| | Affairs of State | | 2008-08-10 22:02:06 | | A Commentary from the Plaid Union Party Presidential Nominee Don LewisNow that I am the leading northern Idaho Candidate for the Presidency, it is incumbent upon me to speak out about the failings of other national leaders. (I don't know if its required per se, but it beats having to define my positions.)So today, despite the ravages of the cold from hell and a lung-coating crust of effluence that makes my breathing sound like a bong in need of a water change, I find it necessary to bring up the shameful behavior of John Edwards.As you are all no doubt aware, John Edwards, the ex-Senator from North Carolina has recently admitted to an extra-marital affair with Rielle Hunter.Putting aside for the moment the damage done to his family, it is of even greater importance to recognize his failings with regards to the larger picture of American Security and our standing on the World stage:If this was an isolated incident, it would be bad enough. But it isn't. Time and again we are forced to a | | By: It\'s a Funny Thing... | | |

| | "Infiltrados 2" Martin Scorsese lleva al limite el remake de Infernal Affairs. | | 2008-06-30 20:00:00 | |
Ya se podía prever que "Infiltrados" tendría segunda parte, puesto que el film es el remake de "Infernal Affairs" rodada en el 2002 y consta de dos películas más rodadas en el 2003.
Martín Scorsese hará de la exitosa película una trilogía si esta segunda parte resulta tener un éxito semejante a la primera. Pero por ahora "Infiltrados 2" esta asegurada, y se trata de una precuela que contará los hechos anteriores al primer film para descubrirnos como empezó todo y cuáles fueron los acontecimientos que hicieron que ambos personajes acabarán en los diferentes bandos de la ley.
Probablemente para la precuela volverá el reparto del film original: Leonardo DiCaprio, Matt Damon, Jack Nicholson, Mark Wahlberg y Martín Sheen, junto a la muy probable participación de Robert De Niro, quien ya tenia que haber salido en la primera entrega pero estaba ocupado con "El Buen Pastor", y por fin regresará junto a Scorsese.

| | News: Court rules Italian Carabinieri can not have affairs | | 2008-06-16 15:00:04 | | Italy's Carabinieri policemen can't have extramarital affairs because they besmirch the honour of the corps, Italy's highest appeals court ruled today.Upholding a four-month jail term for a Carabiniere who threatened a superior officer after being told to break off a relationship, the Cassation Court said the officer's order was "legitimate".It said Carabinieri, like other members of the Italian military, were duty bound to "show in all circumstances exemplary conduct which safeguards the prestige of the armed forces".

| | Sad state of affairs | | 2008-06-03 02:34:55 | | BBC NEWS | Americas | Medical charity helping US poorSome 60% of RAM's work is now carried out in the United States.On a wet, spring weekend he lands his vintage World War II aircraft - once used to drop American troops on D-Day - in Lafayette, Tennessee.He bought the plane to parachute medics into the jungle.Today he is unloading dentists' chairs from the plane into a pickup truck.It bothers me to read this kind of story. It makes me ashamed to be an American. I think it's awful that a charity set up to help the third world spends most of it's time on US soil helping Americans. What's worse is that so many Americans still don't want to fix the problem.The issue of making health care available to everyone shouldn't be controversial. It shouldn't even be debatable. The only debate should be how and how quickly. Instead we're wrapped up in illogical fears of universal health care.Can someone please explain why universal health care would be so awful.

I’ve been doing a little snooping and discovered that immigration isn’t even much of an issue in Cochise County. In fact, I found people were probably less interested in it as a whole than they are in Lincoln County, where a few of my GOP colleagues are a little riled up about things. The answer I’m getting here from people I talk to is, “I don’t even think about it”.

| | | Post-South Carolina State of Affairs (R) | | 2008-01-19 23:25:00 | | South Carolina and Nevada have spoken, and the results have finally produced several distinct tiers of Republican candidates: John McCain and Mitt Romney in the top tier, Mike Huckabee and Rudy Giuliani in the second tier, and Fred Thompson and Ron Paul in the third tier. Because of the sheer chaos that characterizes the Republican race, Republican voters and party operatives are anxiously waiting for signs that someone is breaking out of the pack, as they are not sure who they should rally around. Things might still be muddled right now, but the race is no longer as turbid as it once was.John McCain's South Carolina victory is particularly sweet for him, especially after the way he was vilified in the 2000 primary. Of course, nasty kneecap politics reemerged this time around too, but that McCain was able to survive should serve as a testament to his overall strength and appeal. This victory caps McCain's improbable political comeback and has established him as the Republican fron | | By: The 7-10 | | |
| | Post-Michigan State of Affairs (R) | | 2008-01-16 14:24:00 | | The results are in and Mitt Romney is the clear winner of the Michigan Republican primary. Beating rival John McCain by a healthy 9 points, Romney finally won a "gold medal" (people often ignore Wyoming). Independent and Democratic voters simply didn't turn out for McCain in large enough numbers this time. People are often quick to minimize Romney's victory by reminding everyone that Romney was born there and that his father was a popular state governor. McCain referred to Romney at least twice as a "native son" in his concession speech. These are convenient excuses, but I think the main reason why Romney won is because he paid the most attention the the economy, which was certainly weighing heavily on the minds of Michigan voters.However, Romney's victory did not wound McCain as much as it wounded Mike Huckabee, who finished a distant third. Huckabee has now placed first once and third twice. Thus, the onus is now on Huckabee to win South Carolina. Given the religious conservative bent of the state, Huckabee should be able to eke out a victory there. If he fails to do so, he will be hard pressed to win elsewhere. He could easily rationalize not winning in New Hampshire and Michigan because they are moderate Northern states with a smaller Christian conservative base. That excuse won't fly in South Carolina, however.An ominous sign for Huckabee is that Michigan's evangelicals did not flock to him the way they did in Iowa. This may illustrate the problem Huckabee has with appealing beyond his religious conservative base. Consider these remarks from a campaign event shortly before the primary:"[Some of my opponents] do not want to change the Constitution, but I believe it's a lot easier to change the Constitution than it would be to change the word of the living God, and that's what we need to do is to amend the Constitution so it's in God's standards rather than try to change God's standards."(You can view the YouTube clip of this here.)Did thes | | By: The 7-10 | | |

| | Debt Consolidation Personal Loans: Recover your Financial Affairs | | 2007-12-13 03:53:41 | | Handling several debts at a time is a Herculean task and more often than not we fall pray to the pressure. This is a vicious circle .Imagine someone proving you amount to clear all the mess in a single repayment. Wouldn’t that be fine? Seems unbelievable to you? Well debt consolidation personal loans exactly do this. These are personal loans which help in stacking all the existing debts and repaying them. This way you are eased off the pressure to handle multiple debts and instead focus all your energy towards a single debt. Secured forms are the most readily available wherein a collateral is pledged against the loans amount. However such loans are there in the offering in unsecured form as well but you will have to toil to search a suitable one. A single installment featured with these loans ensures that you save a substantial amount which you have paid as high interest and fines. And you can repay a single installment pretty easily thus improving your credit ratings. Not only these, a debt consolidation protects you from answering and explaining to various lenders which can sometimes be an irritating affair to deal with. You can avail an amount starting from £5000 and stretching up to £75000 and interest rate are reasonably low. Collateral further helps in lowering the rate. Repayment tenure lies between 5 to 25 years which is sufficiently long for you to repay the entire amount conveniently. You should practice sincerity with repayments as a casual approach may result in the forfeiture of the same. You should be regularly employed and above 18 years to be eligible to grab these loans. A salary slip, bank account etc helps reflecting your repaying potential and a nice one always helps in finding favours among lenders. These loans are disbursed to persons suffering the pangs of bad credit record albeit a high rate is charged; this is done as a confidence building measure. You can avail debt consolidation easily either through physical or online | | By: Easy Debt Consolidations Loans UK | | |
| | Current State of Affairs (D) | | 2007-11-25 09:47:00 | | The 7-10 has returned after a long, restful, festive (and stomach-bursting) Thanksgiving.Last week was a particularly slow one for political news, but there were a few good stories worth commenting on. The Scott McClellan story shined a whole new light on the Valerie Plame saga, for example, but I will write about that at a later date.But for now, I want to talk about last week's ABC News/Washington Post poll that showed Barack Obama ahead of Hillary Clinton in Iowa. Obama polled at 30%, Clinton polled at 26%, and Edwards polled at 22%. This was the first time in about two months that Obama has polled higher than Clinton in Iowa.Why is this important? For starters, positioning is never as important as momentum. Hillary Clinton had been trouncing her opponents in almost every poll this year (especially after Edwards began to fade in Iowa). However, it doesn't really mean much to win in September if you trend downward in December. Voters want to support candidates who have momen | | By: The 7-10 | | |

| | The State of Affairs | | 2007-07-15 13:54:00 | | First of all let me apologize for the lack of updates. It has been a crazy week and I'm a little out of gas.I was fully prepared to relax and pick it up tomorrow but I had a great conversation with an old friend yesteday and I wanted to touch on it.I hate the word Libertarian. I'm not a Libertarian, I'm a Republican. I'm a founding father's Republican. Most conservatives really are.The problem that we have here is that we need to mobilize on it. Let's stop being segmented and looking for an alternative, let's rebuild OUR party. Instead of allowing moderates or neo-conservatives to represent us, why don't we start electing true Republicans that share our beliefs? Leaving the party to create a new one doesn't make a difference, it just muddies the water even further. We need to work together and clean house in the way we want, electing the representatives we want.The only way to fix the state of the Republican party is to assemble and use due diligence. Not seperate. If we want to save the Republican party and bring it backs to its roots, now is a crucial time to start. | | By: The Dissident Awakens | | |
