Maybe now after the AP incident the Media will probe deeper into the Benghazi charade.
I am a Hispanic American with over 40 years of political involvement in all areas from petition gathering to voting. I was amused by all the NONSENSICAL thinking that the Republican party lost because they did not get the Hispanic vote. To all who thought that as well as those who continuously ran their mouth on the Hispainic vote, I say WAKE UP ! By the way annointing ANYONE as a Hispanic spokesperson is folly ! Marco Rubio is being played for a chump on this immigration reform bill, those around him best wake up to the fact that he is being allowed by others to take the lead. Wonder why? Does ANYONE wonder why Sen. Charles Schumer is allowing this?
The breakup of the FAMILY UNIT (Fatherless households) regardless of race or ethnicity, due to unintended consequences of social programs is at the root of increased violence in our society.
dieseldriver; Check it,, out Multinationals & OTHERS TAKE ADVANTAGE of low wage countries, export to the U.S consumer market & charge union labor prices.By affixing a tariff , you take away the GREED motive and the jobs will NOT leave a multitude of unemployed behind. Go to ANY big department store, ie: Sears and see how many items were made in the U.S.A. Do NOT swallow the trade war nonsense, ask yourself how many multinational corporations are American owned?
Multinational corporations take advantage of lower tax rates in other countries in addition to other advantages. A fairer and less intrusive approach, would be, for a tariff to be imposed on any item the corporation sends back to it's country of origin.

A Real Term Limit

TERM LIMITS ALREADY EXIST THEY CALLED ELECTIONS! It is indeed unfortunate that many wipeouts are contiuosly re-elected and the blame DESPITE all forms of excuse lies with the electorate. Second to the electorate the blame falls on the media ,which has lost sight of the fact that the reason they have Freedom of The Press is to keep the citizenry properly informed. There is no doubt that some career politician serve ONLY to better their lot, but that is not cause to smear others who do have the interest of their constituency in mind.

THIS IS A CONTINUATION OF MY PRIOR COMMENT. The problem with the Social Security Trust Fund is the lessening of income. To address this problem needs tests should be used to determine if an applicant is in NEED of a Social Security check, which if not, will be either banked or invested for a return.Any applicant NOT in need will be given the option of (A) -full refund of all FICA taxes paid or (B) - reinvestment of ALL FICA taxes paid with an annual TAX FREE dividend given & the ability to bequeath the reinvestment, again TAX FREE. ...Given these options will no doubt result in the majority selecting OPTION (B)...Not having to issue monthly checks will increase the balance of the Social Secuity Trust Fund and assure FULL benefits .

I am broke and owe approximately $10,000 , however I have projected that in 10 years I will be solvent.. This nonsense of 10 year projectiona are about as ridiculous and non comprehensible by the average person. The Ryan budget , does not even address the major problems of the future, which are the rising costs of health care and SOCIAL SECURITY. As regards SOCIAL SECURITY the conventiona wisdom of REDUCING BENEFITS to all and raising the retirement age is nothing new. The quality of life after age 65 is not the best and will only result in more expenses as regards health care. Means tests are talked about as a way to reduce benefits, but no one has considered using means tests to determine if the applicant has a need .
I am of Puerto Rican descent and have over 45 years of political experiences from petition gathering to serving as a gubernatorial assistant of New York State. I am humored by the ignorance posessed by the so called" POLITICAL SAGES" and out to lunch media. Firstly, NEVER assume that one individual
