Government - October 2006

[Selected]: All categories Politics & Government Government

The U.S. is supposedly a democracy but yet we have always been ruled by corrupt political families ( the Roosevelts, Bushes, Kennedys, Clintons etc.) much like an heir to the throne in a monarchy. Less than 1/2 the people in the U.S. vote and of those who do know very little about the candidates they are voting for and often make their choice because of their stance on one issue. Ex: He is against abortion so I'll vote for the other guy. The other guy (or girl) may be the most corrupt, immoral, person to run for congress but the voter will still vote for him not knowing any better. Another example, a voter may vote against their governor because a certain member of their party likes to flirt w/ male pages. Even though they have nothing to do w/ the House of Rep and could be 3k miles away from it (s)he could lose the election. If its not one issue they base their decision on, than its the borderline slanderous ads financed by the politcal parties. So I ask you, is democracy overrated?

USPS New Stamp

http://img.inkfrog.com/pix/rdd5403/untitled.jpg

How ironic is this?
They don't even believe in Christ, yet they're getting their own Christmas stamp.

To use this stamp would be a slap in the face to
all those AMERICANS who died at the hands of
those whom this stamp honors.

REMEMBER the MUSLIM bombing of PanAm Flight 103.

REMEMBER the MUSLIM bombing of the World Trade Center in 1993.

REMEMBER the MUSLIM bombing of the Marine barracks in Lebanon.

REMEMBER the MUSLIM bombing of the military barracks in Saudi Arabia.

REMEMBER the MUSLIM bombing of the American Embassies in Africa.

REMEMBER the MUSLIM bombing of the USS COLE.

REMEMBER the MUSLIM attack on 9/11/2001.

REMEMBER all the AMERICAN lives that were lost in those vicious MUSLIM attacks!

Now the United States Postal Service REMEMBERS and HONORS the EID MUSLIM holiday season with a commemorative first class holiday postage stamp.
