Government - August 2007

I really don't like dealing with the local government employees. I happen to think the laziest, fattest and least intelligent of the population find themselves working for the government. Common sense does not apply with them; only an easy paycheck and a lots of paid time off. Thats basically it for them.

If anyone should pay off my fines, it should be my employer who is too damn cheap to give me a underground parking spot free of charge. I almost feel I should put the parking bill on my boss's desk. Its his fault if he wants me to come to work on time, and if I have to park illegally, then how else am I supposed to arrive on a timely basis?

What if I just never pay these ridiculous fines? The government already screws me out of enough money. If they want *more* of my money, at least they can scrape off all the homeless scum off the streets, so my walk to work is a bit more aesthetically pleasing.

Anyone know what happens if I never pay?

Should he go to jail? Also shouldn't the State of Virginia have charged him instead of the government? We are the United States of America. State is another word for country we are just united. If you read the constitution I believe there is nothing in there about dogfighting. Dogs may be living things but so are cows and pigs. Well, what do you think?

Well, we're not really. It's goverment that's being soft on the bloody immigranents. They let in to our country, they don't work, they live off the state and the only thing they do is cause a lot of... TROUBLE!!!! I hope the new prime minister gets them out as soon as possible. We Brits are getting sick of it!

Where does the money come from? Do the people of their nations just pore in their taxes so they take expensive vacations and buy expensive clothing? For instance, the sultan of Brunei has a fortune of $20 billion (according to VH1, which brags about others and not themselves). Brunei's neighboring countries are mostly third world countries, yet his children have an enormous palace with a private jet per person. What justification is their for this imbalance of economic power?

does that mean we are over taxed? Why don't we get a say in how that money is spent and I don't think it should just be plopped into paying down the deficit. We need money pumped into education and health care etc. The position for who should oversee how this money is spent is vacant too...something wrong with this picture don't you think?

It seems that Hillary doesn't care about the loss of life and property when it comes to terrorism, only how much it will cause her to slip in the polls. I'm starting to think she is not the right type of person for president. Agree?

Democrats really want to control you - not let you control your own future. For many people the rate of return on Social Security is only slightly over 1%: http://www.heritage.org/Research/SocialSecurity/CDA98-01.cfm Bush had the right idea.

I'm reading an article about HIPAA laws for an assignment at school, and this article states that the Bush Administration organized the group that would eventually create HIPAA. I thought that Pres. Clinton was Pres. in the 1990's. Would this article be referring to Bush Sr.?

1) New York City has 11 letters

2) Afghanistan has 11 letters.

3) Ramsin Yuseb (The terrorist who threatened to destroy the Twin
Towers in 1993) has 11 letters.

4) George W Bush has 11 letters.

This could be a mere coincidence, but this gets more interesting:

1) New York is the 11th state.

2) The first plane crashing against the Twin Towers was flight number 11.

3) Flight 11 was carrying 92 passengers. 9 + 2 = 11

4) Flight 77 which also hit Twin Towers, was carrying 65 passengers.
6+5 = 11

5) The tragedy was on September 11, or 9/11 as it is now known. 9 + 1+ 1 = 11

6) The date is equal to the US emergency services telephone number
911. 9 + 1 + 1 = 11.

Sheer coincidence...?!? Read on and make up your own mind:

1) The total number of victims inside all the hi-jacked planes was
254. 2 + 5 + 4 = 11.

2) September 11 is day number 254 of the calendar year. Again 2 + 5 + 4
= 11.

3) The Madrid bombing took place on 3/11/2004. 3 + 1 + 1 + 2 + 4 = 11.

4) The tragedy of Madrid happened 911 days after the Twin Towers
incident.

Now this is where things get totally eerie:

The most recognised symbol for the US, after the Stars & Stripes, is the Eagle. The following verse is taken from the Qu'ran, the Islamic holy book:

"For it is written that a son of Arabia would awaken a fearsome Eagle.
The wrath of the Eagle would be felt throughout the lands of Allah and lo,
while some of the people trembled in despair still more rejoiced: for
the wrath of the Eagle cleansed the lands of Allah and there was
peace."

That verse is number 9.11 of the Quran.

uncovinced about all of this STILL?!? Try this and see how you feel afterwards, it made my hair stand on end:

Open Microsoft Word and do the following:

1. Type in capitals Q33 NY. This is the flight number of the first
plane to hit one of the Twin Towers.

2. Highlight the Q33 NY.

3. Change the font size to 48.

4. Change the actual font to the WINGDINGS 1, WINGDINGS 1 is a symbol key that replaces letters with well known sybols RANDOMLY. WINGDINGS 1 was devised well before 9/11!

What do you think now?!?

How about if we ask that way - then we can skip all the evacuation and ignoring offers of help excuses.

That's the conclusion of a scientist who was on the scene at the time as disclosed by BBC reporter Greg Palast:

Greg Palast: Hurricane George: How the White House Drowned New Orleans

[Thursday, August 23] It's been two years. And America's media is about to have another tear-gasm over New Orleans. Maybe Anderson Cooper will weep again. The big networks will float into the moldering corpse of the city and give you uplifting stories about rebuilding and hope.

Now, let's cut through the crybaby crap. Here's what happened two years ago -- and what's happening now. This is what an inside source told me. And it makes me sick:

"By midnight on Monday, the White House knew. Monday night I was at the state Emergency Operations Center and nobody was aware that the levees had breeched. Nobody."

The charge is devastating: That, on August 29, 2005, the White House withheld from the state police the information that New Orleans was about to flood.

I've been sitting back, reading and watching news since the war begun. And the one thing I can't seem to figure out is what Bush hopes to gain from this useless war.

Aside from an increase in military deaths, suicide, and the gain of universal hatred.

And the answer 'To spread Democracy!" won't work. Thats a load, and almost everyone knows it. You can't spread Democracy under a wannabe dictator. Almost an oxymoron.

I'm sure the ones who want to believe this are the Bush wads who still think this man is on the right track.

And before you try and insult me, sorry. I'm not a democrat, and certainly not a republican. I've lost faith in this wonderful country of ours to pick a side. And any insult you toss at me, I've heard before. So, feel free to say what you want.

So, what do you guys think?
