I like your manner of speaking, however, in reference to the stats on the Iraqi war, I am appalled that NO one is addressing the deaths at home. 3 5 0 0 on the highways ARE KILLED AT HOME. No one is parading in the streets over that. In regard to deaths HERE at home there are between 40,000- 12,000 annually killed with weapons on our streets and in our homes. No one is parading in the streets over that. Domestic violence is killing children and family members here at home and were worried about the streets and infrastructure and military deaths to bring to a middle east country the hope of a better way of life and as well support their oil industry while our own industries are suffering. Illegal immigration has been a disgrace to the point that the American Citizen is having their accounts drawn down by the workers who take jobs, the babies born for free, the medical procedures done for nothing, and the other problems of drugs and criminal behavior. It is now Latino on Latino crimes as well as on the average citizen run down by Illegals who do not have Driver's Ed. and cannot read our road signs and yet there are those in government positions who want to issue driver's license to unqualified drivers. Do you go to any other country and demand such services???? Do you go to any other country and try to VOTE IN their electrions?????

Nissan has independently developed the Super Motor based on an all-new concept. One motor provides output through two shafts, enabling it to function as both a motor and a generator. This innovative technology has a wide range of potential applications.
Features of the Super Motor
The Super Motor can dramatically reduce the size and improve the efficiency of the drive unit compared with the use of two conventional motors.
Independent control of the power obtained from the two shafts.
Configuration of Super Motor
The Super Motor has rotors positioned on both the inside and outside of one stator, enabling power to be delivered through two shafts by using of a new technology to apply compound current to the Stator coils.
Application examples
The Super Motor offers the advantages of two output shafts and higher power density, making it suitable for a wide range of applications.
Subject: Still not working
Stay still to here the truth from American's?
If our Government is full of the Greatest Minds in the World then what dose it take to fix this mess they have let a bush get us in to ?
you should Test it will reveal that most of the REPUBLICANOT'S where not as smart as they said it just shows every time they open there moths' there intelligence keep's showing up!and only stop's the progress of the Nation in every thing that they Do or more like NOT DO !
Happy Independents Day America!
I think we are further from American an Independents than We were from the start ! It started out to be U.S. verses British Rule and now it is the United States of America Verses The rule of OIL but are we fighting to help the rule of Oil or are WE fighting to brake away from Oil it is all the to be looked at but we are on the wrong side at this time in history of true Independents we have the technologies to brake away from the RULER of Oil but our Leader in not for Independents he is for the Rule of OIL and the Rule of Oil is not IN this Country so the Ruler
is not in this country and so the people of this country is too suffer the poor to suffer the most of all because the ruler of Oil has sent job's away so the people would have more to complain about and still not really do a thing to fix this mess , the Rule has taken away all your Rights from are True INDEPENDENTS to try to replace it with the rule of Oil , and not to use the TECHNOLOGIES of yesterday to bring it to the Future, so by doing so we are not so Independent as WE should be. I can not stand it, I could be thronging names or Businesses names but most people know the truth and it is just a mater of time when the people of this country start dying for this U.S.A. country agian !
Electric could be are NEW INDEPENDENTS! FROM THE RULER OF OIL! Happy Independents Day America!
I am so addicted to Oil but can not find the OIL RE-HAB LAB? I hate Oil!
I herd about anther energy it is called Electric and it make's electrons how cool is that! if you can cool it ?? I think, you can, I even past on my thought's too be a good AMERICAN and FORD ran out of the country. and G.M. did it here what I said?
Time for Dare you to get off oil, time to get Terrorisms out of your Government terrorism, YOUR money is paying for the criminal acts against American's that are killing yes, you & me!
As the politicians and pundits scream for the blood of all those who harbor, finance or support terrorism - do not mistake the fact that YOUR money paid for the criminal acts More & MORE know this is the truth!
this? IMPEACH !, or it could hurt your young it is hurting them today but tomorrow?
It will destroy them!
Just too many people see this too ? it is really hard too think this but, all about Finding the link with Hitler & the Bush's there is just to much to just stop, to help to save WE THE PEOPLE! ,well ,If my grandfather was a cunning criminal I would like to get even to . But my grandfather was a good man not a Bush trying to get even with U.S.! well you should look out that the USA dose not get even with you BUSH.?!
(BUSH & OIL)
To gain control first they create a problem then they provide the solution. One way or another the solution always results in more loss of
freedom for USA and more power for them.
As the politicians and pundits (THE FOULS) and some still do not see or will not see, and still scream for the blood of all those who harbor, finance or support terrorism and it is them that are still FOULS the REPUBLICANOT'S - do not mistake the fact that,
YOUR money paid for the criminal acts How's that working' out for ya?
Don't get squeamish on me.
If it weren't true, It would not be such a big thing with them! and wouldn't say it. George W. Bush and the OIL elite know it, and The entire Intelligence establishment of the United States government knows it. some have come out of the wood work and are very afraid So Why is this the most important untold story in the world today?
The mainstream media and your government representatives are complicit in the mass-murder committed in the attacks that took place all over this World They are guilty of harboring and giving aid and comfort to the perpetrators U.S. and of It's institutions only some are responsible for the carnage.
The mainstream media needed to put a stop to the NON-EXISTENT "homegrown terrorism" threat. and admission of accountability for the
crime's The Ruler has put in are Path .! & ?
Hebrews 13:7
Remember them which have the rule over you, who have spoken unto you the word of God: whose faith follow, considering the end of their conversation.
Revelation 9:11
And they had a King over them. which is the angel of the bottomless pit. Those name in the Hebrew tongue is A-bad' don, but in the Greek tongue hath his name A-pol'ly-on.
America is waving the flag for unity while REPUBLICANOT'S beating the drums of war.
America is claiming that "Freedom" But, Freedom was dead and buried long before September 11th, and the war that the ignorant masses seek will be more horrible than they can even imagine.
At the end of all of this, we will have a One-World Government, a Global Apostate Religion and we will join these two abominations with the Global finance system that already controls the money system of the world.
You will be forced to take a "mark", without which you will not buy or sell.
You will wave your flag and beat your drums in the Globo-fascist world that you have helped to create.
And you will bow your knee to Caesar, or you will lose your head for your trouble. and If you would like a good read on how it worked out last time
then just you read this too.

George Bush: The Unauthorized Biography --- by Webster G. Tarpley & Anton Chaitkin
------------------------------------------------------------Chapter-II - The Hitler Project Bush Property Seized--Trading with the Enemy In October 1942, ten months after entering World War II, America was preparing its first assault against Nazi military forces. Prescott Bush was managing partner of Brown Brothers Harriman. His 18-year-old son George, the future U.S. President, had just begun training to become a naval pilot. On Oct. 20, 1942, the U.S. government ordered the seizure of Nazi German banking operations in New York City which were being conducted by Prescott Bush.Under the Trading with the Enemy Act, the government took over the Union Banking Corporation, in which Bush was a director. The U.S. Alien Property Custodian seized Union Banking Corp.'s stock shares, all of which were owned by Prescott Bush, E. Roland `` Bunny'' Harriman, three Nazi executives, and two other associates ofBush.@s1 The order seizing the bank `` vests '' (seizes) `` all of the capital stock of Union Banking Corporation, a New York corporation, '' and names the holders of its shares as:E. Roland Harriman--3991 shares''[chairman and director of Union Banking Corp. (UBC); this is `` Bunny'' Harriman, described by Prescott Bush as a place holder who didn't get much into banking affairs; Prescott managed his personal investments]``Cornelis Lievense--4
shares '' [president and director of UBC; New York resident banking functionary for the Nazis]`` Harold D. Pennington--1share ''
[treasurer and director of UBC; an office manager employed by Bush at Brown Brothers Harriman]` Ray Morris--1 share ''[director of
UBC; partner of Bush and the Harrimans] Prescott S.Bush--1 share
''[director of UBC, which was co-founded and sponsored by his father-in-law George Walker; senior managing partner for E. Roland
Harriman and Averell Harriman]` H.J. Kouwenhoven--1 share ''[director of UBC; organized UBC as the emissary of Fritz Thyssen in negotiations with George Walker and Averell Harriman; managing director of UBC's Netherlands affiliate under Nazi occupation; industrial executive inNazi Germany; director and chief foreign financial executive of the German Steel Trust]> `` Johann G. Groeninger--1 share ''[director of UBC andof its Netherlands affiliate; industrial executive in Nazi Germany]``all of which shares are held for the benefit of ... members of the Thyssenfamily, [and] is property of nationals ... of a designated enemy country....
By Oct. 26, 1942, U.S. troops were under way for NorthAfrica. On Oct.28, the government issued orders seizing two Nazi front organizations run by the Bush-Harriman bank: the Holland-American TradingCorporation and the Seamless Steel Equipment Corporation.@s2 U.S.forces landed under fire near Algiers on Nov. 8, 1942; heavy combat raged throughout November. Nazi interests in the Silesian-American Corporation, long managed by Prescott Bush and his father-in-law George Herbert Walker, were seized under the Trading with the Enemy Act on Nov. 17, 1942. In this action, the government announced that it was seizing only the Nazi interests, leaving the Nazis' U.S. partners to carry on the business.@s3 These and other actions taken by the U.S. government in wartime were, tragically, too little and too late.
President Bush's family had already played a central role in financing
and arming Adolf Hitler for his takeover of Germany; in financing and managing the buildup of Nazi war>> industries for the conquest of Europe and war against the U.S.A.; and in the development of Nazi genocide theories and racial propaganda, with their well-known results. The facts presented here must be known, and their implications reflected upon, for a proper understanding of President George Herbert Walker Bush and of the danger to mankind that here presents. The President's family fortune was largely a result of the Hitler project. The powerful Anglo-American family associations, which later boosted him into the Central Intelligence Agency and up to the Whitehouse, were his father's partners in the Hitler project.>>>> it gos
on and on!?.
I think We all know you are doing what you can, it must be a lonely life you people are livening like a movie star with out the glamour just the paparazzi and the only time someone call's on you is for something but I think this is the type of life you asked for, you need help just like every one in this ! Good luck getting us out of this one!
I think if one or more of the senators have a vested interest in Oil or alterative energy, they should not be able to vote becouse they have a vested interest in one or the other and it will be the only way to get a real honest VOTE in Congress.
Wake up Debbie. It's time to do your job. Election time WILL come again.
Please consider the other approaches to solving this financial crises. The American people should not have to put our dollars into the corrupt financial markets. I hope you will not support the emergency economic stabilization with your vote tonight. No one seems to want to look at the alternatives. It seems everybody want to obliterate the American Government financially. It looks like the govt will give all control to Federal Reserve Bank and the National Treasury. It reminds of the quote by Rothchild many years ago that says something like If I control a countries money then I care not who makes the laws. Is this what America has come to?
It was reassuring to me that you "broke ranks" last night and voted against this bailout legislation. It looks like too few senators are there for we the people. Your fellow senator did not listen to us. That is too bad. There are many, like myself that are using this as an acid test for their votes this November. Thank you once again for voting against the bailout!
Michigan needs emergency unemployment passed now, people are broke, cannot find jobs. I know the workers didn't ruin this state. So while your on vacation, we'll wonder where are next meal is coming from. THANK YOU!
I am ashamed that D. Stabenow is from Michigan. She is speaking of an attempt to infringe on our first ammendment rights. She is actually afraid of what the public knows. She doesn't want us to know the truth of what the congress is doing with our money.
How many zeros in a billion?
This is too true to be funny.
The next time you hear a politician use the
word 'billion' in a casual manner, think about
whether you want the 'politicians' spending
YOUR tax money.
A billion is a difficult number to comprehend,
but one advertising agency did a good job of
putting that figure into some perspective in
one of its releases.
A.
A billion seconds ago it was 1959.
B.
A billion minutes ago Jesus was alive.
C.
A billion hours ago our ancestors were
living in the Stone Age.
D.
A billion days ago no-one walked on the earth on two feet.
E.
A billion dollars ago was only
8 hours and 20 minutes,
at the rate our government
is spending it.
While this thought is still fresh in our brain...
let's take a look at New Orleans .
It's amazing what you can learn with some simple division.
Louisiana Senator,
Mary Landrieu (D)
is presently asking Congress for
250 BILLION DOLLARS
to rebuild New Orleans . Interesting number...
what does it mean?
A.
Well.... if you are one of the 484,674 residents of New Orleans
(every man, woman, and child)
you each get $516,528.
B.
Or... if you have one of the 188,251 homes in
New Orleans , your home gets $1,329,787..
C.
Or... if you are a family of four...
your family gets $2,066,012.

U S A
at least 100 times
What the heck happened?????
Senator Stabenow,I live in your great state of Michigan and am an avid hunter,outdoorsman and gun collector..I think this H.R 45 bill is just a covert way of confiscating our guns and our rights under the second amendment..Please vote against this bill..Thank You,Fellow Michiganian
Please Do Not pass HR 875 it will kill all rural farmers!!!!!
Michigan Voters can get rid of this toxic asset through the use of Michigans State Constitution Article II Section 8 Recall Petition. Why wait till 2012, do what Michigan needs to be rid of this toxic asset. Begin the recall petition now
Senator Stabenow, You were born and raised in Michigan. You have made the statement that you believe in traditional American values. I read that your voting record is 100% with party line. So my question is how are you going to vote on HR45. We will all be watching, and so will the criminals, as if this bill passes the criminals will be happy. Please do the right thing......vote HR45 down!!
Senator Stabenow, I am Taxed Enough Already. Why does your party insist on "spreading the wealth?" I worked hard in high school, college, and to get my job. I don't see how my money under your party's policies can give my money away to those that didn't, don't, and never will work hard for it.
Hey, Deb. Are you actually going to help sell us out to SOCIALISM???
This is AMERICA!!!If you and your pals in DC want SOCIALISM, go live somewhere else!!!
WE DON'T WANT IT!!!
I realize that you WILL VOTE WITH YOUR PARTY ON THIS ONE ANYWAY, BUT vote no on the national energy tax!!!
STOP IT!!!
YOU ARE ROBBING US BLIND!!!
Can't wait 'till TEXAS or VERMONT ceceeds from this GOD FORSAKEN union.
As soon as that happens, I'm out of here!!!
Senator Stabenow: It is very obvious that you do not care what your constituents want. You vote with your party 96%. Do you not have the courage to do what is right for our Country? WE DO NOT WANT MORE GOVERMENT CONTROL! Vote NO on this Socialist Health Care Bill, and NO on SB2099. You will be voted out of office if this gets pushed through. p nielsen
We are waiting for your "Town Hall Meeting" HR3200 - read the official summery, spent most of the week reading the actual bill - Queations : Why not fix medicare? Why did Congress and the senate opp out ( page 50-51) You guys should be at the front of the line to sign up. Where is John Dingell he should be all over television touting hoiw he will be the first to sign up! That is the only way (as I see it) you will get the People behind this mess. And to think just in Sept and October Medicare was going broke and Obama was saying the "Folks" were going get health care like the congress and the senate.
What the heck are you doing? How could you vote for Cass Sunstein? He is so out of touch with reality and mainstream America it is unbelievalbe. He believes,
"A government that is constitutionally required to offer each citizen a "useful" job in the farms or industries of the nation.
A country whose leadership intercedes to ensure every farmer can sell his product for a good return.
A nation that has the power to act against "unfair competition" and monopolies in business"
Where is that in our Constitution? Who is he to tell someone where they can work or will work or how to go to makret or where?
You need to get your act together and read the Constitution of the United States and the Federalist Papers. If you need a copy I can send you one. Start upholding the Constitution, you swore to protect and the rights of teh individual to live our lives in without government interference. Represent the people of Michigan!! NOT your Liberal Socialist Agenda.
Anyone reading these comments needs to ask themselves why would these senators support unfair trade policies with third world countries ? If you think the employment is bad now in the country and michigan just wait till these guilty feeling liberals pass cap and trade Oh and that health bill too These liberals are just creating more dependent people on government handouts
What is a so called green job anyways? Michigan lost 670,000 jobs already with another 300,000 to go within the next year. Granholm is touting creating 40,000 in the next 11 years. Are you kidding? Do the math math doesn't lie is always logic Stop with the liberal handouts that just create slaves for your party Get some real fair trade policies going What was the tradeoff with china anyways buy our junk AAA rated bonds and we give china all our technology and manufacturing jobs ?
