Doth my conscience believe that selling liquor and or giving out free liquor to loosen the purse strings and rob the poor call it a position of strength.

Or does the dollar control the spirit that gives life?

Harry Reid presided over an ineffective senate made ineffective by Bush puppets in the GOP. It's wasn't his fault that America is still getting shafted by 10 billion a month in an illegal war that should have closed up shop once Saddam was toppled. Look to the GOP military industrial puppets like John Ensign and Porter to pin the tail on here.

Ben Franklin said, "Those who want to give up liberty for security deserve neither".

GWB and Cheney have terrorized their own people.
They investigated 911, 411 days after it happened and then stacked the committee to get their corrupted official report.

The best way against terrorism at home is to make sure all the proper checks and balances are in place.

"The House Judiciary Committee wants to question the president's chief of staff, Josh Bolten, and former legal counsel Harriet Miers, about the firing of nine U.S. attorneys. But President Bush says they are immune from such subpoenas. They say Congress can't force them to testify or turn over documents.

U.S. District Judge John Bates disagreed. He said there's no legal basis for that argument. He said that Miers must appear before Congress and, if she wants to refuse to testify, she must do so in person."

The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results.

The people voted for change, and as long as their representatives embrace that change they will continue to succeed.

I don't see Ensign standing for anything but the same old fear and smear politcs that has collapsed the Hospitality industry here in America.

I use to be an Ensign supporter, but after watching the puppet dance to his master GWB and trample the US Constitution, manipulate the mass media. Yeah those controlled demolitions on 911 they called em collapses. Those 19 super human arabs that rose from the dead to detonate WTC 7, the lack of visible plane debris at the pentagon and the PA crash site all speak to cover up then you have the cover up.

"Another point, however, is that in the process of telling this overall lie, The 9/11 Commission Report tells many lies about particular issues. This point is implied by my critique's subtitle, "Omissions and Distortions." It might be thought, to be sure, that of the two types of problems signaled by those two terms, only those designated "distortions" can be considered lies.

It is better, however, to understand the two terms as referring to two types of lies: implicit and explicit. We have an explicit lie when the Report claims that the core of each of the Twin Towers consisted of a hollow steel shaft or when it claims that Vice President Cheney did not give the shoot-down order until after 10:10 that morning. But we have an implicit lie when the Commission, in its discussion of the 19 alleged suicide hijackers, omits the fact that at least six of them have credibly been reported to be still alive, or when it fails to mention the fact that Building 7 of the World Trade Center collapsed. Such omissions are implicit lies partly because they show that the Commission did not honor its stated intention "to provide the fullest possible account of the events surrounding 9/11." They are also lies insofar as the Commission could avoid telling an explicit lie about the issue in question only by not mentioning it, which, I believe, was the case in at least most instances.

I believeEnsign is highly suspect of patriotic duty for his unswavering allegiance to a dictator instead of using his office to represent the American people.

Will Reid do better? I hope.

The other great financial sucking noise we should hear is the 10 billion a month to finance the war in Iraq plus the loss of jobs here at home due to corporate outsourcing.

When these two areas are corrected the AMERICAN SHIP will right itself.

Obama is the Captain needed for just such a change.

What we are experiencing here in Nevada is a fundamental breakdown of trust with tourism. Not just state to state but nation to nation.

Yes gas prices have sky-rocketed and not because of supply deficiences. It's about regulating and accounting for Exxon/Mobil and other oil companies record surge in profits. 23 billion plus for XON in the first 6 months of 2008. Hey guys that great sucking of dollars has collapsed the economy. Now you see this price gouging manipulation move to bring prices down right around election time. It is what it is - price manipulation not supply and demand issues.

On the other note.. We need alternative inexpensive clean burning fuels to keep tourists coming back. This is a long term issue that will not be addressed by a war mongering leader like John McCain.

Global warming and the unprecedented fires in California have left Nevada one of the worse toxic fallouts around. Any tourist who found himself covered in the fall out of Cal's fire is probably not going to return anytime soon.

Nation to nation fundamentals. Tourism is about hospitality anyone thinking John McCain and his power abusing Caribou/Wolf shooting war mongering side kick Sarah Palin is going to win friends and influence enemies in the tourist countries has been buying the swampland of Bush and Cheneys failed policies.

Obama will give relief to the middle class and put more money in their pockets. That is what this economy thrives on.
