When looking up Congressional salaries, and US Government salaries as well as offices I noticed these positions.

Executive Assistant
Staff Assistant
Special Assistant
Personal Aide

I thought these were all pretty much the same, but apparently their different or they would not be listed as such. What is the formal difference and normal description of duties for each of these? I mean surely there is a difference and specific duties or they would not be standard salaried titles.

Also I noticed the Vice-President has a Director of Correspondence, and two Deputy Directors of Correspondence. Is that really necessary, what all does Correspondence cover?

Are we conservatives so DISGUSTED by the unremarkable GOPers running for the Republican nominatiion that we are attempting to stimulate and energize our party by electing Hillary?



~Divided and discouraged by a GOP field they view as lackluster, they've concluded that the best way to energize party activists, hold the White House and, possibly, return to power on Capitol Hill, is to help Clinton secure the Democratic nod and become her party's most dominant voice. ~

Given the fact that this administration has not been up front with the people and has continued efforts to keep the war going, how do you feel about the White House doing a cover-up or putting a rosy look on the war?

Yesterday I asked a question about why democrats are not for tax credits for healthcare. I got very few educated answers and a lot of feel good answers.

According to the US Health and Human Services Medicaid is available only to people with limited income. You must meet certain requirements in order to be eligible for Medicaid. Medicaid does not pay money to you; instead, it sends payments directly to your health care providers.

Medicare is a health insurance program administered by the United States government, covering people who are either age 65 and over, or who meet other special criteria.

So right now we have government two programs in place to help 1) the lower income and 2) help the retired or elderly.

Can someone give me a rational reason why we should or the owner of a business should not be able to deduct health insurance cost off their taxes?

There was a day when labor unions were needed, however, all the necessay laws have been changed and their original purpose is extinct, yet labor unions won't go away.

There were horrific time, when civil rights laws were needed to protect minorities, however all the necessary laws were changed long ago, yet thing like affirmative action, won't go away.

If liberals followed Dr King's message & God's message, to love one another, heal wounds, bring people together and make racism an attocity of the past, instead of practicing the business of "getting even" we could have racial harmony.

If liberals proclaim they really want to end racism, why do they pervert the message of Dr King and support race baiters, reverse racism and constantly regurgitate sins from long ago, to keep alive the perception that civil rights laws have yet to be corrected, when we all know they have been, long ago.

Are liberals in the business of getting even? Do liberals really oppose racial harmony?

Why should we rely on private firms who like to cut corners for profit to protect the public interest? Private and municipal airports relied on private security firms and they let us down, why expect anything different from private security firms guarding nuclear power plants? These last two Q's are stmts in the form of rhetorical questions intended to contextualize the Q in the Q-box. They are two reasons why I ask my Q. Do we have to wait for another catastrophe by terror attack at one of our nuclear power plants for Chertoff's Homeland Security Department to take action?

I suspect that my neighbor has become possessed by Liberalism and I wonder if there is any way to save her, and others so possessed, from this satanic philosophy before they loses their souls.

I first suspected that she was possessed by Liberalism when she began speaking highly of a corrupt and secretive international body known as the UN.

I tried to use logic to combat Liberalisms attempt to gain control over her mind and body, but have thus far failed.

Now it appears as though Liberalism has seemingly gained complete control over her.

- When presented with the sign of the Cross, she begins hissing wildly and babbling about something called “evolution” while claiming that she is a monkey.

- She has now begun expressing a desire to sacrifice children in a ceremony she calls “abortions”.

I know the Jews resent all the murders that happen to their people.
The Moslems hate all their killers and persecutors,and also the tendency to take their land and give it to Israeli's.
Can they ever live peacefully together?

THIS PROVES IT!


A big earthquake with the strength of 8.1 on the Richter scale hits
Mexico.

Two million Mexicans have died and over a million are injured. The
country is totally ruined and the government doesn't know where to
start with asking for help to rebuild. The rest of the world is in
shock.

Canada is sending troopers to help the Mexican army control the
riots.

Saudi Arabia is sending oil.

Other Latin American countries are sending supplies.

The European community (except France) is sending food and money.

The United States, not to be outdone, is sending two million Mexicans
to replace the dead ones.

God bless America!!!
