and all the king's horses and all the king's men...

And just like that, with the help of 10 turncoats (8 who voted for and 2 who didn't bother showing up to vote)another bill that will change the country as you know it has passed the House of Representatives. EVEN GREENPEACE was AGAINST this bill! While it has a slim chance of passing the Senate, it could have been stopped yesterday. For god-sakes, another bill they didn't even read!

Thanks MM for the updates and keeping the USA informed

please everyone, inform yourselves and get good information and research what is happening... my personal views are it will take two or three generations to fix things and return some type of freedom back to the USA, I hope I'm wrong and from time to time I see positive signs, but with the debt we are in now, its hard to stay optimistic and I wonder just how it will and who will put it back-together-again

I'll blog more on the debt and how we will be able to pay it back in the next few days and weeks.

A haiku for you...
lost in the tall grass
looking, watching for a time
a storm cloud above

if we can keep it!

Dear Friends,

this week will be a historic week for the direction and future of our country, please use books, YouTube, tweeter and blogs to stay informed about what is happening right now... you can look back and educate yourself on how we got here, but understanding where we are right now is o so important, because the decisions that are being made here in the present will not only change your life as you've known it, but it will change the next two generations so much I can only begin to explain in this forum.

soymilk review

Hi all,

got a new product review for you, publix"green wise market" brand soy milk... to sum up quickly... its great!, as good if not better than silk and about $.30 cheaper regular price... and with the weekly sales publix is known for, it can be up to $.70 less or more than competition. I get the "light" to watch the sugar amount, but I've tried regular as well and again, its great and I highly recommend it. Three kinds are available, regular, chocolate, vanilla and light versions of the chocolate and vanilla available as well and pictured above.

sad news from SouKor regarding Roh

Hi all,

Sad news today from the ROK... he was a brave man that did alot of good, the possible bad should not let people forget the good, and the bad is just that, a possible and not proven!

I do hope that this news stops any UN-truths and slander that has attacked his name and his family for these past few years. Having been slandered by lies myself, I do not believe "Dante's" ideas will haunt him in the end, but who knows.
