our forefathers in Boston, we cannot call for arms, 'cause most people don't own any, and worse, it they did, probably wouldn't know how to use them or when.  What will you do when Paul (Revere) lights the lanterns?

et al.:
Private sector takes responsibility quicker resulting from true political correctness. 

It was all done without lawyers and politicians.  In fact it gained approval from media.  Perhaps, freedom of speech will return to freedom of speech where "First Amendment" will reflect majority acceptance instead of those who fail to be responsible.

I watched and listened to those who relished in their attacks on Don Imus, a "jerk jock", I never listened to, but was aware of his lude and inappropriate broadcast language.  However, under FCC rules he was acceptable to Government.

Does this give you a clue where we're going?  It gets better from here.

However, now that major media networks disowned his behavior and gave him the boot after years of profits selling sleaze.  Those who celebrated, those sponsor pull outs, and those cancelled time allotments will be watched to see if they can meet their own judgments.  After all it was pop culture that created that behavior by accepting it as "Freedom of Speech".

Perhaps, those CD's your kids buy will go the way of other media our "Sphincter Police", as dubbed by Kit in "Pretty Woman", have targeted.  You might even be able to turn on a radio station or television music award show without offensive suggestions of violence vividly described as music during prime family time.

Yes, it took "business" to correct a situation our Congress and regulatory agencies ignored for fear of losing votes from establishing real political correctness.  Not only that.  It took less than four days to resolve and execute a decision eliminating a cultural problem that has festered into three decades.

Now, let's see which lawyers, private or Congressional are going to undo this resolve - probably those in California and Boston.

This one was for the majority of Americans not polled in a group of 1,000 with an error rate of plus or minus three percent.  It also indicated a evolution in media to address a serious problem.

Congrats CBS Less Moonves and MSNBC.  Could they start a new reality.  Let's hope Congress won't reverse it from their three-ring circus act.

Headlines about fund raising totals to sell media's paradigm that unless you pay the piper, you can't get elected. 
 
Aint true, history shows.
 
Projections at media outlets around our nation anticipate big boosts in sales due to early entry candidates. 
 
This is "The Super Bowl" of politics brought to you buy those who won't put their name on a ballot because they would have to stand for something and a pay cut; but instead, they can buy a "circus clown" for the thrill of that ride.
 
Just don't scream too loud after cresting.
 
One of our largest global industries has $44 Trillion available and no one is tapping into it for fear it will replace personal greed while changing outdated paradigms.
 
Aside from that, campaign finance regulations don't require campaign committees or PAC's to gather contributor information for contributions less than $250. 
 
Consider this: through a website, all those who vote for "Idols" and dancers can use their ten or eleven votes to choose a new celebrity through text messaging, dialing, and website polling without identity.
 
Now, take a well heeled sponsor of a candidate with untold billion$ stashed away on some island decides to shape politics according to "gorp", let's say.  That money can be inserted into a campaign without disclosure in small amounts up to $249 leaving a virtual trail undetected. 
 
To raise $29 million it would only take one-hundred sixteen thousand four-hundred sixty-five web transactions at $100.  Double contribution levels to $200 and you only need fifty-eight thousand transactions
 
To pull this off, you need a certain percentage of disclosed contributors.  Let's say, for illustration, that twenty thousand contributors submit maximum contributions of $2,300 totaling $46 million.   With that scenario you over load.
 
On the other hand, if 240 million contributors each gave $200 you would collect forty-eight billion dollars more than enough to buy Congress.  None of it need be reported until spent.  Congress is used to that.  Just think about that possibility.
 
Doesn't that make our media wet their...
 
Supporting advertising (buying support) is a terrible way to build a government of "We The People".  It takes resolve, discipline, conscious, credibility, accomplishment, legitimacy, and responsibility from experience.  It wouldn't hurt to be honorable and trustworthy either.
 
In that campaign, "We The People" benefit through our personal connection and can get the job done by telling others of a candidate worthy of our vote - most important element in winning elections when they're counted.
 
To raise, $350 million you need a lottery ticket or fourteen million contributions of $25.  Or, seven-million, contributions at $50.  This supports one industry that creates no value or direct return.
 
Raising money to be viable is as ridiculous as using prescriptions drugs to cure illness when they can only camouflage symptoms.  There are technologies being pursued to capture natural healing processes and enhance immune systems to make them functional.
 
Back on point! 
 
Remember Congressman Wayne Gilchrest's first run.  He lost.  Then six professionals ran against him spending around a half million dollars each.  Wayne won.  Why?  He got the most votes in a district still counting legimately.

1. "La La land"
    Posted by: "GZarwell" gzarwell@ccconline.net g_zarwell
    Date: Thu Apr 5, 2007 8:53 am ((PDT))
et al.:
Separation of power is what our esteemed Senator Patrick Leahey proclaims is a pillar of our Democracy.  Yet, that separation is circumvented by our dishonorable Speaker of the House who violates every legal precedent regarding constitutional duties.
 
As a representative from a California district , she represents 500,000 Californians who, maybe, half of them voted for her.  Our House of Representatives does not have direct oversight of our State Department nor does it establish policy.  Their role is to assure our policies are agreeable to American citizens and are funded adequately.
 
Here's the situation:  Pelosi essentially commandeered one of "We The People's" aircraft under objection of both our State Department and in defiance of our Defense Department. 
 
Had I done that my return flight would go to Gitmo.  Get the idea.
 
It is "We The People" who will pay for her junket accompanied by 50-100 members of Congress and media so she could undermine American strategy in an International chess game of being played by Kings and Presidents not encountered  since WW I.
 
If she and those traveling went there for anything other than a vacation of which each should reimburse our Defense Department for actual operating costs out of monies not received from taxpayer contributions or there office expense accounts, they are misusing taxpayer monies for personal gain instead of "We The People's" business.
 
Her defiance and aggressiveness in undermining is in direct conflict with Democratic separation of powers.  It sets for us a vulnerable precedent around our global community.
 
It's bad enough we have candidates campaigning on our time and with our money instead of working to support our government's goals and objectives. 
 
We pay Senators and Representatives for full time work to serve their constituents and under Hatch act that means they are ineligible to run for public office while in an elected or appointed position of our Federal Government.
 
See, that reinforces my position that no lawyers should seek or hold government office in other that in our Supreme Court or accept a position in Executive Branch Department of Justice.  Doing otherwise is a conflict of interest beyond any conflict in our private sector. 
 
Several years ago I was advised by Professors in leading Law Schools that with my knowledge of Constitutional law and my expansive experience in all levels of our judicial system from local District Courts up through Circuit Court, Courts of Special Appeals, Courts of Appeals, Federal District Courts, Federal Claims Courts, plus our U.S. Supreme Court, that it would be a waste of time to get a JD for two very important reasons:  (1) they don't teach law in school; and (2) probably less than 2 percent ever get to "practice" beyond filing papers leading to trial appearances.  They don't teach International law that I must address in 130 countries, just to do business.
 
It is a known fact that they teach circumvention and percentage professional collections.
 
There are good attorneys to file papers for incorporation, patents and copyrights.  Some draft contracts for business.  In more recent years, there are more collecting third party debts to pay office expenses through intimidation and harassment.  Easiest way for them to make money is through bogus Class actions suits and personal injury suits because they get paid by their target victims, your employers and our insurance companies who seem to settle 'cause it's cheaper than litigation.
 
Ever read a contract through word for word, punctuation and grammar with complete understanding of how it denies you the signer of certain rights and how you will not get satisfaction for services or purchases, but will be taken to its identified court in a certain jurisdiction.  You can count on that last small print.
 
It's all about practicing circumvention.  As noted earlier this week, I've executed my rights successfully in trail situations and received "favorable" judgments 15 out of 16 times - 16 is still pending a judge's resolve to do the right thing above and beyond collusion, intimidation, and obstruction of justice in a case that was administratively in default on November 21, 1997 and dismissed based upon a fraud on the court where defendant was changed to another not connected to claimed action so that Judges could dismiss under a provision that a case was not served properly. 
 
It was as filed, but not as modified to avoid embarrassment to The State of Maryland.
 
There is no honor in law; yet, they hold us accountable, subsequently as hostages to their implied expertise and dream from their Congressional seats that are getting tighter every time they sit in them new ways to get our hard earned money.
 
Perhaps, Air Force, whatever number it is for Pelosi, should be redirected straight  to Guantanamo Bay until we can release an attorney who can represent those who are following actions of many considered terrorists previously by violating those rules confirmed by Congress for separation of power and defiance of Home Land Security policy.
 
With those 50 members detained for unauthorized representation, perhaps remaining 385 others in Congress will pass the Defense emergency bill to allow us to move our pawns to protect our bishops and Knights on behalf of our Kings and Queens.  This knowing full well that another 8 will not vote for conflicts in their resolve and campaign schedules - can't be culpable in a questionable issue or "rule" against common sense at this early stage in "La La land".
 
Global media this week gave kudos and approval to both Syria's King and Iran's President.   Tells you what they thought of a rouge Speaker of the House always introduced as traveling without approval or authority of our Executive Branch - one of three with separation of power, according to Leahey, a prosecutor in the People's House, but not Justice.

1. "lawyer speak"
    Posted by: "GZarwell" gzarwell@ccconline.net g_zarwell
    Date: Fri Mar 30, 2007 8:58 am ((PDT))
 
et al.:
Sampson vs. Gonzales has no referee or credible judges.  It's all "lawyer speak" to undermine our system.
 
When Congress becomes jury with committee interrogations, it sends a terrible signal globally that Democracy is nothing more than Lawyer speak inquisitions for power and control.   This is a prime example of how our election system -  phony vote counts - have taken "We The People" out of our equation.
 
Name one pronounced candidate running for 2008 nomination that isn't a lawyer.
 
Perhaps we should change our organizational structure from three branches to four: 
(1) Executive - someone who has no tight connections with Congress that create favoritism;
 
(2) Justice which includes judges and prosecutors and maybe to balance, a few defense attorneys but no class action solicitors;
 
(3) Congress -representatives with entrepreneurial experience to concurrently serve their employees and shareholders, stakeholders and constituents when in session to represent "We The People" from our districts with staff from their districts, devoid of lawyers (opposite of how it done today). That way, proposed laws can be reviewed by justice as a separation -  returned to Congress for review before going to The President for concurrence or disapproval at affected Departments before submission to  Executive; and
 
(4) Inquisition - self-important, Governor appointed representatives (fee based lawyers at State expense) who can meet  after reporting their findings to media so as to appear as concerned leaders on government official behavior or private sector business compliance to applicable law (there's that word again) to distort through bogus coverage, misperceptions, and harassment to harness all that wanton power needed to satisfy and limit federal support to our United, independent states running on Federal dollars.
 
We need a Federal election not controlled by State Administrators to elect our Executive Branch and let those sovereign States elect their Congressional members and pay for them.  That way lobbyists monies will directly go to State coffers while containing self-empowered, corruption of attorneys who seem to go from prominence to jump suits faster than and with less publicity than Entrepreneurs who make more money creating jobs for "We The People".
 
What brings up this discussion is global headlines declaring those Democrats as clowns with no ideas trying to get their targets to build their cases, not as prosecutors, but more likened to debt collectors through intimidation and phony charges to scare or "misspeak" (synonymous with "Lawyer Speak") through innuendo; all for face-time or as we likened it to "political theatrics".
 
Under USC Fair Debt Collection Act, Title VIII and USC Title 15 Chapter V, Debt collectors can only phone to verify an address and they send a letter explaining they are attempting to collect a debt they bought, but unless you don't admit to that debt in writing within 30 days or in court after hundreds of illegal phone calls and threatening monthly statements about a debt or fabrication of a debt that has been charged off (debtor was exonerated).  There is no debt in existence except in that lawyer's mind who bought that 'cause his practice isn't thriving.*
 
It is not my desire to take sides in all issues, but to bring forth thought provoking considerations and some sense of respect to our Democracy.  

Since 9-11 Giuliani has ridden a tide of heroism that was and now again challenged as is his decision to indict Milken for making money.  His policies were status quos after 1993 with no awakening - unqualified for global leadership.  

Hillary had an idea to socialize American, and nobody wanted it, so she wants a second chance to sell it.  She said, "I will lean on my (former President) husband", who didn't even know what Leadership was and lets 8 years of terrorist plots get organized. 

 
It was reported today that Obama is a big success; at what?  Some say he isn't black enough, other's question if publisher of a "Harvard Law Review" magazine is enough credentials. 

McCain has weakened his positions and was once rejected before. 

 
A few Governors sought and redeployed 'cause they can't raise money to support our "Super Bowl" pre-shows for two years. And, all of them are lawyers most coming from Congressional experience where legitimate Congressmen like Don Nickels (OK), Alan Simpson (WY), Bill Proxmier (WI), and many others due to lack of opportunity for accomplishment and in most cases phony alliances with back stabbing career destruction have left - some linger like homelessness.
 
Now, a media report pans Gonzales in headlines trying to distance everyone from his support, only to confirm in final paragraphs rarely read, that Gonzales deputy indicated nothing was really done outside of "the Rules", but acted as he should as Attorneys General (a position equivalent to a Cabinet Secretary).  

If Gonzales is forced through lawyer speak and egotism of ABA certified members of his club, then "We The People" have to reassess our priorities.

 
Then why, would we want the Clinton's to repeat their political agenda by firing 123 Reagan and both Bush's appointees at Justice.  Get that in our media before every former prosecutor sitting on that inquisition gets unearned face-time matching their unearned income.
 
Definition -  "Lawyer speak":  (n) A language of vagaries used to circumvent knowledge of common sense with regard to acting or believing in "right and wrong" behavior patterns that can be substantiated by highly paid "experts" for financial gain to ABA members; (v) threading unrelated facts to reach a preconceived perception when taken out of context, (vt) also a tactic used by media for Pulitzers (equivalent to media Emmys and Oscars) to increase self importance.
 
There is neither room in "The People's House" (Clinton term for The Nation's Capitol) for lawyers nor in The White House for another member of that fraternity that never returned a profit to those producing this country's wealth, but certainly took a percentage of it - big time.
 
By the way, from 1989- 2000, did your community raise your kids or did you?  Who raised your neighbors kids?  Was it grandma? Social Services? or, day care?  In most Eastern European nations, Grandma does prior to pre-school and through formative years.  In Western civilization, I can say mostly moms and stay at home dads, with many of them home schooling.  

I guess it really doesn't require a community - Hillary!

 
It takes love, dedication, integrity, and hopefully not a lot of PBJ and electronic gadgets.

IMPORTANT - It was Maryland's Senator Milkuski, who in 2004, delayed restorations at Walter Reed by holding up a Congressional bill authorizing renovations through Defense Department contracting in exchange for private residential development negotiations to benefit Maryland Democrats by bringing more Federal dollars into her pockets through an expanded federal government employment liability in Bethesda instead of leaving it in DC - a U.S. Territory; not as reported by media as a Defense Department oversight.

3. Or; is it?
    Posted by: "GZarwell" gzarwell@ccconline.net g_zarwell
    Date: Tue Mar 27, 2007 7:37 pm ((PDT))

et al.:

Senate leadership isn't what it appears to be.  Or; is it?
 
I noted with some interest, that Chuck Haegle took a strong stand to defend Democratic rhetoric after it was clear their proposed timetable had no chance of overcoming a veto.  That's leadership.  Plus, his colleagues identified non-issues to use as horse puckies to discredit any opposing politician - oh heck! - specifically a Republican member of Congress who might declare a candidacy. 
 
Observation -- there is no defining difference between any of our 16 declared or undecided candidates, according to our network and off color media - cable.
 
Media will report that The President vetoed all that money "earmarked" for "common good" instead of reporting that common sense dictates protecting our national security with strategies unknowing to our potential adversaries. 
 
I don't think our kids would understand hiding under a desk or even where a bomb shelter exists or what it is.  There is a reason why key government agencies are moving 50+ miles upwind of Washington.
 
Television series "Jericho" maybe gave some a clue.
 
Knowing that a bill has so much pork that it won't get signed makes for bold Senators and Congressmen exude leadership qualities - all lawyers who cannot support our Constitution because it actually encourages separation of power (risky).  A concept they cannot accept or practice.  They hold down most seats from "blowin da winn".  Jodie Foster, in "Nell".
 
All three branches collectively have more lawyers then our global allies and enemies combined in over 190 nations.  At least we know where ours are.  In DC, a Territory not under control of any of these United States.
 
We need a branch of government of "We The People" with representatives from our districts, paid for by our district residents, representing their district's needs, as opposed to a group of clowns in a three ring circus pretending to care while being paid to circumvent common sense (defined in Webster as:practical judgment) -- common good isn't even defined, yet considered by many as primary rule of spending). 
 
Actually, we need governors who care to provide for his/her state's needs through production of a State Gross Product (goods sold outside of home bringing value back home) so they can provide government employees with high cost healthcare benefits that producers can access for a fee - Clinton's concept of parity.
 
I've suggested this before based upon 1995-96 retail history -  we need more "snow days" year 'round for government workers.  There are two excellent reasons as opposed to rationales for this suggestion; (1) An opportunity to return government money through retail purchases back to employers who create products; and, (2) only essential personnel show up - those who actually must turn on the lights, shovel the sidewalks, and clean the offices while earning their wages to some day take advantage of a snow day as well.  Ok, ok, (3) they also keep both bureaucrats company in case a phone rings.
 
How about a Senator packing a gun and handing it off to his aide?  All this while both houses try to make packing a gun illegal.  So, defiance starts with lawyers / fiction writers.
 
I received this next quote today:
                                                    Ten Commandments
                 "The real reason that we can't have the Ten Commandments in a Courthouse 
                 is that you cannot post 'Thou Shalt Not Steal', 'Thou Shalt Not Commit
                 Adultery' and 'Thou Shall Not Lie' in a building full of lawyers,
                 judges and politicians.  It creates a hostile work environment."
Did you hear this one:                               Our Constitution
               "They (being our Congress) keep talking about drafting a Constitution for Iraq.
               Why don't we just give them ours? It was written by a lot of really smart guys,
               and it's worked for over 200 years.  But, we're not using it anymore."  This had to
               come from a Middle school Junior Achiever or a four-year old who watches 
               way too much television.  They speak truth whether you like it or not!
 
As far as I remember, no one wants hand-me-downs.  Is that why so many in Congress are looking to a European draft - a lot of wind creating dependent subjects for elite rule.
 
This may seem crude, but is there a libertarian politician seeking office who has someone battling cancer?  It was a good Hollywood story when Andy Shepard (D) from Wisconsin won a non-character election because his wife died of cancer in , you guessed it, 'The American President' with Michael Douglas and Annette Benning.
 
Look many of us survived it and were cured without fanfare.  That's today's norm.  It's not a story anymore.  Cancer was probably created by man through toxins destroying our immune systems.  Just don't eat what you cannot pronounce.
 
Don't forget to tell our FEC to reserve your National Absentee ballot for 2008's Presidential election.  All state-wide elections can fend for themselves, and for that matter those winners can be paid by their states.  Maybe if the voters see directly where their money is going, they'll think twice about accepting fraudulent vote counts.
 
This is for Al Gore,  President and Vice President are elected by a Constitutional Electoral college to prevent four major cities from determining a winner.  That's why you lost.  Supreme Court ruled that our Constitutional Electoral College was in fact Constitutional, not phony ballots from Chicago.  That worked once, but not in 2000.
 
To make it easy we should allow one vote from each county and two from each city over 1 million registered voters meeting citizenship requirements and felony disqualification based upon majority popular vote.  You still would've lost.

2. So, be it!
    Posted by: "GZarwell" gzarwell@ccconline.net g_zarwell
    Date: Mon Mar 26, 2007 10:40 am ((PDT))

et al.:
Friends tell me that I'm too political.
 
Yet, I spent more time in private sector jobs and military plus as a qualified commercial pilot where my income from those flights and equipment investments kept me solvent for many years.
 
Politics was only a hobby to find out how it works or doesn't work.  Latter being more true than former.
 
Well, this may shock a few.  Politics is rhetoric leading no where in America.  And, see, where getting there fast.
 
I've been a leader on three continents in four careers with legal non-practice as an additional hobby.  I've never practiced law, just executed it in courtroom appearances.
 
Through all this I've learned some about Constitutional law with gratitude to Jane Brooks for reawakening me to that aspect of government.
 
During this past week, I've heard discussions about separation of State from our founding fathers, checks and balances between three unique branches of government and universal healthcare.  Some of this matters and some, does not.
 
Last night Patrick Leahey adamantly declared war on the White House over Justice Department Secretary Alberto Gonzales and Congress's right to "Rule Over" those other two branches from his seat in "We The People's" Senate /  Congress.  His rationale was that  he used to be a prosecutor some thirty years ago before electronic surveillance, illegal aliens, Internet spam, and cell phones. 
 
Problem in his premise is that he's in the wrong Department!
 
Congress is supposed to represent "We The People" and when our votes count, lawyers will not be making  laws for their counterparts in our justice system to split the cache.   We've had a few lawyers become President which throws our balance out the window.
 
Lawyers should only be allowed to hold elected seats in our branch of Justice.  Let them cut off their limbs there.  There should be no lawyers seating in "We The People's" seats in Congress.  That was and should be reserved for "We The People" who know what we want from our government and what we don't need is them spending our hard earned money on more lawyers and more inane regulations telling us what we cannot build, sell, or invest in.
 
For that matter, we don't need a member of both Congress and the Bar (not the one's Kennedy, Kerry, and Pelosi visit) in the White House, or those Bill Clinton visited in England when he should've been attending to his Rhodes Scholarship.  

All those lawyers have way to much invested in circumventing common sense with misquoted facts taken out of context as precedence to avoid meeting obligations to do "We The People's" business which is protecting our Assets, national security, and quality of life giving us those freedoms to our American Dream as promised "to pursue life, liberty and Happiness".

 
I do acknowledge that we have several performing Congressmen who are from other than five-name law firms.  They don't seem to seek reelection after witnessing how fraud works to disenfranchise taxpayers and corrupt one's ethics, friendships, and American Dream.
 
"We The People" of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice, insure Domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defence, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessing of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America."! 1789.
 
Note, how important a concept our preamble stated in "the pursuit of 'Happiness'".  There is no reference to providing welfare, just as there is no guarantee to a lawyer that we bless them posteriors.
 
My dream has never been to take toxins to destroy one organ after another.  It has not been to be liable to charities of members of Congress (PORK), or for that matter construction of memorials to lawyers in office with no skills except to defend until sentenced for illegally executing their "right" to bilk "We The People".
 
We need an Executive in The White House, a Justice in Justice, and "entrepreneurs" in Congress to create wealth and value of our American dream.  And, the media will follow because it is from diverse advertising they get filthy rich as a residual to "We The People" creating wealth for others through purchase of useful goods and services (no reference is made to percentage professionals).
 
Political ads only sell more of that we don't want.  The harder we don't want it, the more ads are created to sell us - ever leave home before that in-home salesman arrived after a telemarketer scheduled him into your life.  Here's a real true story about that:
 
     A telemarketer scheduled me to visit a farmer in Fredericksburg, Virginia to sell him doors, windows and siding.  I went to his little farm and noted as I drove along his driveway lots of old. ancient rusted implements, a lack of windows in his block house, a leaky roof, and no doors (they had rotted off years ago).  I found him behind an old "sheet" curtain covering a sliding door frame where behind he had a cot, table and hot plate.
 
It was obvious, he had need, desire, but no wherewithal to purchase any of that inventory I was about to "sell" him. 
 
We chatted. 
 
I learned that his young grandchild had a birthday coming up next day.  He had less than five dollars for bus fare to go to a party with his relatives.  It was snowing outside - this was during 1996's multi-mini blizzards.  It was a very eye-opening situation created from government neglect.
 
Acknowledging to him a very Merry Christmas, I gave him $50 for dinner, maybe a cheap motel room, and  something for his grandchild.  It was another overwhelming feeling.
 
Point is:  our Government put him there.  It didn't regulate my contribution, nor did it take a lawyer / lobbyist to take me to a fancy cuisined restaurant to do a good thing.  Not overdone, not intimidating, not controlling.
 
So, be it!
 
Where should Congressmen* go?  Some are on their way<<.  You better believe that.

1. Hillary's reform - status quo!
    Posted by: "GZarwell" gzarwell@ccconline.net g_zarwell
    Date: Mon Mar 26, 2007 6:29 am ((PDT))

et al.:

On my way out, this morning, I overheard on GMA a discussion of Hillary's healthcare reform.
 
She had some good ideas about giving workers, students and all private sector taxpayers access to  same one as Federal employees get.
 
Great idea, except, we already pay for it; and we don't get, 'cause she don't get it.
 
Where her policies fail is reliance on lower wages in private sector jobs must pay first for government employees, and what's left over she now wants us to give to Congress to manage.
 
So, her reform is status quo.

Hillary claimed to be an expert in Healthcare.  She's an attorney.  She wants to simplify healthcare paperwork.  Just give your paycheck to Congress for complete off-line management.  That way you don't have to check your accounts online at your bank.
 
What's harms our healthcare programs is not access to medical treatment as much as it does HMO's and prepaying others before we get ours.  What will work is less regulatory mandates to employers to provide government programs that have little or no benefits to private sector taxpayers.  In most cases, other than prescription drug toxins, preventive strategies, and natural remedies will keep us healthy without lawyers, accountants and Congress running our health.
 
Even FDA and FTC have no interest in protecting or preventing our health.  NBC proved that.  As a note, most government employees in those agencies are government reimbursed employees of those industries benefiting from high cost regulatory controls and lobbyist paybacks to members of Congress and Pharmaceutical manufacturers blocking use of natural, free from nature, remedies used for thousands of years without destroying our immune systems.
 
I certainly wouldn't want residual healthcare as a Clinton benefit.  It didn't work for Vincent or those five Arkansas State Troopers...

1. serious precedent
Posted by: "GZarwell" gzarwell@ccconline.net g_zarwell
Date: Wed Mar 21, 2007 6:01 pm ((PDT))

et al.:
A very serious precedent is under consideration that could ultimately effect every entrepreneur developing jobs for trusted employees.
 
Don't think Congress will stop with breaking down executive privilege in hiring it's staff or consultants to get a variety of opinions before making executive decisions.
 
"We The People" will lose.  We essentially, according to vote counts, hired all members of Congress including our Executive branch.  Yet, "We The People" cannot hold them accountable because those votes were phony to begin with.  It is another attempt by non-practicing attorneys to get a bigger piece of  our "earnings" pie.  
 
Remember, Congress is not part or parcel of our Executive Branch or that Justice Department or any other agency that regulates your life. 
 
Their responsibilities are limited to oversight of expenditures and misuse of funds through introduction of legislation with added "pork" to become bills for us to pay, not personnel or staffing.  This precedent to judge or impede our Executive Branch or it's agencies is not legal under our Constitution and will ultimately effect employers hiring employees through inane regulations forcing gathering "nuts" for those squirrels on the Hill.
 
Each member in Congress has a staff with advisors to which "We The People" as will be guaranteed under this pending precedent, (a term of law establishing policy for defending illegal actions without responsibility by any judge to rule) access to mandatory media covered hiring interviews of Congressional staffers and their advisors for each of us to ratify upon who we want from our state or "Congressional District" to assist our state's representatives in Congress because they effect our livelihood and quality of life. 
 
When was the last time you learned who your Senator or district Congressmen leaned upon to address your affairs, or asked you for support of his choice for advisory information affecting your job, your employer's capability to create wealth for you, or your personal security and safety from terror "accidents" (events caused by unreliable people effecting your property, life, and family members).
 
Aside:  Accident is a term describing unexpected or unintended happenings, as one resulting in injury, loss; i.e.: when a tree falls down on your house, or car because its roots were cut during construction, or some other influence of nature.  However, it is difficult to sue Mother Nature, so accidents are unexpected due to people creating situations where unexpected harm results; i.e.: driving recklessly, and shooting someone while aiming at someone else.  Clearly these latter events are not both accidents; the former is not covered by insurance for which lawyers cannot collect fees.  Only those actions resulting from ignorance of an event while working or impacted upon by other people without intent can be considered accidental for which lawyers can make lots of money.
 
And, it was certainly no accident in last year's election who appeared to claim victory.
 
Observation - it seems a person is always involved in an accident.  Why is that?
 
How does this effect all of us.
 
Well, Self important politicians will begin offering you, well not you, constituents your money for perceived votes, so they can keep their hands in your pockets without ever having to work a day in their life for your good.  It's already happening, now, nine months out. Certain politicians are enacting upon the 9-11 precedent.  News flash, Louisiana's Governor can't take it any longer - she is quitting.
 
I'm not sure about this next concept, but if your elected representative commits your money to a "pork" project outside your district or state, could that righteously be a charitable contribution because it helps another individual - not you.  After all, you "elected" that representative to take care of your money and he did - gave it to someone else with no benefit to you - thus charity.
 
Serious note:  Regarding Walter Reed Army Medical Center:  A Secretary of Army resigned, two Generals removed through resignation because Maryland's Senator Barbara Milkuski asked for a decision for funding those repairs in 2004 be held up for debate in the House while private developers were being stalked to build revenue producing residences in DC that would bring billions of our dollars into Maryland to enhance Bethesda based military properties.  Mind that none of this brings in new money, just excessive burden by creating more government jobs and contracts out of  "We The People" tax contributions.
 
Don't forget, government employees are paid with our money and pay their taxes with our money as well.
 
Out of curiosity has anyone ever heard of a "pork" program returning money to "We The People"? 

When Lee Iacocca refurbished the Statue of Liberty maybe - nah, he asked for contributions from real Americans and got it without Congress' support.  Didn't he rebuild a Corporation on a promise for a Dollar?  He repaid a government guarantee in 18 months with interest as well.  He was a foreign born legal immigrant as most of our grandparents were.  Honest work and personal ethics came from our forefathers who built America.
 
If you don't know Jim Hill's story around the turn of the Century, check it out.  Not 2000, that was turn of the Millennium.
 
Listen carefully these next few days because when realization sets in that there is Executive privilege to hire advisors, that debate will disappear after four or 12 hours of Congressional media face-time without changing anything.  This is just one more stupid non-issue "We The People" will have to pay for.  Not only through our taxes, but through media's constant moaning over their inability to see truth over speculation that those politicians will spend $1.5 billion collectively for those distortions; I meant disillusions.
 
Chuck Schumer should just go to his "Animal House" (term used on ABC News report of a Democrat stronghold) and have another beer or two.  Carl Levin (D) never thanked me in 1973-79 for use of my Southfield, Michigan, office to organize his first run for Senate while I was countering at every television station in our contiguous United States John Kerry's allegations of soldier misconduct back then.

1. "where's the leak?"
    Posted by: "GZarwell" gzarwell@ccconline.net g_zarwell
    Date: Sat Mar 17, 2007 6:35 am ((PDT))

et al.:
Think about this scenario.

Valerie Plame, an attractive, covert agent, highly trained and capable of planning intriguing, undetectable operations to over throw governments and cartels decides that she can have same fame as Monica Lewinsky.

Mind you this follows closely a story called "The Russia House" in intrigue.

CIA officials claimed when asked, she recommended her husband for an assignment to investigate "yellow cake" movements from Africa.  You gotta ask why send a diplomat instead of an agent?

She denies that request and recommendation.

It wasn't a scheduled or documented request from anyone at that time.  Wilson goes, spends some time there, is recalled for an unauthorized venture for which he files a report with media outlets.

State Department either called a reporter at the New York times or vice versa to confirm where that story emanated from; or that reporter called State to confirm why Wilson went. 

Historically, a story disclaiming any movement of that horrific material per Wilson ran and in his zeal probably intimated  or makes it known his wife works for our CIA as an analyst.  As reporters do, they try to check out where she works and calls CIA and WH for some confirmation.  At this point, plot only thickens without scrutiny to validity of operation.

Word spreads through administration channels to determine if it was an act of unauthorized activity or whether it was a legitimate assignment.

As this develops, all of a sudden a covert operative is uncovered through a maze of discovery almost simultaneously preventing connecting any dots (a new game in spy circles since 9-11).

This confusion then disperses information keeping Plame and Wilson immune to investigations into "where's the leak?"

So far in this story, it is only summation of specious facts that reporters take hold of and try confirming by phoning each and every contact they have at State, CIA, and WH. Congress was alerted as well.

Let's stop here for a moment.  Take a breath of air.  Now, continue.

Democrats in Congress begin to throw more dirt on this operation to further cloud any realistic discovery or truth.  They of course as predicted take it to a televised hearing and shout loudly about disclosure of Plame's identity on every television news cast they can find.  This further sells her and Wilson's story; thus, increasing her celebrity.

Had this been a serious breach of identity, it would've been quietly handled to not blow Plame's covert identity for the very reasons she scripted before her prime time appearance yesterday.  Confused Congressional charges over who leaked brought it out.  Were they investigated?  No!

During all of this, Plame's identity, and now, her image is shown on International media as a blown agent -  more value in civil lawsuits - ask any attorney.

It was Wilson who announced his wife was violated through disclosure, but it was never credible through sound bites and factual tracks. 

They seemed to be a very comfortable couple enjoying that fame or celebrity being hustled by media while dismantling our government's resolve and integrity. 

She was trained for that as a covert agent (analyst).

Yesterday, her testimony before Congress was scripted.  Her demeanor was that of a covert operative making political statements, emboldened claims effecting every covert operative as Democrats appeared to buy into every word with lack of emotion.

Immediately after, celebrity of Plame helped pre-sell a book deal written before Scooter Libby's trial and movie rights sold to a eager studio, probably Michael Moore.  Media bought in, immediately within seconds of their video report; hyping Plame's scenario as she was praised for doing this for Democrats before 2008 primaries.

Remember, Plame claims to be a highly skilled covert operator - nice story to hide behind not having to disclose any details of her career assignments that can now be embellished and emblazoned in high-def or  big-screen presentation.

Well, you may not have to go see this movie or read her book.  A good title could be "Plame or Blame, another Lewinski style millionaire"  Remember, Monica's goal was celebrity for wealth at Clinton's and his friend's expense.

You think Jennifer Garner will play her?

1. Sour grapes - maybe.
    Posted by: "GZarwell" gzarwell@ccconline.net g_zarwell
    Date: Fri Mar 16, 2007 7:46 am ((PDT))
 

et al.

Let's get this on "The Record".  Serving government is an honor at behest of The President, or in military at behest of a General.  It is not a right.  Serving in Congress is at pleasure of  "We The People".  We have that right to fire them, but many don't believe that.  Congress doesn't think we have that resolve, and citizens don't think their votes count - unfortunately, that too, is correct.. 
 
That has been true ever since Clinton had committed us for $140 million to create a machine voting system with capability to preselect returns - it failed first time out 'cause they foregut about our "Electoral College". 
 
Don't let stop you from renouncing Congress.  They are charged to represent you within your communities district of your residentially claimed state for tax purposes, paid for from Federal tax money not effecting your comities goals and objections -  I meant objectives.
 
My perception is that if no one shows up at polling places, vote count will remain as it was in 1961 beyond 2006 if not addressed.  Frauds will show up for media bites and election officials will tell exit pollsters that those votes don't count; and we get stuck with paying for a Congress or legislature not of our choice or at our pleasure.
 
When Bill Clinton cleaned house of 123 Republican U.S. Attorneys left over from Reagan-Bush, he told them to go without fanfare.  It was no longer at pleasure of a President. 
 
Now, Democrats are concerned about eight who were asked to leave.  Actually, there are that should, many at State levels who think they have a political future.  Yes, they were all politically motivated dismissals - expected and traditional.  Sour grapes - maybe.
 
When Clinton told us there would be healthcare reform, he didn't produce and he didn't fire those responsible for not performing.  How could he?  He was having an affair and she didn't know - so she says.  Now that's political motivation!
 
When a General's staff is tight with their level of command, they all leave together.  When Clinton left The White House with "We The People"s furniture, he didn't take his baggage along.  She stayed and became Jewish in New York.  Some others were lucky to have overpaid jobs for six more years. 
 
After leaving Arkansas, Clinton's team left.  We read headlines about how they left.
 
It is not surprising when we hear calls for Campaign Reform, Tax Reform, Judicial reform, Credit reform, and other reforms that some people will leave on their own and others need to be prodded. 
 
Our Judicial system sucks.  Our tax codes are ludicrous. Our Congress is so corrupt that "We The People" have to pay for government services as "user fees" because our tax money cannot cover their entitlements, benefits, and pet projects; let alone our Social Security program, our Medicaid/Medicare, our National Security, and preserve our identities and right to own property through abusive taxes.
 
State governments are dependent upon Federal dollars to pay their bills,  now forming nationwide regulatory associations to cover up their inability to manage their states.  In one such alliance, standardization of regulations duplicating Federal Regulations is creating a takeover of ; i.e.; independent licensed Mortgage brokers through regulations favoring Real Estate brokers and lenders keeping them from competing for points (fees) lender directed programs. 
 
Four years ago, financial regulators in States went after mortgage loan officers for flipping, and other devastating practices like illegal second mortgages in order to require at closing additional amounts above that capable of securing in minutes before closing to disqualify original purchaser in order to steal tens of thousands of dollars in deposit while selling to another buyer at higher price within hours after.
 
State regulators condone that for special arrangements.  In Maryland there is an Insurance Administration you can contact, but they ignore those claims in favor of fraudulent documents being replaced  after-the-fact.  Did you know that if an insurance company buys another, they only buy positive business and not negative - therefore, if anyone comes at you with an unpaid debt from any take-over, that was wiped out through that sale.
 
If you need a lawyer to address that, you will find that they will, like King & Nordlinger, destroy all evidence before a judge renders an opinion or order as they discredit your claim.  They can get a piece of that debt if you agree to their phony claims (USC, Title XV & VIII, Chapter V, Fair Debt Collection Act)*.
 
Today, it turns out that licensed Real Estate fraud is more prevalent  than lenders eager to create loans.  Every trick in lending has been used so anyone could qualify for financially unwise contracts.  Those practices are now collapsing our economic growth as housing values drop,  and drop while balloon payments and adjustable rates devastate those who refied to save their investments as new starts sit. 
 
Banks and warehoused loans will not be able to overcome those abuses of refinance strategies. 
 
In 1987, my wife and I built a house and paid $265,000.  It's replacement value was $115,000, we sold it two years later for $365,000. In 1990, my neighbor who owned his house longer; paid less - lost $200,000.
 
Since that time, our dollar has dropped close to 5 percent in buying power (from 15 cents on the dollar to around 10 cents on the dollar), inflation has remained low, but this housing boom has reached saturation in low down payments, 125 percent refies, and adjustable rates to a point where bank economists are worried that it will effect their bottom line.  Breathing projections like this effect our global status in major investment markets. 
 
When our day ends, all other markets begin next day transactions almost 24 hours ahead of us.  Does that make us a leader or a closer?
 
Baby boomers are downsizing.  That was their plan when empty nesting became a like style and retirement was going to be active.  There are less "X" and "Y" generation following with their Tvo's, iPods, and gameboys (note: motivation to work is missing); thus, new housing starts will slow down.  See, five year planning and our inept Congress cannot see through those real indicators because of their preferential phony politics**.
 
To be quite honest, it is all about politics, and according to our Constitution, "We The People" have that right to change or remove our "politicians" at will.  So stated on July 4, 1776 in Congress, in a unanimous Declaration of the thirteen United States of America.
 
To do that, each of us should alert at least ten voters to support either a total recall of Congress or a non-incumbent vote of confidence next year when we get our National absentee ballots. 
 
It is our right and our responsibility to assure "We The People" have representation in Congress.  Unfortunately, our States cannot afford that so, each elected member of Congress is paid by "We The People" who react more on behalf of media than they do for us.
 
They receive and accept special arrangement money for decisions favoring foreign countries with global enterprises from evolving nations.  When they leave Congress they represent them for access to uninitiated members of Congress.  Talk about a revolving door.  This one doesn't even need a motor.
 
Just think how much being fired as a U.S. Attorney is worth outside of our country.  To have access to a judicial system in the world's most powerful nation... Bill Clinton and Joe Kennedy are exploiting that.
 
More laws are not necessary, but politicians cannot live on inflated value without attaching amendments to create that cash cow from lobbyists.  It's time to vote "no" just as Nancy Reagan asked each of us regarding smoking, sex and drinking.  It doesn't take a village to raise a kid.  It takes responsible parents, Hillary.
 
Having a unique House cleaning in both wings will create more global media and great resolve for "We The People" around the world and may give us everlasting democracy 'cause according to many historians, "our 200 years are up".  By the way, there are good Republicans and Democrats, they just don't want to bother with all this nonsense.  Media does for $1.5 billion in advertising.
 
We need to address this weak cycle of theatrics.  Clowns have spoken, I watched them on BBC last night.  A three-ring circus bigger and better than Ringling Brothers, 'cause it gets International viewers. What is evident is need for another "Ring-Master" with American resolve.
 
Even Hugo Chavez admitted to using theatrics to gain world recognition as did Fidel Castro, and now Mahmoud Ahmadinejad.
 
[Anecdote - As I was discussing this with a friend, his six -year old daughter, Nancy, asked if we were talking about that Alaskan dog sled race}.
 
Ten more, and ten more; my personal mantra until after November 2008.

et al.
Congress finally got it right.  We need a massive withdrawal and Americans need to become aware of it with enthusiastic support.
 
All incumbent Congressmen and Senators must act together and render their resignations no later than November 30 of this year, so Americans can vote in their peers who understand how to pronounce, spell and honor "Entrepreneurs". 
 
It is business in American that makes us great.  It is Congress, both houses  that have sold us out.  "We The People" are the most market participants in the world and other nations want a piece of that at our expense.
 
It is time to wake up to a gold standard dollar again.  This paper one with no collateral just isn't buying what it should.
 
Selling America is about selling resolve, a hard working labor force proud of their production and value to our nation.  They raise families, go on vacations here at home; some overseas spreading American dreams, some winning game show free trips to enjoy other cultures and spread U.S. Dollars into weak economies.
 
That's where it ends.  Our Congress failing to support that American dream with equality for only a few, driving business off-shore, increasing taxpayer liabilities, and acting like spoiled kids with nothing to do; is how they are perceived in and on our media.
 
Their actions as seen around the World has made Americans vulnerable to fraud, terror attacks on foreign soil, kidnapping of our kids for trade elsewhere, and devaluing our dollars to new lows.  Selling out America for their own self-interests is taking American motivation a wrong way on high speed highway.
 
Direction is all a President can give.  It is Congress who is supposed to figure out how to make that direction work. 
 
With no practical experience, they don't even understand that - many never heard of "chain of command" or "the buck stops here".  If they have it was from a few who claim when under pressure they take full responsibility and nothing happens - except in our military where several high level officers lost their positions instead of an opportunity to turn around a problem because they now knew about it. 
 
That problem is Congress denial that it was their fault to under fund military medical systems in favor of pork for their friends and families.  High stakes developers wanting that last large piece of historical military property for new high-rise, high priced residences without having to pay for relocation and new high tech construction of medical facilities for our soldiers. 
 
Hey, they made a deal with the DC government oversight managed by Congress to take special arrangement money allowing taxpayers to fund a complete rebuilding in Maryland further overloading Montgomery county when a responsible position would've been to locate in West Virginia, Kentucky, or Georgia. 
 
At least in those states private businesses make profits and hire lots of private sector workers to operate all those foreign companies.
 
Sitting in their tight chairs, speaking half drunk on television reading hard hitting words their staffs wrote tells me a lot about their perceived role in leadership of our nation.  They just don't have it.  And they don't get it!  Yet, they claim we gave it to them.  Not so!
 
It is time to cut them off from their face-time threats to undercut our security, our power, and our resolve only to "renege" when cameras and microphones are turned off - sometimes not. 
 
Listening to America's "first Ditz" under influence make dishonorable misplaced power threats for the World to capture, then pull back with "weak-knee'd" sobering thoughts is not leadership or Presidential. 
 
We had a President recently who couldn't keep personal things personal and away from national resolve. 
 
Everybody identified with him with immoral behavior thinking that's because her could.  He ran from responsibility, hid his guilt by changing definitions of physical sex, using women as a game toy with his buddies, and introducing strong statements about fixing our economy, our healthcare system, and reform our tax collections. 
 
Once those lobbyists got in his White House, that money kept rolling in to keep him from making good on his promises to reform government for "We The People".  Lesson learned. everything is legal if you don't get caught.  Lesson needed to be learned is that Constitutional rights are limited to "Individuality" and Property ownership", each being violated through ignorance in Congress and greed in our Federal Court system.
 
If you hear a candidate on television give you more rhetoric about an issue she has no control over, instead of telling you her resolve for your future -  elect him, who does.  "'Cause "she" just mouths off about non-issues exploiting her inability to form judgments on anything except "I'll lean on my husband for wisdom.
 
Caution, there is a wicked witch ending that "yellow Brick Road" -- Tin man, Scarecrow, Lion, and Dorothy.

2. What an abomination!
    Posted by: "GZarwell" gzarwell@ccconline.net g_zarwell
    Date: Sun Mar 11, 2007 3:51 pm ((PDT))

et al.:
Here we are, ten months from when we all must decide who to vote for in February next year as our candidates for President.  Polls are already showing us that 420 people will vote for Hillary who is trying to wiggle out of any wartime decisions if elected.  Then her competition who can get 370 votes tells us he doesn't understand our situation either.  Both want to be President.

Jim Web was asked if he would be interested in running for Vice President.  Remember he was Republican, couldn't win in a primary race against George Allen; so, he became Democrat where they flaunted his Republican appointment by President Reagan to Secretary of the Navy, plus his questionable writings denigrating women.  His priority is to empty out our prison system of 2.5 million incarcerated.  From recent news, you'd think he was trying to save a lot of new peers on The Hill.

Concerns by all are having to carry-on or run from Iraq and Afghanistan without any concept of what happens then?  See, none of them have any experience reassembling a weapon under pressure.  They all learned from their charismatic leader, Bill, how to run from that, ignore an opportunity for a prestigious educational honor, and hang a blue dress over a box of real estate files, with travel vouchers behind that - right Vincent?

Immediate resolve by our Congress is to condemn, blame, and hope that ------ hits, but doesn't stick on their congressional wall. 

I'm impressed by the number of Republicans thinking about entering the race.  Not one has much more in credentials than those others.  As one top anchor remarked, they're all looking for something to do. 

America's mayor has milked 9-11 so long some voters may not remember his name as a 15 minute hero. 

Another has problems with remembering which side of a senatorial issue he should take while forgetting voters didn't want him his last attempt.  Then some newbie's want in because those others have no credibility of which they offer little as well.  No P&L responsibility in a start up company. 

Entrepreneur is who pays taxes.  These are pioneers who risk their all, life savings as well, to add value in our economy, for which they struggle with much rejection until someone invests - hopefully before motivation for success is destroyed.

I've assisted hundreds of startups in long term planning - more than just 80 days on NASDAQ, or 20 minutes on NYSE.    When I started we always planned 20 years out until the "me" generation decided  to let others worry after "me" was rich. 

Some projections were only 5 years . Some only three years to a merger.  A current one is 200 years out.

This latter one, has greatest potential for delivering wealth to initial investors in near terms of five years and long term residuals to stakeholders around the world in a $44 Trillion market.  For my own security; I am holding this one close, don't want too many shysters to get in on it. 

Now, remarkably, media reported that those declared Democrats have maintained marriage, but may appear on a new list coming out of a Federal Court case, while Republicans have had more wives, but may not appear on that list, but may have to justify their affairs adding maybe another wife or someone else's to their list .

It's getting complicated over many parameters that just don't matter outside of "hey - its 2009 not 1900" a media mantra for primetime programming and a few Television Evangelists that got caught.

Office of the President is all about Character.  It requires ethical, professional , and experienced decision making.  Resolve has a lot to do with leadership.  For instance, you don't follow a leader into a bad situation unless you can retrieve that leader and win.  Good leaders develop good leaders.  Those that follow must be better equipped to make decisions, obey orders, and save their buddies or buddettes.  Most importantly, they must save their butts for that they are trained.  If they save yours, that training paid off.  If not - kiss your... well you know the rest.

Polls shown today had very low numbers for Republicans that probably reflects last election polling techniques.  Thirty-five percent more Democrats polled than Republicans, so for an accurate assessment at this "late" stage, you must take 1000 minus 350; then of remaining 650, divide that by 2 giving R1 221 against D1"s 188.  D2's 137 gives R2 104.  To reach media findings add another 35 percent of 1000 to D1's and D2's numbers resulting in D1 = 426 & D2 = 389   [Caution do not use this mathematical formula to balance your checkbook or debit card statement.  It is also a good reason for considering who you should not vote for  - any existing or former member of Congress who will not look out for your wealth building, your productivity, or your values.

Extraordinarily, remarkably, R2D2 and C3PO win.  That puts Dr. Spock and Sam Donnellson in similar galaxies with Billary.  What an abomination!

With all this frivolity, what makes any rejected or sitting Congressman or Senator think they can win an election voted by the same people who threw them out?  Answer: Media salesmen selling airtime 10 months in advance of run dates.  Just like scalpers at FedEx stadium and three months ago's Super Bowl.  Even many of those tickets were as fraudulent as November's elections.

See, it has nothing to do with "We the voters" who by Constitutional rights are "We The People".   If you haven't requested an absentee ballot from FEC for our next national election for President, you have some time, 'cause they can't run the presses until they get nominee's names.   What they will learn, though, is how important it is to you that your vote be counted legitimately, fairly and with a certain personal resolve for them to get it right.

As far as campaign reform...I've heard about that since my first campaign in 1988, and nothings changed except the number of media dollars being spent as dollar value decreases.  These expenditures as excessive as they are only confirm how much a bad product needs to be sold - not on value or need, but misperceived desire and phony emotional, frightening appeals.   Red boxes used to out sell other boxes until they all appeared in red on grocery shelves.

If you haven't read today's election results from Russia, try to look it up on the web.  Makes our elections look amateur in comparison.  They really have to plan ahead over there.  For great confusion, look up Australia's preferential voting scheme.  Each of those nation's have nearly 15 party's listed on their ballots as was evidenced in Iraq, Palestinian Territory, and Iran, too.

In 2008, let's make it an election where instead, "he/she was lesser of two evils": everyone says, "I'll vote for you - I like what you stand for".  I hear that all the time.  It's coffeetalk!

2."much ado about nothing"
    Posted by: "GZarwell" gzarwell@ccconline.net g_zarwell
    Date: Wed Feb 28, 2007 12:55 pm ((PST))
 
et al.:
Today, marks a 153 year of Republican Party politics.  In 1854, our 16th President, born in Kentucky went to a Ripon Wisconsin schoolhouse to contribute in forming an alternative party.
 
Seven years later, he left his Senate Seat representing Illinois to take the Oath of Office of The President of The United States.  During his 4 years in office he was Commander in Chief over Union Forces in a civil war on our soil over an issue of Emancipation that fueled his assassination in Washington's Ford's theatre balcony.
 
That five-year war extended to 1868.
 
"Let us have faith that right makes might, and in that faith let us to the end dare to do our duty as we understand it', he remarked. 
 
Could use some of that wisdom in Congress today.  As our Congress debates how to reject their own resolve to do their duty because they don't understand it, says "much ado about nothing", to quote a Brit.

1. Ten more, and on, and on, again.
    Posted by: "GZarwell" gzarwell@ccconline.net g_zarwell
    Date: Sun Feb 25, 2007 12:55 pm ((PST))
 
et al.:
Seems my newly coined word caught some attention.  For caring, thanks.  Perhaps, I should not try to catch attention to very serious considerations. Nah!
 
Most politicians use a form of "that defined language" to get media attention.  Media makes money from that in advertising then claims it as news. 
 
In fact, their latest sales pitch is all about candidates and parties needing to spend $1.5 billion to get attention from voters.  They even set funding targets for early spending to raise their own receipts since media advertising is waning as shoppers go to satellite radio, Internet offers, and shopping networks.  Some still cut coupons out of papers, and those wrapped around our door handles and mail box flags.
 
I prefer telephone orders and going into a store to see merchandise.  It sometimes takes more than one trip 'cause I don't try things on before going home.  Guess bodies change over time.
 
Media thinks it appeals to popular opinions based upon 1,000 people polled representing 300,000,000+ Americans and who knows how many illegal aliens and immigrants awaiting citizenship.
 
Point is - money doesn't win elections in American.  It has the same effect as your vote.
 
Nil, Nata, Nutt'n, Nein, Nolo, Non, Nej, Nee, Ei, Oxt, No, nei, Ne, Nao, Het...
 
Then, how do we do it?  Purple ink?  Not entirely.  Although, purple goes with any outfit and represents many family lineages on this planet.
 
We vote. 
 
To make it legitimate; everyone getting this needs to forward it to 10 more, then others must send it to ten more;  and on, and on, and on, again.
 
Here's why.  Voting has been corrupted for so long that a few feel they know better than you and I about who should lead our government.  Those people were very upset when their corruption was disrupted in 2000, and again in 2004.  Many more were caught unaware in 2006.  Some of that cleansing was good.
 
To prevent an overthrow of "We the People", I strongly suggest that each of you with everyone you know who is likely to vote send an email [pubrec@fec.gov ] or a snail mail to the Federal Election Commission requesting a "paper, national election, absentee ballot" for your vote in 2008 for President.  They will probably hand it off to another agency, but they will notice our resolve to get it right.
 
It's not just about money and corruption.  It's about our "honor" and "right to vote".
 
It should take about 8 weeks to get over 250 million requests into their hands.  Politicians have been discussing election reform for years, decades and maybe longer.  Perhaps in eight weeks we can shake it up with resolute requests to serve "We The People" instead of self important shills of a few. 
 
My guess is that 250 million requests for something that doesn't exist  will soon be prepared because to print that many ballots, a single source needs to get started now, multiple sources will speed it up and move some government money from media to printing.  An Industry being over taken by Internet capabilities to publish and dispatch in seconds vs. waiting for snail mail through rain, sleet, and snow, plus a scanner cannot decide where to send mistyped envelopes magazines and junque mail.  Got any suggestions for the scanner?
 
We can also devise an online voting mechanism that can report election results within minutes of state closings with tighter security and accuracy than most financial institutions and banks.
 
Also, it will prove to our public servants that "We The People" can get something done in six tenths of a week more than Congress does in 7.4 work weeks spent on "our business" over a full year.
 
How remarkable would that be?  We who communicate instantly could tell them to get serious 'cause they can be gone.
 
Hopefully, all early runners, wannbes, hopefuls, and out of work former mayors, governors, senators / representatives, and all other of the current 535 members of Congress will be doing what many of us have done since being ripped off by Pharmaceuticals, HMO's and media's selling our, "our resolve".  Struggling to save for retirement with more zeros and less buying power.
 
Getting back to my "coinage" - "Dumocrap" - definition can be found at www.genescoffeetalks.com.  However, comments came back to me stating that I was calling names of leadership that should be praised and encouraged.
 
See, Democrats identified - not one of the tens of responses were from Republicans. 
 
Just so you don't misperceive the "coin" - it refers to a form of English used by Congressional leadership.  It can be used as a noun, intransitive verb, verb transitive, but, not a pronoun, or adjective.

2. Ten months, yuck!

et al:
Dumocrap is getting so thick around here, it is hard to know where to step.  Be careful.
You all know how much I hate to criticize this naive Congress of wannabes who have lost touch with their brains.  Perhaps they are trying to qualify for disability pay.  That is their last bastion of unearned income for them.
 
First, they voted for war.
 
Second, they denied WMD's.  Now our troops are being tested upon by al-Quada to see how WMD can be used in normal city situations during day to day activities.  Reuters had film of our troops destroying WMD's in 2002 as David Kay was escorted to emptied warehouses by Iraqi tour guides.
 
Third, several spouses of Presidential candidates were funding al-Queda through charities formed with former Clinton bureaucrats providing fund raising.
 
Fourth, they wanted to change direction of our involvement from Republican to Democrat using exactly those same strategies, rationale and troop levels.  Their only difference was from resolve to double guessing.
 
Fifth, they want to withdraw from responsibility for their vote in order to win a perceived victory in 2008 where their candidates are proving irresponsibility, loss of funding from their prime media sources, accusations of lying, cheating, and don't forget Vincent Foster's contribution at a revolutionary Fort along the Potomac.
 
Sixth, their former state elected Governors are getting out to protect their assets.
 
Seventh, they cannot categorize their candidates into market segments, 'cause they already destroyed their Political correctness within one month of their disarray in Congress.
 
Eighth, Pelosi isn't unpatriotic.  She's a ditz.  Followed by a Congress of loud mouthed insignificant face-timers seeking lobbyist wealth from talk show appearances.
 
Ninth, those travel agency tickets lost in the White House were moved out with the furniture and Whitewater documents more than six years ago under the blue dress.
 
Tenth, media has begun to see through all the hype without substance and is looking for new stories without becoming treasonous in support of Congressionals without resolve , responsibility, or time to work on taxpayer paid government issues.
 
Eleventh, America is made up skin tones from white through many colors of gray and a rainbow to black.  So now black is being redefined by pollsters who challenge political correctness as currently defined.
 
Twelfth, Christmas was two months ago and there should no more misgiving gifts to Congressionals out of tradition.
 
Thirteenth, tax time is a coming and we should all deduct our Congressional percentage for supporting  our underemployed public servants - 86% of combined compensation multiplied by 535 members divided by number of productive taxpayers (those not receiving income from government programs) as an additional dependent.
 
I'll stop at this because the neighbor's cat walked by and it had lost it's white spot.  Alert, there's only ten months left to hear all this dumocrap until maybe we'll send them all running to a rehab shelter (it's there way of ducking responsibility for their celebrity) to avoid litigation for fraudulent use of taxpayer monies.
 
Next time demand a paper ballot. If FEC doesn't get it right at the polls. 
 
No state should conduct an election without potentially issuing one absentee ballot per registered voter.  Anything less is voter disenfranchisement.  And, that doesn't discriminate against anybody. 
 
A recount should be demanded before any release of results are announced on election night.  Those performing that recount should be under-aged children who cannot vote and would be randomly selected from Selective Service registrants or those who enlisted awaiting assignment to a basic training billet. 
 
Just a few considerations to think about as you hear our media spin it.  Ten months, yuck!

1. It is a people by law.
    Posted by: "GZarwell" gzarwell@ccconline.net g_zarwell
    Date: Tue Feb 20, 2007 4:12 am ((PST))

et al.:
Congress finally left.  It's warming up in Washington and some of that government money is being spent in America's retail shops.
 
Priorities to Congress far exceed their ability to comprehend.  They complain about 160,000 troops in Iraq where danger exists while 700,000 gang members kill and murder innocent local citizens. Most are recruited over the internet.  Have they ever addressed that in their districts?
 
No!
 
News media finally had the guts to show that America is not safe at home.  Why you ask?
 
People are so irresponsible they leave ice and snow on their sidewalks, on their vehicle roofs,  and let it blow into other's windscreens.  Public transportation runs down city residents.  Marked official vehicles exceed speed limits by 10-15 mph all while reports are that a bus traveling 2 mph over posted speed limits killed a 22 year old mother crossing a street.
 
Perhaps those Congressional wannabes for President need to concentrate on doing their jobs instead of trying to find a new one while on our, OUR, payroll.  Do you know anyone else who gets paid to job hunt without having to address their responsibilities to their current boss?  Yah! You probably do. 
 
None of them has made a decision without changing it later.  Everyone of them has changed their positions to be acceptable by popular opinion polls that register consensus of up to 1,000 people out of 300 Million to express American direction.  How lame!
 
None has had any P&L experience in production of products that add value to an economy instead of moving profits through percentage to a few.  Without gross community, state, national products our traditional villages are becoming ghost towns being approached by foreign governments with relief not being available through our Congressional empty suits.
 
Remember that thought about service economies - there's very little circulation.  Cause of death to many.
 
Does anyone ever stop to think why our labor is so expensive in the 50 states in comparison with those in Asia, Eastern Europe and Africa?  It's quite simple.  Those nations can thrive on fewer dollars because they get everyone working.  In America, we don't value community and hard work.  We praise just the opposite; lack of value, lack of moral strength, lack of individuality.
 
Every day I receive 1,000 emails that include less than 15 valid ones and 985 others with "get rich" schemes, "free" this, drug offers I don't need, bogus software, and requests to verify accounts I don't even have, all - enabling pirates to raid accounts through ID theft.
 
And, Bank of America encourages that by selling your ID to one lawyer after another who using fraudulent means gets unaware account holders build a case for them citing federal laws designed to protect us from those tactics.  Judges go along with it, too.  Oh, everyday you can alert another scammer by clicking on emails telling you how to beat up ID thieves.
 
Now, let's reflect on Congress responsibility to oversee our society and assure us opportunity to have life, liberty, and a pursuit of happiness.   They don't care.  It is a goal of Congress to disable you for their self appointed importance.
 
From my point of view, all of them have lost sight of our horizons.  Each has, this weekend, stressed change in how we engage our adversaries and insurgencies.  Yet, each one of those 14 already announced refers to his/her idea by reiterating that which is in place.  Hey, that's been the plan since 1983. 
 
Only difference I heard was "my" instead our country's strategy is to begin drawing down after peace is achieved.  It's all for "'free' face-time" in front of talking heads in stuffed suits.
 
So, now let's redirect that reported gang energy on our streets to fight combatants not yet on our streets.  If they're old enough to be sentenced to boot camps for disciplinary training, then lets put together squads that can use their psyche to defend our troops in Baghdad, Afghanistan, Somalia and other places requiring other than Congressional bickering.
 
All they want is attention. 
 
Our media is right there to give it to them with concerned looks on their faces and potential for reward from, as George Stephanopoulos says, "Where news is made". 
 
News should be reported in media - not made there.  That was Dan Rather's career.
 
After all their yelling and crying over non-binding threats, they went home to, as we say, contemplate their navels.  They don't need to come back to work for a while 'cause they only have 5.4 weeks left on their plate. 
 
Now, here's an idea.  Since taxpayers pay their salaries and benies, perhaps we should all take a deduction for our public servant.  We won't have to pay social security for them.  They don't get it - yah!  Most of them don't pay into it for their nanny or house staff either.  See, they don't get it.
 
Taking the number of Congressional members with their staffs, multiply it by their salaries $166,000, add their benefits, divide that number by those taxpayers in our private sector, and subtract 86 percent of that from your gross income.   In Congress, they have a different formula, a different work ethic, and lack of moral (used in its true definition) responsibility.
 
By the way, Corporations do it all the time - deduct cost of employees.  Get this, a corporation is a legal entity formed to give a company a persona for tax purposes.  It is a people by law.
 
Congress has not only tapped them for a percentage of their profits, it taps into their executive pay and employee pay, plus they require all those who work there to pay personal income tax plus Medicare, Medicaid, and social security.  In other words, every dollar of profit gets taxed a half dozen times before it gets taxed again at a cash register.  Thus, reducing its value to community.  And, Congress doesn't provide healthcare for those who work hard producing value for our country. 
 
They would rather give to those who don't.
 
They're supposed to be above all us as leaders, setting standards and being examples of excellent citizenship.  They are jokes.
 
The only thing they're above is the law.  While real citizens go out of their way to save others in mountain whiteouts, cars driven into rivers by flooding storms, or racing into danger to save another incapacitated by fire, smoke or balance. 
 
 Instead, we have one in Congress who fired a 50 cal. weapon from his boat into an innocent Viet Nam village. 
 
Another drove his date off a bridge in Chappaquiddick and left her there - blaming his cousin.  Yet, another wrote trash books. 
 
Then several attacked our kids who strived hard for selection to be pages while their party leader in the Whitehouse did the same. 
 
Still, another couldn't even find her legal documents from a Whitewater deal because it was hidden by a blue dress next to a truck load of "We the People's" furniture.
 
See, they don't get it.  Butt, they want it!

1. Nuttin hunni!

    Date: Sat Feb 17, 2007 4:13 am ((PST))
et al.:
Dumocrats have it wrong again.
 
They should've just taken their "Congressional Break" to think about how to cut our budget*.  Not only did they spend two weeks debating nonsense.  I mean - nonbinding legislation that won't be a historical vote, but merely an hysterical fauxpau.
 
Will Congress ever get down to representing our interests; over that, which is in their, left rear pocket?   No!
 
They now only have 5.4 weeks left this year before re-election.  So, what can their record be with only 12.8 weeks 'til 2008?
 
Well, they can say they squandered our precious time on a nonbinding resolution and then found out, they were wrong about questioning American resolve.  Or, they can reflect on their lack of concentration on spending our money to reduce healthcare costs in favor of TV and web presence for face time babbling about how they don't have any other plan than that of our President. 
 
Another reason why they can't get reelected is because none of them have earned that right through thoughtful legislation to better or preserve our individual rights and right to own property.  They neither speak positively about America nor deter our adversaries from coming here illegally to do us harm - well, you know that might just get our troops home - you know to counter an insurgency on our shores.
 
Nancy Pelosi can head up our Western defense security with her "National Guard".   And perhaps, Senator Clinton can go to England with her famous husband to avoid service.
 
Our media has never reported a favorable news bite without a negative lead-in.  This, too, speaks well for Americans in world views.  Get off of it - it doesn't speak well at all. 
 
New rules should set fines for negative reports that are not constructive with in-depth analysis.  We should impose serious penalties for neglecting accountability of facts while questioning unsubstantiated conclusions that render treasonous attitudes. These fines could be used to fund pro se campaigns.
 
Media's opened ended nuances are ridiculing American resolve. 
 
Congress in most cases was not elected, but appointed through fraudulent voting practices.  They fought off voter ID's as un-American because a legitimate election may not get those perennial candidates re-elected.
 
What can a Congressman do outside of mouthing off in front of a camera and shake hands while grabbing a contribution check?   Nuttin hunni!
 
Some can paint houses, others can practice law (strike that).  All others can practice law.  Some can ____________ you fill in the blank.
 
* "Cut our budget" refers to lessening amounts to spend as opposed to drafting a budget with increases.  A good cut would be to strike 86 percent off their payroll and benefits for time spent off the job without authorized leave.  After all, they make more from non-taxable lobbyist perks (only while in office - the position not the facility).

That's profound.
    Posted by: "GZarwell" gzarwell@ccconline.net g_zarwell
    Date: Sat Feb 10, 2007 3:09 pm ((PST))
et al.:
Congress has successfully eroded America's resolve through its self-serving, poll gathering numbers for their re-election campaigns last year and in 2004.
 
In 1983, I briefed our Joint Chiefs of Staff on evolution of our military doctrine to address by 2000, changing global priorities and new visions of battlefields.  That being from battlegrounds to cash registers or financial dominance.
 
Well, you can see that Congress by reversing its resolve from historic support of our nation to appeasing their political incorrectness sold us out for perceived self-wealth.  Not surprisingly, world leaders took notice.
 
Some have challenged America's resolve not in battle, but by building new financial alliances promulgated by Congress' weakening resolve in non-binding nonsense. 
 
Our strategic partners, after four years of quiet support, now, take our phony media polls to heart to gain support of oil producing countries who can impact on our economy as global markets by-pass America.
 
And for what?
 
To give our adversaries support from our allies?  To declare they don't believe in our military and financial strength?  Make sound bites for more control of working "class" citizens?  Those who pay the bills.
 
It surprises me that when Congress could've provided constructive analysis through their oversight responsibilities, they didn't; in favor of campaigning for 2004 and legislation to increase government support of lobbyist interests to bilk our private sector taxpayers who produce financial assets for this nation rather than financial liabilities.
 
Yes, we have the strongest economy in the world, right now!  I know that, but with current Congressional leadership, inexperienced in global relationships, how can they claim wisdom?  Each publishes inane comments that they "thought about it" for several years.  Wow!
 
Jay Leno last year joked about Dubai managing our ports and added that "without that portion of their British contract takeover, they would not buy American made products. 
 
Duh!, he added, We got them, there.  All of are stuff's made in China".
 
Is our inexperienced Congress that naive?  They have not earned respect as our leadership, but instead they failed by opening doors to laziness undermining America taxpayers and legitimate registered voters with all its wrong priorities.
 
Perhaps, Congress needs to seek and groom it's own leadership and let an executive run our Executive branch.  Direction comes from atop a leadership triangle, not a mid-level or even the bottom rung unless of course each individual adds something creditable to national resolve.
 
That's profound.
 
Only one reason comes to mind to elect a member of Congress to President is too get him or her out of Congress.  Unfortunately, it is also thee worst reason to vote for a Presidential candidate.
 
Make them prove their resolve to lead and not follow.  Demand they perform for their pay and benefits.  At present they are all frauds and should be granted those same benefits our Courts gave to Skillings.   Congressional tokens recently did.  There are 533 more who need that, too!
 
You know why they don't get caught.  They're not available.
 
Congress sounds, performs and looks like a sandbox full of kids trying to get that beach ball, but remember last summer, our little girl took it home - now, she wants a bigger plane.  I guess all those kids she took to the podium haven't gotten home, yet.
 
Take a close look at entitlements in both Federal and State budgets to see who gets benefit of legitimate producers - versus - closing down our manufacturing in favor of social welfare in forms of financial burden 'cause companies can't make profits (that's where tax monies come from) by doubling wages with mandatory government programs requiring third nation low-wages just to make a profit.
 
It used to be that our co-production programs built alliances.  Today, that overseas production is our financial competition - that new battlefield identified in 1983 and in 1986 doctrinal changes leading into our 21st Century or our 231st year of American History. 
 
That's 2,771 months of building leadership now up for grabs by non-practicing attorneys sitting on ever tightening seats (reference is too those chairs like those replaced at our National Theatre) in Washington.
 
A bright side is that as most of our national production declines and prices go up, maybe all Americans will have parity with Congress by working 7.4 weeks a year.  Oops!  Without cash flow, how will they spend their "free" time.  Even lobbyists won't be able to entertain without inflated sales revenues for their "clients".
 
I received a survey yesterday from a reputable company asking me asking me if it is important to me to buy American goods.  My answer was yes.  But, where can we get them? 
 
A service economy is only good when those receiving that service can afford them.  We must circulate those little promissory notes that have numbers printed on them in exchange for products to build a community that can pay for those services.  Using those notes; we don't have to drive a horse drawn buggy loaded with farm goods that can be exchanged for clothing and materials to build our "property" into a homestead.
 
There are two things our Constitution holds dear - individual and property rights.  What's all this other nonsense?
 
My favorite lines from "The American President" are "America isn't easy.  America is advanced citizenship... you gotta want it bad". 
 
Unfortunately, our Congress and all those early-birds looking for the blue light specials don't get it.   They can't even sell it, 'cause they don't understand resolve, security, priority, or where their bread is buttered.

They voted for the "WAR"!
    Posted by: "GZarwell" gzarwell@ccconline.net g_zarwell
    Date: Wed Feb 7, 2007 6:51 am ((PST))

et al.:
Well!  Here they go again! (paraphrase from President Ronald Reagan)
 
Congress (both Senate and House) in its lack of wisdom, along with leading Presidential Candidates pronouncing their inability to do their jobs will vote tomorrow confirming that they have absolutely no clue.
 
Each will tell us their actions in 2002 were wrong.  It is always followed by, "had I known then what I know now, I wouldn't have voted for it". 
 
That's not why we voted them to sit for 7.4 weeks per year to do.  I, for one, want our Congress to do their jobs 24/52 - educated options that they will vote for.  Get some introspection.  It comes from experience in many areas of life for free.  However, when your resume is "non-practicing attorney elected to Congress"  it's fairly thin.  In that case you rely on faulty half-truths, misinformation to sell a bad idea, and misdirected sound bites of innuendo and speculation.
 
Note, I did not call them leaders.  They have to earn that.  "Leading is caring with knowledge to stand up for convictions with resolve knowing decisions are irrevocable for others to carry out." - Zarwell 2007 
 
They voted for the "WAR"!
 
If our kids, today's students, don't learn how to write a term paper, fail to research their topics, arrive at disapproving decisions not in step with our seculars, then they fail - no reward.   Not so in Congress.
 
This is real hard to understand that success in Congress parallels those who fail in academia.
 
When they fail, it costs us our wealth, constitutional rights, and our lives without any retribution to them except reelection and an inane right to free media to demonstrate their inability to form a resolute argument except that "only the President has" - Chuck Hagel today.  He qualified that he was only a Senator. 
 
Did you get that?    He's only a Senator.  His lobbyists don't deal with "WAR".  Thus, no one is paying him to make bold, resolute statements "for" or "against".  There's no money in it for them 'cause Defense manages its own budget, contracting, and weaponry life-cycle .
 
However, every time Congressmen (Politically Correct)  vote binding or non-binding resolutions / non-legislation costs them more than just amendment money.  It costs them our trust. 
 
Our leader presented Congress every opportunity to devise or empower our leaders to make those decisions to secure our freedoms.  They couldn't take time to research and dig for information.  Why? 
 
It would cost them easy campaign money opportunities from lobbyists instead of reading timeless reports and untold numbers of testimony from experienced leaders in military, business, and global alliances.
 
Now, almost four years later, they want us to believe their nonsense vote will protect our ass~ests by betraying us one more time for sound bites and self-imposed importance.
 
An outside observation is that our Congressmen were more interested in selling their brand of politics to our global allies than global security combating terrorism.  All for prominence in a 2004 Presidential bid.  They blew that and are trying again to "sell us and the world" not to respect our global responsibilities as a great "Free Nation"
 
Aside:  It's not a Democracy Congress at a democratic retreat.  It is truly a democrat Congress.  It hasn't changed from Republican to Democracy as much as it has from Republican to Democrat (prudent to tolerant).
 
This whole idea of security is underscored by 12 states defying a bill for a national driver's license.  Let me guess on this one.  In many countries, there are domestic or regional passports, similar to birth certificates, to move throughout their nation as well as International passports to travel outside of their homeland. 
 
National drivers license would give us that ability to verify our mobile society while checking our security at our borders.  Passports would continue for International travel and are actually more valuable when a second photo ID can verify that information without having Secretary of State Apostilles.   State Driver's licenses could also be used to verify a national license or national ID giving Political party, physical description, and emergency medical clarification.
 
In any case at least two forms of barcode - photo ID should be required for any inquiry or some form of Government issued document with a barcode case number / document number, or phone number.
 
Perhaps Governors feel they will lose revenues from sales of driver's license.  Perhaps,  Governors feel their costs of implementing a national mandate is too costly without return.  Or, perhaps, Governors want more control over their constituencies.  Ultimately, they must want responsibility to govern their territory without Federal assistance programs to pay their bills. 
 
If this were a multiple guess question - all three former would be considered valid answers while the latter is completely erroneous in their eyes.  However, States rights have been a big bone of contention since WW I. 
 
We only have to look to Europe to find out that each governing body wants power to control independently. 
 
That's what drives human behavior.  Someone has to make a decision and others can debate it, but ultimately, one decision is made.  Euro-xxxx is a contemporary concept that was dreamed up by groups of nations to compete economically with our U.S.A. economic strength.  Asian and South American alliance is another as are the African nations and middle-East.
 
Each State wants that, but not at a cost to "their" constituencies. but to all of us who from some states have balanced budgets that each taxpaying, private sector employee figures he pays for. 
Unfortunately, many making up our taxpaying private sector rely on only a few to pay those bills.  And, that money goes in larger amounts to the Feds.  States then collect a percentage, but it doesn't cover costs of State government salaries, wages, benefits and entitlement, so every infrastructure, social, or environmental problem needs Federal dollars whether or not it effects those in prudent states.
 
Question can a State ignore Federal policy and have its governor serve a second term?
 
Time for FOOTBALL.  Go Bears, since Greenbay isn't there.

et al.:

This is a response to an avid "CoffeeTalks" reader.  I thought you should all have an opportunity to review it and form your own perspective...
 
...Bush has never complained about being outgunned.  Polls are phony concoctions of media taking a less than 1,000 "random" sample from a 300 million population.  Bush is at America's beck and call 24/7. 
 
Congress is at our beck and call 7.4 weeks and 44.6 weeks to lobbyists.  I have never heard one detail from Congressional (either party) discussions on issues except they have a better way to do what Bush is already doing.
 
Too much disclosure of security issues changes them from secure to counterintelligence for our adversaries.  Restraint and classification had a role historically that is underwhelming becoming money making (lobbyist and media) disclosures dangerously close to treason.
 
From unpublished portion of polls that I get from pollsters, 86 percent of their samples show approval.  It doesn't sell their point of view.  What happened to Republican incumbents last year was basically their own doing - failing to keep their resolve.  They lost due to psychological warfare from negative advertising creating polling results highly touted as rule.
 
It was also first election of outspoken voting fraud and none of those states (19) had recount trails. 
 
For example: ABC reported many Republicans winning by 57-65 percent from exit polls, but just before 11 News they were told those numbers didn't count leaving anchors across this country questioning "why didn't they?"  SARS- a$140 million '90's contract for polling software that could be breeched!
 
Jim Webb was fired by Reagan for not supporting policy to build up our Navy fleet.  He was in office just months of his term.  Last night he should have listened to Bush to find out what was presented because his observation was as inane as Hillary and Obama's.  Both reiterated Bush plan with exception of their claim;  "I think I can do better".  Both claim more experience and yet neither has any idea of what's going on in military thinking, planning, or negotiations with Iraqi government or even in Iran, Syria, and Korea.
 
10-25 seconds news bites does not make an expert on war.  One ABC News clip showed a soldier walk away from Hillary's hand shake disgusted by it for the news bite.  Hillary smiling like "the clown" she is, turned with a weird smile into a camera shot.
 
Reports are exactly as Bush had projected.  North Korea is back at negotiations with a six-nation coalition answering to their neighbors with American backup. 
 
Your thoughts are extremely valuable - keep them coming.
 
Historical fact:  In '70's perceptions of a failing military in Viet Nam, I was brought onboard at Pentagon to reverse negative perceptions.  Through a one-man , ten-week media blitz, I traveled to 205 televisions stations placing three PSA's that I produced with NWAyer ABH International and within those ten weeks achieved a 12,000 new recruits from just 22 states.  Our goal was "Project 6000".   What we learned was that media personage never had military training; teachers neither nor did many parents who avoided that draft.  "70's recruits joined as volunteers out of patriotism.  Three years later I had a ten man-team, and six PSA's plus produced one hybrid PSA for each state.  That campaign in less than nine months raised troop levels from 65% to 110% with polling showing positive perceptions of our military.  Media became so positive about opportunities for our young people in our seven services, it was almost embarrassing.
 
Psychologists think bravery comes from our subconscious, and they sight that as an explanation of heroism on the battlefield.  Wesley Austin said immediately after his act of heroism that : it was because of his military training.  That's where heroes learn those skills that they can recall in split second decision.  It is as familiar to sports celebrities as in heroism - programming one's muscles to react to a set of stimuli.  Try to play golf without that, or any physical sport.
 
Our deterrent strategies frightened Russia's Generals.  Other nations saw American resolve and there was peace.  In our last decade, that resolve waned from complacency and lack of understanding Vince Lombardi strategy - "offense best defense" and General Wickham's statement of deterrence "to deter war you have to be ready to go to war". 
 
By mid '90's American Resolve changed to greed and soldiering was boring - Colonels couldn't get combat time for promotion considerations,  Politics became ruthless and military discipline dropped with more sexual harassment being reported in our media against an undertone that "if the Commander in Chief can do it so, can we".  They even took "being a gentleman" out of the oath of office.  Now, you just have to be an officer.
 
Rest is history.  Motivation of our troops in Iraq is patriotism with dedication to complete their mission - their job - not to sit and watch criminals over-run an emerging democracy.
 
Iraqi leadership had many restraints on our military; but are now willing to jointly eradicate that unintelligent criminal element from outside.  ABC's Chris Cuomo talked with Iraqi medical students who confirmed they are afraid of that outside element and don't want Americans to think all Iraqi's are dangerous.  Surprisingly, most don't see that ideological difference between Sunni and Shia, just outside interference to deny education, wealth, prosperity, personal freedom, and democracy.
 
On another front, Iranian youth want to remove their President who is very unsettling to them.  They don't want their President to provoke an American lead UN invasion, but they love America values and resolve.
 
Finally, I heard many points from my "CoffeeTalks" threaded through last night's address.  As well as I watched closely Speaker Pelosi's reactions.  She was much more supportive than media like to hype, and cuts to Kennedy in his drunken Chappaquiddick stupor, Joe Biden and John Kerry in the bag, while Hillary posed like a mannequin waiting for her exit poll to reiterate Bush's plan as hers, were construed differently than that recorded on video at 11:00.

...if you don't flintch.

et al.:

Following Democratic politics makes your head spin.  There just isn't one of them with any substance.  They all want to change American's direction by following Bush's game plan.  Today, we hear his State... address after all of them distort what will be said. 
 
They all say their experience in Congress gives them experience and knowledge of how to change America and regain World respect.  These are the same individuals that when they had that opportunity turned tail in favor of undermining American resolve for re-election funding. 
 
That scared many of our allies to quietly assist while publicity keeping a neutral media presence to not encourage terrorism on their soil.  Guess that didn't work in Spain, France, Germany or England.
 
Getting back to "their experience": (1) First Hispanic to run; (2) Another African American; (3) Recent failed VP candidate or two; (4) A rejected Military fraud; (5) First woman who promises to lean on her husband; and (6-8) several members of Congress who sold out to media polls.  Up against that roster are a Mormon; POW; NYC Mayor; several members of Congress who sold out to media polls, plus some red state governors now out of office.
 
Not one of them worth your tax dollars or hard earned money in contributions.  They are worthy of tough scrutiny of philosophies, funding sources; and education.  We must respect babbling, but according to each of them we must tolerate their religious and life style preferences - or do we?
 
Here's a note:  Alberto Gonzales during a Congressional hearing was challenged by Senator Arlen Specter on a new law, Military Commissions Act of 2006, enacted by Congress last September.  Concerns by Congress are its specificity about Habeas Corpus. 
 
"Another provision in the law seems to target American citizens by stating that “any person subject to this chapter who, in breach of an allegiance or duty to the United States, knowingly and intentionally aids an enemy of the United States ... shall be punished as a military commission … may direct.”
 
Thinking about this - If I were a Congressman, I would be very cautious of how I publicly discussed our operations, strategies, and tactics in Iraq in front of media.  Trading combat intelligence for media rating points and international campaign contributions is definitely a violation.
 
Get this, it passed their scrutiny. Now it's law!
 
Media is not that immune either if taken by a very strict interpretation of that law in retrospect to definitions of an early term "Treason" of which several historical Politicians experienced.
 
All those Presidential candidates already declared may have a real problem as well.  Violation of "Hatch Act" for campaigning while in office and now this.  Hatch does not specify Members of Congress but implies any employee paid by the Federal Government must follow the rules - no campaigning while on the Federal clock.
 
Surprisingly, Hillary went out of her way when criticizing President Bush's policy by stirring up bottom feeders with her take on his programs - actually they're on same sheet of music. 
 
That means she endorses Bush Policy.  That Senate and House non-binding resolution actually demonstrates their ineptness on oversight and experience.  Did they attach amendments to make it a bill?
 
However, her visit around the middle-East was timed to embarrass Bush and it cost lives in Baghdad.  She is more dangerous than Al Queda. 
 
Her revelation about greatly leaning on Bill for his knowledge and experience isn't a very good reason to vote for her.  She essentially promises him a job within her hopeful administration - barred by Hatch to make promises to someone to help you win an election is punishable with 3 years incarceration.
 
During the '90's, World Leaders went out of their way to keep Bill out of their way.  In newspapers throughout Europe, Eastern Europe, and down under, the name "Clinton" was synonymous with "joke". 
 
Many times it was a bad joke they referred to.  His invitation to Arafat to join him in our Rose Garden was not well received by middle Easterners, nor Clinton's unwelcome interference in Bosnia. 
 
What is even more disturbing was his inability to understand military retaliatory strategies.  A strong committed military - volunteers - is greatest deterrent to war.  That is if you don't flinch.  Bush didn't.
 
 In his defense, he told Peter Jennings he didn't want his Presidential duties to interfere with his attention to Monica Lewinski - Hillary claimed to be unaware.  He later blamed media for covering his indiscretions.
 
So, it's their fault.  Don't get that old stained carpet ready quite yet.

History is getting ready to repeat itself once again.
 
It'll take a Kennedy to do it.  Ted is getting ready to introduce a bill to effect Military funding in the year 2009.  Sounds just like his brother did knowing it was a non issue before making a bold threat.  Nothing he introduces will matter between now and then, but it gets him face time to sound like a jerk.  Kerry will be right behind; and I mean behind to kiss up.
 
Hillary's whole mission in her eyes is to discredit Bush resolve by telling our adversaries that back channel negotiations and face saving resolutions are not an option without her face in the middle.   Perhaps she should don a uniform and go to Anbar, a lesser Catastrophe than Baghdad.
 
Now, here comes Barack Obama with no experience, no position, and no military service telling us he has no opinion.  Learned that skill at Harvard Law School before sitting in Illinois' legislature.  He will shortly tell us Oprah's plans for his candidacy to beat Hillary.  When Barack said the catastrophe was already happening in response to John McCain foresight, he was not completely accurate. 
 
Yes, Iraq has a sectarian catastrophe, but if our citizens believe that it will remain there, they better look back to December 7, 1941.  Threats we face are not forthcoming if we prevail.  When Europe gets strong in its posturing on their soil, it's only 6 time zones from the East to ground zero and 12 time zones west from Iran to Hollywood - Hawaii and Alaska closer by 2 hours.  Different perspective than that dumb rhetoric!
 
Rhetoric wars begin on Tuesday.  Nothing will be accomplished except media sales and blogging.  Congress cannot override Commander in Chief decisions or even impact on remaining budget years.   They're threats are idol - safe as any non-practicing attorney could wish for.

Subject: Go figar!

Tubsey:
Why did it not surprise me that you prefer argumentative writings.  In most cases they are easier to write because you start with a resolve and then take your premise to that point.  My kind of writing too!  You should go to my website sometime to read my "CoffeeTalks".   You know me well enough to read my stuff that probably makes you think you're talking with me.   My writings sometimes bastardize English to get people to reread and think.
 
What a thought!  Get someone to think.
 
Research papers are fun too.  You get to use other peoples' words to support a finding whether or not it threads to a resolution - lawyers do that all the time.  Rule for them is to circumvent rule of law, distort testimony, and intimidate jury members to believe it is a good decision to ignore facts for emotion.
 
Christmas bird was superb!   Also developed a few challenges for my existing wardrobe - getting back under control as well.  It's a good thing I know how to adjust clothing to fit - my 1960's cast-iron sewing machine works quite well.  Just can't drop it on my feet.
 
Court was postponed at last minute and word is it will be dismissed 'cause lawyers violated 6 sections of Federal law they said justified their case. 
 
Jury duty was just a waiting game because only 12 of their 17 cases were called; so. many of us got paid for the day - $15.  That amount is considered above minimum wage and adequate for jurors who must lose regular job pay to appear.  Yet, our Congress pays themselves $160,000 per year for 7.4 weeks of appearances to spend taxes from our pay.
 
Go figar.
 
Big case is still in default without a judge honorable enough to sign off on it.  Sent it to our Justice Department for FBI confirmation and possible criminal action against Maryland's Attorneys General and Chief Justice.  It will come up in campaign for White House next year; if not resolved locally this year. 
 
AG's son-in-law was awarded Maryland's Governor job by his father-in-law in flagrant voter fraud that because of Chief Justice collusion will never be challenged. 
 
It took me 20+ years to research how they do that.  Yes, I found out.  Media were intimidated by money to not investigate.  Even they reported exit polls showing incumbents winning by more than 15 and 17 percent, but those votes didn't count, they were told by election officials.  
 
Remarkably, by morning totals were same as reported for 34 years (825,000 for Liberals and 685,000 for Private Sector)  regardless of percentage of registered voters showing up of which only about 7 to 10 percent of those had access to paper ballots or machines that didn't transmit data to hosts or main frames.
 
Nineteen States have illegal governments from this form of fraud.  No voter ID, no verification of number of voters, no verification possible of vote counts, and no verification of voter registration. 
 
Worse than Australia's preferential voting.  Not even as honorable as Iraq's.
 
After 1994, President Clinton's re-election, his liberal party awarded a $140 million contract to produce faulty software by an intriguing stream of providers creating a system that could be programmed by election officials similar to slot machines (desired pay -outs), and not as secure as Bank  ATM machines (accurate and secure payouts).
 
Now, there's a research paper, comparing preferential, Democratic, and Iraqi elections.  You might find that purple ink on the middle finger makes all the difference.

"Active", "liberal", and "tolerant" is how media are positioning "Next" generation.  So, responsibility, self worth, consensus of majority, and Christian Family values are being replaced by complacency, inability to resolve beyond electronics, and to accept mediocrity, disregard for others, plus greed for me, but not for you.
 
What a legacy those "Y's" generation hold dear.  It's not our pre-baby boomer "wise" generation that for years kept us legitimate, motivated, and powerful in an emerging global environment.  It's not our Boomers. They created a quality of life for happiness, productivity, and selfless worth with our healthiest aging citizens enjoying more sports, travel and freedom than those who follow.
 
Any clue how this happened?  Here's a clu...

1. We call that - "valor".
    Posted by: "GZarwell" gzarwell@ccconline.net g_zarwell
    Date: Thu Jan 4, 2007 8:25 am ((PST))

et al.:
Reflections of our Christmas celebration and how news took some unusual turns.
 
Two Presidents died around the World; One was hung and took center stage until our 38th President Gerald Ford passed away to gain front page headlines moving Saddam Hussein to page 13.
 
Gerald had a career and history for being in the right place with the right stuff to heal a nation.  Take heart in Congress as they try to diminish that right of passage from, as reporters stated proudly, that of Midwestern ethics and moral values.
 
Other stories reinforced a common thread during this latter week post Christmas celebration as we went into a new year of 007.  James Bond would be proud of my next observation:
 
A former military man - yes military - saved an individual from death through quick decision and action in front of a fast moving subway in NYC.  In a brief second, he looked at his daughters and jumped to engulf a young man who under a seizure fell in harms way.  Attributing his heroism as a residual from his military training where you take care of others in harms way to protect them. 
 
Yes, he learned that all in his first six months of preparatory training many years earlier. 
Not more than hours later, three young Marines, Corporal rank, were killed by insurgents who brutally attacked them during a routine house check.  These three protected each other to death saving lives of many other Marines who in harms way fight to keep insurgents out of our way.  Those insurgents thought they achieved success until they fell from one of our three who took them down one-by-one and later died from gun shot wounds earlier in that situation.  We call that - "valor".
 
These three were very close, defending each other in an act of heroism only a former or current member of our military would understand.
 
Drilling this resolve comes from rigorous training, character building challenges, instantaneous situational analysis, sense of danger, and skills learned to selflessly defend to protect others.
 
This is not taught, but rather chided in Law Schools and institutions of alternative life styles.  This is exactly why most members of Congress cannot understand how Great Americans really are.  They do understand that private sector, middle income, Midwesterners earn much money through hard work to provide manufacturing, food stuffs, and moral fortitude to know when fleecing is fleecing.
 
Reread American First at this point.
 
Do you know how that becomes relevant?  Take a look at pay scales between those with moral values, work ethic, patriotism, and family versus those who claim to be worth much more based upon bank accounts, percentages, and a right to take as much as they can because they can.
 
As Congress goes to vote in their first 100 hours for those programs supporting middle income taxpayers, you will see very small increases until they attach a "bill" (amendments costing us more) for big increases in their pay and those of other public sector empty suits. 
 
They have a warped sense of charity - taketh and giveth to someone who waits for it.
 
What will be missing is lowering Congressional: pay, spending, and benefits to match those available to 97 percent of middle income employees paid for from their earnings resulting from profits - yes - profits from sales of goods or services to those not so talented.
 
Congress wants everyone, workers and non-workers, to have their benefits and hold down profits.  They want parity for all Americans - but that 1.2 percent paying our bills doesn't quite see it that way.  Bringing parity down brings costs down, prices down, takes a few zeros out of annual earnings.  Perhaps a dollar could be worth a dollar again.
 
Congressional resolution is to bring parity up - bankrupt small business, make people dependent upon government - that old secular society not working in Europe anymore as Soviet experience proved after 70 years of experimentation.
 
Does it take a Harvard Economics graduate to understand P&L?  No, they don't teach that!  You have to start a business to learn that if cost of help exceeds cost of market, you have no profit, thus no taxes owed.  So, then, where does Congress get paid for their time? Their wisdom?  - Their lobbyist sellouts?  If private sector doesn't make money....
 
Fleecing will be predominant this week eliminating tax breaks that create more jobs, allowing celebrities to funnel their monies to charities and nations needing an uplift into this 21st Century.  These are people to people responsibilities, not Capitol Hill's.
 
There is absolutely no reason for Congress to get a piece of it. Absolutely not!
 
I noted very cautiously how media and members of Congress jealously scrutinized Home Depot's CEO retirement package - "$210 Million to fail," they said.  Reason for failure was probably operating costs, slow sales seasons, and mandated healthcare and benefit packages took more of profit than anticipated; and a Board of Executives thinking their time for balloons will come.
 
Executive pay may be obscene, excessive and to many of us unearned.
 
When Lee Iacocca left Ford Motor Company to a position at Chrysler, he negotiated an earnings package for success.  First year's salary was $1.  And, Yes what he did for Chrysler earned him a great bonus and stock options.  He earned that through supporting his workers with new incentives, innovation, and responsible management.
 
I got one of his bail-out cars, number 165 of 200 prototypes 419,687 miles now.  It set new standards in automotive manufacturing.  Back then I knew I'd get into politics and always stuck with my American made cars. 
 
All my friends keep encouraging me to get a Mercedes.  I heard this for more than 30 years.  Then a miracle happened.  My Lebaron became a Mercedes fulfilling their dreams that I would have a Mercedes.
 
See, it's all about patience, resolve, and values, and understanding that life is short, full of challenges, responsibility, and selfless service to each other.
 
They don't teach that in Law School, but that resounds through our Nation's Capitol much louder as those "Midwestern values of integrity, humility, and morality" as taught to many of us on Sunday morning until we went to Basic Training to grow up and learn how fragile we were without armor, weapons, and individual combat skills, but how strong our will and physical form could be. It takes both - faith and understanding one's own being.
