And the fact that this nation still continues to borrow what it can not pay back from other governments (especially China), thus getting itself into even MORE debt!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;China OWNS America.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Think about all the taxes we Americans pay every year. Not to mention other revenues such as parking fees, tickets, highway tolls, etc. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;We are forced to give this hard-earned money to the government, and where does it go?&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Your state senator uses it for expensive vacations for him and his MISTRESS.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;div&gt;HOW RUDE. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Or lobbying to change the face of the $50 dollar bill from Ulysses S. Grant to Ronald Reagan.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;POINTLESS!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;I don't even have $50 in my bank account&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;How about we put an end to war spending? Is peace too passé? &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Instead, we can build up this nation's defense system.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;For example, I don't think we are prepared to face nuclear threat (though the media loves to instill this fear in us every day)&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;SO instead of sitting around watching Martha Stewart, obsessing about Facebook, and filling our lives to the brim with DISTRACTIONS&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;We can recognize these problems and WORK IT OUT!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Or wait for our own demise.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;you decide.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;THANK YOU&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;URL&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3673384571474647328-4217991117537128068?l=urliek.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://urliek.blogspot.com/feeds/4217991117537128068/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://urliek.blogspot.com/2010/03/what-good-is-it-to-be-best-looking.html#comment-form' title='3 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3673384571474647328/posts/default/4217991117537128068'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3673384571474647328/posts/default/4217991117537128068'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://urliek.blogspot.com/2010/03/what-good-is-it-to-be-best-looking.html' title='&quot;WHAT GOOD IS IT TO BE THE BEST LOOKING HORSE IN THE GLUE FACTORY?&quot;'/><author><name>urliek</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/04323516935915215373</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_FQBjpn8fTHc/TMpX58g5PGI/AAAAAAAAACw/0joBI4LLpNY/S220/7652190c3523__1287911400000.jpeg'/></author><thr:total>3</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3673384571474647328.post-6782438562711811559</id><published>2009-01-07T22:33:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2009-01-12T22:14:29.222-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Sparky Awards Entry</title><content type='html'>"To Infinity and Beyond"&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;object width="480" height="295"&gt;&lt;param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/PcY7bHn05-M&amp;amp;hl=en&amp;amp;fs=1"&gt;&lt;param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"&gt;&lt;param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"&gt;&lt;embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/PcY7bHn05-M&amp;amp;hl=en&amp;amp;fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="480" height="295"&gt;&lt;/embed&gt;&lt;/object&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a rel="license" href="http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/us/"&gt;&lt;img alt="Creative Commons License" style="border-width:0" src="http://i.creativecommons.org/l/by/3.0/us/80x15.png" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/" href="http://purl.org/dc/dcmitype/MovingImage" property="dc:title" rel="dc:type"&gt;To Infinity and Beyond&lt;/span&gt;
