What happened to innocent until proven guilty ?
Credit card companies Visa and MasterCard and the Internet payment firm PayPal have blocked donations to WikiLeaks, prompting Assange to label them "instruments of US foreign policy."
The Bank of America, the largest US bank, has also halted all transactions to WikiLeaks.
Sarah Palin is already a distraction.... I like Fox News but when Sarah is on I turn to another channel. Anyone that would quit being govenor of Alaska to go around the country on speaking tours should not be considered for president because we don't need a quiter. There is something wrong with the Republican Party when they could not find a person who could beat Senator Reid or Senator Boxer. I hope that Palin does not run because I would not be able to vote for her. I think President Bush and Sarah Palin are two of the biggest reasons that Obama is in the White House and the conservatives and TEA party people need to wake up and find a person that will represent all of us and not be someone that will go around the country waving the flag while dividing the country. Obama is praying that he will have Palin to run against ... .... as she is probably one of his best chances he has of being re elected .
Answer to El_Tigre's question. The Military Industrial Complex of the World is the reason crazies like Hitler, Mao Ahmadinejad and Obama run countries. Many businesses are in the war business and they are getting rich building bombs, planes, guns, ammunition, boats, tanks, submarines and missles. The Military Industrial Complex and their lobbyists want wars and control your elected representatives and that is why there is one war after another. Follow the money.
What is everyone mad at Jimmy about ? Didn't you like that 17% interest on savings ?
The United States' Travel Ass. stated that U.S. welcomed 2.4 million fewer overseas visitors last year than in 2000. And it also stated that this cost an estimated $509 billion in spending. If you divide 509 billion dollars by 2.4 million visitors that would mean that the average spent by these 2.4 million visitors was $ 212,083.34 ... Doesn't anyone in Washington know how to balance a check book or have any idea what a billion dollars is ? Check the math maybe my adding machine is broken.
We the People can change. Yes we can! Yes we can! Yes we will !
I must agree with some of the comments about the Saudis.... Weren't most, if not all, of the 911 terrorists from Saudi Arabia. President Obama is blaming President Bush for everything and it makes me hesitant to bring up the fact that President Bush or someone in his administration allowed many of Saudi Arabia's royal family and other Saudis to fly home while after 911 while all other aircraft were grounded and this action was very suspicious as the Bush family had strong financial ties with the Saudi Arabia's ruling class or royalty.
If President Obama's administration is responsible for placing Saudi Arabia on a list of 14 countries whose nationals face more rigorous security inspection when travelling to the United States it would be one thing that he has done right in the last year.
Things we don't need....
The "Organizing for America" (OFA), formerly Obama For America, should not be allowed in our schools. We do not need conservatives, liberals, Republicans, Democrats, Socialists or any other group indoctrinating school children into thinking that there is only one way to do things. Children need to learn to decide things for themselves. Given the proper education they will hopefully come to the proper conclusions . That is not to say that young people should not be taught the value of money and that borrowing or not living within a budget destroys future opportunities and limits personal choices.
This is exactly how I feel, sure we are stronger, more free and in total control, thanks!
Nancy Pelosi....
In mid 2008, when Obama was still running for office, I asked a shop owner in Lake Elsinore, CA, "Why would anyone in their right mind want to be President now ?". If the last year is any answer to that question the answer is that President Obama lives on self praise .... He is an egotists that tells the public what he thinks they want to hear while knowing that it is a lie. He is following the same road that President Bush led the United States down for the last eight years and at every bad turn he blames President Bush and blaiming President Bush shifts the blame from the real problem which is a Congress whose members, Republicans and Democrats, are busy selling their votes to lobbyists and have no time to take care of the people who elected them to office. No time to take care of the jobs and factories which they exported to foreign soil. No time to take care of the greed of bankers and Wall Street. No time to take care of illegal immigrants, No time to read the bills before voting on them. But enough time to fly all around the world and acting like Kings and Queens all the time.
