The Scooter Libby Trial
With 23 months left in President Bush’s final term, the “Scooter” Libby trial will likely have no consequences for his administration. The daily events of the trial will certainly make headlines, and there will be accusations from the Left and denials from the Right. But in the end, the …
Barack Obamma .com
Reviews should never be written while a person is mad from poor customer service.
Being a faithful campaign assistant, I wanted a souvenir, besides a t-shirt, from Barack Obama’s campaign. Souvenirs often have meaning and value. Some are meant to be worn daily, and stand for something believed …

President Obama
President Obama is a great president. I think that his intentions are good and that he is a real strong fighter and doesn’t give up easily, just look at the current healthcare issue; he is not giving up on it. I think it is cool that president Obama does …
Democratic congress
After almost a decade of Bush bashing, it would make sense that the Democrats would take power in Washington. Bush was “teh evulz” so obviously Republicans weren’t fit to serve. So we got a liberal president with a liberal congress.
What has the change brought us? Well, …
David Miliband (politician)
David Miliband is the older brother of the current leader of the United Kingdom’s opposition Labour Party, Ed Miliband. Up until very recently it was David who was expected by most people to have the more significant political career, especially as he had already served at a high level …
Republican Presidential Candidate Mitt Romney
Mitt Romney is a former Governor from Massachussetts and although he has not announced yet he is expected to be a candidate for president for 2012. I believe that he is a great person but I just don’t believe that he’s the right guy to run …
George W. Bush
Even the best of intentions can often go so badly people end up hating you. I think that’s what George W. Bush is facing in his final term as president.
I really believe every one of his policies have been with the best interests of the American people in mind, …
Bush’s Secret Eavesdropping on Americans
Ok, now Bush has really done it. He’s gone too far. Flagrantly violating the Constitution by ordering the use of illegal wiretaps goodness knows how many times. Even conservatives are in an uproar. Almost nobody is going to stand for this.
But here’s the thing. …
Manny Villar
Manny Villar is one of the aspiring presidential wannabes in the Philippines this upcoming May 2010 polls. The Philippines being a 3rd world, mostly of the people are uneducated and what they see is what they believe. And when they are given a brief comfort from candidates, they think …
Noynoy Aquino
Noynoy Aquino has a possibility to run as president in the next year’s election in the Philippines. I think I will not vote for Manny Villar no more because for me Noynoy Aquino is more capable as well as have the heart for filipinos like her mother the former …
Sarah Palin
I believe Sarah Palin is what will be the key to John McCain wining the election for president. She is what we have been needing in Washington D.C. for some time. It is about time we kick out the old cronies that have been holding the average American hostage …
Teacher’s Strike,Victoria,BC,Canada
Why can’t the Provincial government realize that the youth of today should have all the benefits that a productive society can afford to give them! Our public school system even though is far better than schools in other countries, is still in need of some improvements.
We can look at …
Conservative Party of Canada
Swept to power after the Liberal Party’s implosion over the Sponsorship Scandal, the Conservatives have mismanaged Canada far more critically than the Liberals ever did.
The Conservative Party is far more corrupt than the Liberals were ever, as shown in the Chuck Cadman scandal. Cadman was an MP from British …
Rudy Giuliani
I don’t quite know what to think about Rudy Giuliani. On the one hand, he seemed to be one of the better candidates for President. On the other hand, his campaign was so mismanaged from day one that I really don’t know what he was thinking. …
Jim Doyle
I voted for Jim Doyle when he ran for Wisconsin Governor in 2002. I’ve been regretting that decision since.
I won’t say Jim Doyle has made a mess of things in Madison, that happened prior to him being elected. However, in 4 years, he has done nothing to show me …
George Bush
I don’t consider myself to be a staunch Bush supporter but I did support him during his first term. He became president after being governor of Texas. During his last term and when he left office he was very unpopular. I believe that he …
Louisiana Governor Bobby Jindal
Bobby Jindal is the best governor of Louisiana since Huey Long in the mid 1900’s. He is a great leader, and he knows how to get things done so that the state of Louisiana can advance. I really think that he is a great politician.
Jindal has done …
Manny Villar
I am not a person who love watching news about politics. Next year, here in the Philippines, we will elect again a new president and I admit I don’t have a politician in mind that I will vote for president aside from Manny Villar.
I don’t know Manny Villar …
H.M.Soeharto
Soeharto is President of Indonesia for around 32 years and currently had passed away at 86 years old with pros and cons whether he has to be remembered as a hero or a criminal.
As I know, Soeharto is a son of a farmer and irrigation officer who decided to …
Hillary Clinton Supports a One World Government
Hillary Clinton talks a lot about Universal Health care and other plans she has. But she is not being honest with her fans. I don’t know why she hides things from the people. It seems she is trying to trick people into trusting her. She has secretly attended the Bilderberg …
Rudy Giuliani
Rudy Giuliani is slipping in the polls. All of the polls and now he is doing what he said he would not do and campaigning in the states with the earliest caucuses and primaries, but have the lowest number of delegates. His original game plan was to focus …
Lal Krishna Advani
The general election in India is just going to happen. This election may also provide some staggering results as the last one. But one thing that is clear that election has helped in raising the stature of Lal Krishna Advani. Advani is the Prime Minister Candidate of NDA.
Advani has …
George W. Bush
I think that George W. Bush was the worst president of all time in the United States of America. He left office with the lowest approval rating in history at 21% due to his failed policies that tanked our economy and left the United States in a deficit of …
Senator Obama
The point that Senator Barack Obama lacks the necessary experience to act as Commander in Chief is quite irrelevant.
Senator Obama has rightly pointed out that in spite of their huge political experiences with their impressive curriculum vitae, people such as Bush, Cheney, Rumsfeld and Hillary Clinton wrongfully engaged the …
Manny Villar
Last Monday at the Philippine Life Insurance Congress, I was fortunate enough to have listened to the talk of Senator Manny Villar as he is one of our Guest Speaker.
You’d think that a person of his stature - Senator and one of the richest people in the Philippines, …
Ralph Recto, Youngest Senator in the Philippine 12th Congress
Ralph Recto a former Senator of the Philippine Senate lost his bid for re-election in 2007 National Election. I myself did not vote for him because I believe he did not deserve to be re-elected. He was the author of the Reformed Value Added Law that has now …
Ron Paul For President
The other day I saw part of a debate on You Tube and one of the candidates I had never heard of was Ron Paul. What I learned was that Ron Paul is running as a Republican candidate for President of the United States of America. Ron Paul did …
Obama’s Historic Speech on Race
The Elections of 2008 will undoubtedly be historic for many reasons. The race between Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama is without precedent. This marks the first time in history that a woman has sought her party’s nomination for president.
We cannot say it is the first …
Should Donald Trump Run for President
Donald Trump is a real estate developer. He has a lot of buildings throughout the country that were both built and named after him. Although he won’t say exactly what he’s worth most people assume that it’s a lot. I love watching him answer questions about …
Election 2006 Singapore
Singapore, being a small country, generally dosen’t have vast groups of political entities. In fact, there are only 4 notable ones, namely the People Action Party (PAP), the Workers’ Party (WP), Singapore Democratic Party (SDP) and the Singapore Democratic Alliances (SDA).
PAP is the currently ruling party and they always …
Philippine Senate President Manuel Villar
Last, after eating dinner, I was watching television and it was on ABS-CBN Channel 15, then while I was watching I saw this advertisement from Senate President Manuel Villar, he was campaign for something like helping abused overseas Filipino workers to get back home immediately. Well, I was …
Hillary Clinton
The past fifteen days or so have been quite extraordinary in US politics with Barak Obama scoring victories in quick succession, one after another in various primaries, finally managing a thin lead over Hillary Clinton in terms of number of delegates. On the face of it, this development would …
Gov. Sarah Palin
I have to say that I’m certainly not a fan of Sarah Palin. She was the republican vice presidential candidate in 08 and now she’s a TV celebrity and she works for Fox News. Some of the things that she says and does are completely …
The Dylan Ratigan Show On MSNBC
I really don’t like how the political news is broadcast today, it seems to be more about entertainment and opinions, rather than real news. I tried watching FOX news but it was so slanted towards the right, it seemed phony and unreal, I watch MSNBC mostly because they …
President Barak Obama
OK, I’m going to be fair about this and will start out by saying I know he’s only been president for a couple of weeks so giving him a grade this early into his president (before his first 100 days are even up) is jumping the gun a bit.
And, …
Senator Ramon “Bong” Revilla, Jr.
Senator Ramon, “Bong” Revilla, Jr. is seeking re-election as Senator for 2010 Philippine National Election. Survey says he is now leading the senatorial slate.
Well now I believe that popularity is one way to win an election. I’ve read the resume of Senator Bong Revilla but despite the long list …
Presidential Candidate Barack Obama
I’ve been reading awhile on the internet and I’ve seen a few people mention how they feel Senator Barack Obama is not fit to be President of the United States. Well, I feel different. I feel we need a change from the “norm” so to speak. There’s no such …
Barack Obama
To be honest, I am a foreigner from the Philippines to be exact that followed the U.S. election from the start. I believe that the election affects the whole world and people from other countries should learn more about it.
If I am a U.S. citizen, I would choose …
Philippine President Gloria Macapagal Arroyo
She is just a small person, I haven’t seen her in person, but she is very visible at eyes of the media. So far, in my entire 21 years of life as a Filipino, she’s one of the most controversial President that I have ever seen. Almost …
The Democratic Party
I can’t say I agree with many of the policies implemented by the Republicans while George Bush has been in office, but I don’t think I’ll be voting for a Democrat anytime soon either.
The problem with the Democratic party is they really aren’t that different than the Republicans and …
Barack Obama
When candidates first started announcing their intentions to run for the office of the President of the United States, I will admit that I was not enthused about candidates from either party. Like a lot of Americans, I was tired of the same old over-inflated promises that politicians …
Free Computer Literacy Program
If I would be asked to enumerate what benefits do I get from the government, one on the top of my list would be the Free Computer Literacy Program of the Provincial government of Cavite implemented at Cavite Computer Center (CCC).
CCC is an extension office of the Office of …
Mike Gravel
Mike Gravel is a very good man. He is running for President and he is a man of honor and principle. Mike Gravel is the man who was responsible for getting rid of the draft in the U.S. He is very brave and works hard for the people of the …
FEMA
After Hurricane Katrina did its damage a couple years ago, FEMA got a bad rep for being slow to react and not providing adequate help for those in need.
However, after recent flooding here, I got to experience FEMA first hand and, after doing so, I have to admit they …
