-We need to make medical care in the USA affordable to everybody.
-We will withdraw from Iraq within 16-month timetable, send 60% of US troops home, remaining 40% will be redeployed to Afghanistan.
-We will NOT interfere with NAFTA, but we WILL interfere with WTO standards! We will work closely with Canada to improve fair trade relations for laborers in North America.
When jobs are lost in Ohio and Michigan, these jobs are being replaced by China and India cheap laborers. Ontario, Quebec, and Manitoba workers are battling the same struggle as US workers! These are our twin siblings, not our competition, we should be in this together! NAFTA is not the enemy, WTO is!
-We will buy oil from the Tar Sands in Canada and mainly cut oil dependence on Middle East oil, considering Canadian oil production as a lucky deal to hold the US off while we explore alternative energies.
-As USA president, I will absolutely NOT ignore Canada nor shall I ignore Mexico. We will make at least 3 or more presidential trips to Ottawa every year.
-On all other issues, we will go with Obama’s current platform.

This is amazing…!
June 11 (ANI): An unusual kind of grass at the Xishuangbanna Tropical Botanical Garden (XTBG) in China, which dances to musical tunes and songs, has become a tourist attraction.
People stand around and sing to troves of these grasses. The uniqueness of the grass was observed when some scientists, while out on field trips, relaxed in the wood and sang for self-enjoyment.
They found the blades of the grass opening or closing at their sounds, reports the China Daily.
The dancing grass has made locals recall the story of a Dai girl named Duoyi who loved to dance.
According to the tale, the local brute got wind of it and forced her to dance for him every day. She resisted and jumped into the river. Upon her tomb began to grow gobs of grass that danced gracefully, just as she had done when alive.
However, scientists say that the real reason is the decibel level, which should be between 35 and 65.
They say that sunshine can also start it to boogie. (ANI)

Okay so I asked for people’s opinion on my reasoning for why gas is SOO HIGHH. You may not agree with it but how does this violate the rules it’s suspicious don’t you think?
Okay here is the problem.
1. A lot of people have no room to complain they drive really BIG TRUCKS and SUV’S for no reason except to try and impress their neighbor and drive to Wal-Mart for goodies-you should get mad at them.
2. The oil companies may be charging more BUT that does not mean that most the gas problem is caused by them-farmers right now are making a fortune selling wheat does that mean they are price gouging? NO! Oil companies are making record profits becasue there is LESS SUPPLY and MORE DEMAND=more profits now to the reasons it is expensive.
3. Speculators, investors, traders-on Wall-Street play the little commodities game like a fiddle. You can buy FUTURES contracts on oil and they are 1,000 barrels per contract. As you can see Rich people are buying the oil FIRST and then when the demand gets higher i.e. rich people are hording it, they turn around and sell it to you and I later—the poor people. Thank you WAL-STREET.
4. Environmental nuts who think that OIL COMPANIES and oil exploration companies shouldn’t be drilling for oil. These are the crazy tree huggers that you see dangling off bridges; according to them the U.S. economy should shut down, and really we shouldn’t be driving at all, or using electricity, or breathing…or really we shouldn’t even be alive.
5. The falling value of the U.S. dollar caused by Excess money printing to fund the War in IRAQ by the great George Bush whom we should all stand in awe at! What a great job he has done.
6. OPEC only pumps oil to 50% of their capacity. Yes this is true MIND YOU that is still plenty of oil for all of us if they pumped it faster all the Rich people on wal-street would just buy more of it. However if they pumped a little faster YES it would help to a small limited degree but MOST of our oil comes from Canada and the U.S. Anyway–85%.
7. China is using gas-more gas usage=less supply and more demand=price is going up.
8. The government puts a HUGE tax on gas Like about a dollar of what you pay goes right into funding the war and other stuff the government does (crazy politics)!!!
9. Some gas station just like to GOUGE you a bit. While it is true that most the gas stations really ARE NOT making all that much off gas some still overcharge. Be aware however that MOST gas station do not do this they only make like 20 cents a gallon or so i.e. they charge just above the MARKET price that the U.S.A. is getting.
10. Are these enough reasons? Are you at all surprised that it is going up?
What we can do about it you might be asking? Well first you can try to LIMIT the size or your car and fight for bills being passed that regulate large ridiculous monster trucks around town. THIS WOULD REALLY HELP!!! Second you could try to vote for a president like Ron Paul and Hope the elections aren’t rigged. Lastly you could plan your trips out betting and shop at places nearby and NOT drive across town to go to Wal-Mart to save a whole 2 bucks on a bunch of groceries NOTE: people do that . It’s gunna get worse.
So lets review why it’s high in case your wonder later on.
–War In IRAQ and falling U.S. dollar (too much printing)
–Trading and investing on Wall-Street (some RICH GOONS PLAYING THE MARKET LIKE A FIDDLE AND HORDING OIL TO SELL IT TO ME LATER FOR A HIGHER PRICE)
–Environmental CRAZIES (no oil drilling or exploration)
–Big Taxes (The Gov is the biggest business of all time)
–China (They live driving now too)
–OPEC (why pump more when it’s a limited resource and we can charge more later–don’t pump fast)
–Gas Stations being Greedy (Hey Some are)
At anytime you can ponder and review these in your head lol. I hope this helps and good luck.
Peace

Everything that you do will be 100% free for you and anyone who comes along. You can do anything you ever wanted or dreamed of. Go to the moon, skydive, etc. So what would you do?
As for myself I would go on a cross-country road trip. I would visit old places I used to live and see all my family members. I would then travel to Italy, Cancun, Hawaii, China, France, and the U.K. After that I would settle down and play video games until I was done for.

Dear Mr. Ex President Clinton:
I recently saw a bumper sticker that said, “Thank me, I voted for
Clinton-Gore.” So, I sat down and reflected on that, and I am sending my
“Thank you” for what you have done, specifically:
1. Thank you for introducing us to Jennifer Flowers, Paula Jones, Monica
Lewinsky, Dolly Kyle Browning, Kathleen Willey, and Juanita Broderick. Did I
leave anyone out?
2. Thank you for teaching my 8 year old about oral sex. I had really planned
to wait until they were older to discuss it with them, but now they know more
about it than I did as a senior in college.
3. Thank you for showing us that sexual harassment in the work place
(especially the White House) and on the job is OK, and all you have to know
is what the meaning of “is” is. It really is great to know that certain
sexual acts are not sex, and one person may have sex while the other one
involved does NOT have sex.
4. Thank you for reintroducing the concept of impeachment to a new generation
and demonstrating that the ridiculous plot of the movie “Wag the Dog” could
be plausible after all.
5. Thanks for making Jimmy Carter look competent, Gerald Ford look graceful,
Richard Nixon look honest, Lyndon Johnson look truthful, and John Kennedy
look moral.
6. Thank you for the 73 House and Senate witnesses who have pled the 5th
Amendment and 17 witnesses who have fled the country to avoid testifying
about Democratic campaign fund raising.
7. Thank you, for the 19 charges, 8 convictions, and 4 imprisonments from the
Whitewater “mess” and the 55 criminal charges and 32 criminal convictions (so
far) in the other “Clinton” scandals.
8. Thanks also for reducing our military by half, “gutting” much of our
foreign policy, and flying all over the world on “vacations” carefully
disguised as necessary trips.
9. Thank you, also, for “finding” millions of dollars— I really didn’t need
it in the first place,
and I can’t think of a more well deserving group of recipients for my
hard-earned dollars than jet fuel for all of your globe-trotting. I
understand you, the family and your cronies have logged in more time aboard
Air Force One than any other administration.
10. Now that you’ve left the White House, thanks for the 140 pardons of
convicted felons and indicted felons-in-exile. We will love to have them
rejoin society.
11. Thanks also for removing the White House silverware. I’m sure that Laura
Bush didn’t! like the pattern anyway. Also, enjoy the housewarming gifts
you’ve received from your “friends.”
12. Thanks to you and your staff in the West Wing of the White House for
vandalizing and destroying government property on the way out. I also
appreciate removing all of that excess weight (China, silverware, linen,
towels, ash trays, soap, pens, magnetic compass, flight manuals, etc.) out of
Air Force 1. The weight savings means burning less fuel, thus less tax
dollars spent on jet fuel. Thank you!
13. And finally, please ensure that Hillary enjoys the $8 million dollar
advance for her upcoming “tell-all” book and you, Bill, the $10 million
advance for your memoirs. Who says crime doesn’t pay!
14. The last and most important point - thank you for forcing Israel to let
Mohammed Atta go free. Terrorist pilot Mohammed Atta blew up a bus in Israel
in 1986. The Israelis captured, tried and imprisoned him. As part of the Oslo
agreement with the Palestinians in 1993, Israel had to agree to release
so-called “political prisoners”.
However, the Israelis would not release any with blood on their hands. The
American President at the time, Bill Clinton, and his Secretary of State,
Warren Christopher, “insisted” that all prisoners be released. Thus Mohammed
Atta was freed and eventually thanked the US by flying an airplane into Tower
One of the World Trade Center. This was reported by many of the American TV
networks at the time that the terrorists were first identified.
It was censored in the US from all later reports. Why shouldn’t Americans
know the real truth?
What a guy!!
SINCERELY,
A US Citizen
PS. Please pass along a special thank you to Al Gore for “inventing” the
Internet, without which I would not be able to post this wonderful factual
blog.

It’s the first time I’m going to China, the first time I’m travelling alone (I’m a girl), and the first time I’m going to stay in youth hostels - I would really like to know whether they are safe so my belongings don’t get stolen! I’ve been looking at a couple of dormitories in:
- Beijing City Central International Hostel
- Wangfujing International Youth Hostel
- PekingUni International Hostel
- Jade International Youth Hostel
The main point is safety, low cost and central location, not to mention cleanliness!
For part of my trip I have to stay very close to Peking University so I would like to hear any suggestions of where to stay too.
I would appreciate any advice.
Thanks

Everybody was kung-fu fighting
Those cats were fast as lightning
In fact it was a little bit frightning
But they fought with expert timing
They were funky China men from funky Chinatown
They were chopping them up and they were chopping them down
It’s an ancient Chineese art and everybody knew their part
From a feint into a slip, and kicking from the hip
Everybody was kung-fu fighting
Those cats were fast as lightning
In fact it was a little bit frightning
But they fought with expert timing
There was funky Billy Chin and little Sammy Chung
He said here comes the big boss, lets get it on
We took a bow and made a stand, started swinging with the hand
The sudden motion made me skip now we’re into a brand knew trip
Everybody was kung-fu fighting
Those cats were fast as lightning
In fact it was a little bit frightning
But they did it with expert timing
(repeat)..make sure you have expert timing
Kung-fu fighting, had to be fast as lightning
