Of operating them at the highest possible level. Mrs. Burwell violated the medicare trigger, for example. Trustees of medicare issue a report that is heading to insolvency. Its a critical matter. The administration by law is required within two weeks to submit a plan to fix medicare, and they have been submitting this report for years. As the president s director on the 31usc1105, ms. Burwell was the person responsible for submitting medicare legislation to congress. We asked her about that before she was confirmed. During her hearing, she said she would do everything in her power to comply with the federal law. Yet, despite this assurance, she refused to comply with the law and never submitted a plan. Dont we need a plan to fix medicare . Dont we need the chief executive of america through the budget director to submit a plan to fix it . She also violated the law and denied Congress Needed transparency with respect to the health care law, the obamacare law. So the omnibus appropriatio
Stars and bubbles. Through, i wasng just interviewing a lot of different people. 14 or 15 people that i will talk to and say what do you think about this scenario. I do not like anything that is less than a probability of what things might be. That is why you saw me put up three scenarios. I do estimates based on circle size. Lly troublesome one, a confederation in syria. How do you assess them . I do an estimate for the overlaps of how i think they might communicate. I came up with those estimates in terms of not official statements, because i do not care about the official statements, i care about what those supporters are talking about in the online community, who i am reaching out to in terms of experts. I will ask them their opinions because i cannot stay on top of these different groups. Official statements will stay with the oldcard al qaeda, but i look for pushes and pulls in between.

Somewhere in afghanistan, pakistan and from there are plotting and planning to carry out attacks against the United States and others. Thats the definition used by this administration, and when they talk about affiliates, very looselyaligned groups that share some of the same goals of alqaeda but not all of them. Sometimes listen to what the alqaeda core says, sometimes dont and have their own agendas, usually local. They want to overthrow the local guy, replace him with their type of leadership, impose their vision of a very extremist sharia on unwilling muslims. So thats the definition thats useed by this administration. My definition of alqaeda is actually based primarily on their selfdefinition; that is, the way alqaeda itself defines itself.

Cetera, i think its because of the enduring strength of our people and our system. For all of our difficulty in education for our children, they still taught to challenge orthodoxy. No one in america is diminished or punished for challenging orthodoxy. Its the only way there can be a breakthrough. Its a challenge orthodoxy. Where ex competition is fair. People have a right to express their view, practice their religion, and decide their future. These are u
The democratic platform from the 2008 campaign, you are looking at the best and the brightest and a group of folks highly educated and highly intelligent. Pillory clinton is a very smart woman. Joe biden is not an idiot by any stretch of the imagination. You go over to the right side of the aisle, and you are looking at folks who are out at second everybodys second. No one there is what you call list. If someone you couldnt we vote for, someone who would spend their entire life in politics. The difference between liberals and conservatives, most of them, if they can just be left alone by the government and everyone else, they would be happy to do that. If they were just a conservative country and say that we are going to do our thing and you do your thing, we will do our thing and you do your thing.
