DE LA LSLA: Upcoming election should be barrel of laughs

Jon Stewart said, the cable TV show host in the "Daily Show" comedy, said he plans to lead the "Rally to return to reason" in Washington, October 30. Of course, this statement is to imitate Fox news commentator Glenn Beck, who in memory of Martin Luther King's followers in the history of the performance of "I Have a Dream" Although Baker's point of view the ideal king, as in the Lincoln Memorial speech, which in the dry forest arsonists.
Stewart said on its Web site, "I'm mad as hell, I will not stand it!" (From the Internet to "network" Oscar 1976 film is about a news anchor is unstable.) "We are looking for people who want to scream annoying, instead of your throat, who believes that the most votes should not only hear, who believe that the only time, it is appropriate to draw a person In fact, if Hitler mustache Hitler or Charlie Chaplin, who is in a certain role, "he wrote.
Stephen Colbert, it follows the steward program on his own imitation of the report as the host country. "Colbert and", also announced the same day organized a "March, a protest against living and fear."
Comedian Send a message more powerful than they cowards who have good ideas, but the fear of political participation. This is the foundation's supporters why these strange behavior and cunning appeal. They engaged in more serious lack of a national debate we need.
Humor, satire, satire, parody and testing bombs in the political discourse of the smell. But do not tell the story. Now, people need to understand the plight of decisive leadership in the circumstances, we are now facing. Surgeon more clearly than the patient to lie. Most people want to know what we want to go to the next step, which will make us?
Whether the problem - post (democracy) or tax (tea / Republican), health (Democratic Party) or to treat your wounds (N / Repubs), expansion of Social Security (Oh, no, not again) and so on, so - and fierce What is the House of Representatives and the Senate will play a role, will become partners in the ruling will remain idle in the Senate through the use of the advantages of the minority party and the opposition. ? ?
November's elections, the scope of operation, the budget will be taken to stabilize the deficit is necessary, which injected to strengthen the economically underdeveloped areas. This is whether the Republican Party can stay as long as the pre-Bush. Will the right-wing rebels expelled, the rest of the building and the old Lincoln? Attachment of former Democratic Party will mean so-called go willingly or unwillingly, and through the Republican Party dressed as the old center?
These and other circumstances that have seen a small light. Rather, it is juked the public about early childhood care and chicken barter Memphis political silly metaphor.
Crazy misunderstanding of our time is about the voting process itself. Votes are actually working in the community and how people make decisions with our democracy. , Not by strength, loneliness, and the support by the defensive wall

renew a book being sold, as well as the physical book sales in general electronic form through the book to move Amazon.com. proven true as both music and videos, and retailers in this transformation, is bad news for bricks and mortar. B & N still alive, if a player is less than.

Why this interest in Burkle opportunistic usually sunk assured response to any (man this is not a fan of the book) is one of the questions. Apart from taking a shot from the current administration, Burkle retail stores do not provide the capacity to survive a lot of ideas about strategy. How, for example, that 400 renewal leases that come up now and April 2014 while he worked? What about 720 additional stores 10-15 years locked in long-term lease? quickly on the scene through the distribution of e-books, all possible with this place?

Reggio and run his company into the ground. Burkle is the right of the company's management, such as a personal piggybank, and insufficient control of the Council. But the mystery is why is it still bothering address the problem.

the lack of a better explanation, perhaps there is a lot of people involved. In other words, Burkle and Reggio do not love each other very much. When the shareholders of institutions such as the cluster (Reggio became a potential buyer) to develop the company, Reggio Burkle said in a letter "that I do not do this. It is not right for a company and a great reputation is the" New York Journal.

Reggio does not respond to a letter, but expressed dismay. Burkle to his belief in "prestige" and especially the rich debate he said. email to a member of the Governing Council, participated in the past to about Reggio, the Burkle Bill Clinton, and how the relationship "at the end of the day open doors" of debt, access to that boasted. "I said to see himself as a human ',' Maybe this link due to its former president, wrote that" Reggio. "This was proof to all my growing suspicion I was delusional." Reggio also complained that "the greatest sales and a" source of investment Handala are destructive. "Then I realized that I know and believe that now," Riggio wrote: "This man really believed that all things are distasteful and utopia.
