"The charge of aiding the enemy under the Uniform Code of Military Justice is a capital offense, but the Army's prosecution team has notified the Manning defense team that it will not recommend the death penalty to the two-star general who is in charge of proceeding with legal action."

Will not work in US. Special Interst Groups hide behind the 1st Amendment which the court has consistantly ruled that lobbies have the right to petition the government. There are rules about money contribution of course. But the sad fact is that our represenatives have been bought and sold by corporations and special interest groups. Those with the most money get to decide what our goverment looks like. I for one am not very happy with what America looks like today.
From Wikipedia (emphasis mine):
When the Constitution was crafted by Framers such as James Madison, their intent was to design a governmental system in which powerful interest groups would be rendered incapable of subdoing the general will. According to Madison, a faction was "a number of citizens, whether amounting to a minority or majority of the whole, who are united and actuated by some common impulse of passion, or of interest, adverse to the rights of other citizens, or to the permanent and aggregate interests of the community." Madison considered factions as dangerous, since they threatened to bring about tyranny if their control became too great.
Patent Approval Office run by Chimps armed with Darts

Without clicking on this link tell me what the above patent is for? Then tell me how a patent office is supposed to approve patents for things so technical or nebulous that unless you are trained in the field in which the patent is relevant you may as well have untrained chimps in charge.
Mainly because Cameron and Obummer are buddies. This keeps Cameron traveling to the US often so he can't mess things up in the UK as much. I guess he hasn't been able to come to the US as often (maybe because Obummer has been busy on vacation so much).
Sometimes I wonder if we are repeating the past not just at the time prior to the American Revolution. But lately it feels more like the dark ages and the times of the crusades.
Remember to be thankful if you were represented according to your values
I emailed my Rep. Chris Stewart and thanked him for voting for the amendment, and explained why I was concerned. I've emailed my friends that live where I do and asked them to do the same and to email their friends.
Do you really think high school student have rights?
When I was in high school I became good friends with the math teacher. When I pointed out a violation of civil liberties he answered with: High School students have no rights. They're just kids and they will be treated as such either by the administration, the authorities and the public at large.
Sadly what he said is more true than false. This story is few and far between what the actual reality is.
The direct analogy of this is that you must give the keys to your house to any officer or federal agent that demands them from you.
Sad state this country is in. This all started with Bush and Obummer is just taking it to the next level. Makes me sick.
