		<title>After Gordon Brown&#8217;s farcical apology to the pensioner from Rochdale who he deemed a bigot for her views on immigration, is there anything worse that he could have done in light of the up and coming general election to sway public opinion?</title>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div>
<p>For a bit of fun I&#8217;ve  listed a couple of things which would seriously damage his campaign if  Gordon Brown was caught doing:</p>
<p>1. Sleeping with David Cameron&#8217;s Wife – If it came out that Gordon  Brown had an affair with David Cameron&#8217;s wife.</p>
<p>Verdict: The public saw John Terry in a bad light for his affair so  would this be the end of Gordon Brown if this happened? And maybe even  David Cameron</p>
<p>2. Getting caught by the 10 Downing Street cleaner for snorting  methadrone (M-CAT) the recently banned drug in the toilets. – The  cleaner from 10 Downing Street sells her story to the ‘The Sun&#8217;  newspaper for £150. She had even managed to acquire footage she took on  her mobile phone, the nation demands an explanation.<span id="more-10"></span></p>
<blockquote><p>Furthermore, the  city’s senior residents were also able to enjoy  greater benefits from  the former mayor’s program for the senior  citizens which included  special services, big discounts and other  freebies. The former  environment secretary also voted for the  relocation of the oil depot in  Pandacan which he believes is a serious  environmental and safety  threat.Manila was also provided with a major  facelift as Atienza pushed  forward for the beautification and  enhancement of the city’s old and  deteriorating parks and other tourist  attractions. <a href="/article/6">more&#8230;</a></p></blockquote>
<p>Verdict &#8211; How would Gordon Brown explain this if it happened? Instant  dismissal!</p>
<p>3. Campaigning in Chester throughout the day, at night he is caught  with an escort in his hotel room. – A Chester Escort comes forward saying she had a sordid affair with Gordon Brown  who revealed to her that after a long day on the road he likes nothing  more than being chained up by his penis and whipped with a stiff towel.</p>
<p>Verdict – A cover up story would come out claiming the escort is  lying. He continues with his campaign but is not re-elected.</p>
<blockquote><p>I  suspect it is different ideas depending on who you  talk to. The  people  who are here illegally and are protesting for  reform I suspect  just want  the Federal Government of the US to just  make them all legal  citizens  right now and bring as many people that  they want from their  county to  the US and make them legal citizens as  well, right now.  <a href="../article/8">more…</a></p></blockquote>
<p>4. Discovery that Gordon Brown wears ladies underwear. A recent trip to the  gym Gordon starts changing and to the astonishment of his fellow  members is wearing some black French knickers. He claims they are more  comfortable than his usual Calvin Kleins. Gordon Brown is a laughing  stock, not only in the UK but worldwide.</p>
<p>Verdict: Gordon would probably continue with the election claiming to  be in touch with his feminine side but miserably fail and be classed as  the worst prime minister ever!</p>
<blockquote><p>Why should anyone  from another country follow any US rules or laws,  just enter the US any  way you can and demand to be made a legal  citizen. It apparently is  working for the 12 to 20 million people that  have entered the US  illegally. Immigration reform to the politician in  Washington  apparently means a blanket amnesty to all. If you ask the  politicians  what about the people who are waiting in line to enter  legally they say  they cannot be bothered with that problem. <a href="/article/8">more&#8230;</a></p></blockquote>
<p>Overall Gordon has been naïve and his apology appeared fake but it  could be much worse if any of the above occurred!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I have been trying to figure out just what does  immigration reform mean. The politicians in Washington say we need  immigration reform, the people in this country illegally say we need  immigration reform. Don&#8217;t we already have a immigration policy? We have  laws that say you must apply with the proper authorities in which ever  country you are from to receive permission and proper documentation to  enter in to the United States if you are not a US citizen. <span id="more-8"></span></p>
<blockquote><p>The most eligible person to vote for mayor in  this coming Manila  election,  is one of the most accomplished mayors in Manila’s  rich  political history. The Atienza administration is best described by  the  dramatic transformation in the city’s economy, tourism, peace and  order  and education. He succeeded in addressing almost all the social  needs  of his people by creating programs for housing, healthcare, peace  and  order, education, sports, arts and culture, nature and environment  and  welfare of senior citizens. <a href="/article/6">more&#8230;</a></p></blockquote>
<p>We have laws  that gives the Federal Government the authority to arrest and deport  people who do not follow the immigration rules and enter the United  States illegally without the proper permission or those who over stay  their Visas. So I am confused as to just what the people here illegally  are protesting about. What do they want in immigration reform?</p>
<p>I  suspect it is different ideas depending on who you talk to. The people  who are here illegally and are protesting for reform I suspect just want  the Federal Government of the US to just make them all legal citizens  right now and bring as many people that they want from their county to  the US and make them legal citizens as well, right now. They do not want  any rules or laws, just make them legal citizens.</p>
<blockquote><p>2. Getting caught by the 10 Downing Street cleaner for snorting   methadrone (M-CAT) the recently banned drug in the toilets. – The   cleaner from 10 Downing Street sells her story to the ‘The Sun’   newspaper for £150. She had even managed to acquire footage she took on   her mobile phone, the nation demands an explanation. <a href="/article/10">more&#8230;</a></p></blockquote>
<p>If you ask these  people what about all the people before them that have gone through the  proper channels and entered US legally and are waiting in line to become  US citizens I suspect they would say they don&#8217;t care, those people are  stupid for following the rules and laws of the US. Why should anyone  from another country follow any US rules or laws, just enter the US any  way you can and demand to be made a legal citizen. It apparently is  working for the 12 to 20 million people that have entered the US  illegally. Immigration reform to the politician in Washington  apparently means a blanket amnesty to all. If you ask the politicians  what about the people who are waiting in line to enter legally they say  they cannot be bothered with that problem.</p>
<blockquote><p>The doctor said: “At about 3pm on Friday, November 20, 2009 after he  returned from  the Abuja Central Mosque where he performed the Juma’at  prayers,  President Yar’Adua complained of left sided severe chest pain.   Preliminary medical examinations suggested Acute Pericarditis (an  inflammatory condition of  the coverings of the heart). <a href="/article/3">more&#8230;</a></p></blockquote>
<p>If you ask the  politicians after making millions of illegal aliens legal what about the  next 10, 20, 30 million or more who enter illegally, the politicians  say that won&#8217;t happen, they are going to beef up border security and  enforce it&#8212;&#8212;REALLY, isn&#8217;t that what President Regan said when he  gave blanket amnesty for just a few million last time? Now we have two  or three times the number of illegals than we did during the last round  of amnesty. I see that border enforcement worked well. The only reason  that the Politicians in Washington want to give the millions of people  here illegally amnesty is because the politicians think all these people  are going to vote for them on the next election, to hell with rules and  laws of the US they just want to get reelected.</p>
<p>So where do we  stand. The illegals want amnesty now, the politicians want to give them  amnesty now and we have another 75 million people standing at the  borders wanting to get their feet on US soil and demand amnesty. We are  screwed!!!!</p>
<blockquote><p>Being a true statesman and public servant  serving selflessly for the  good of many, Atienza was able to deliver  what was needed by many of  his impoverished city folks.It was also  during his tenure that the  city’s delivery of social services was at its  best. Atienza outlined  pro-poor programs and priority projects which  have benefited and  enhanced the lives of thousands of impoverished  Manilenos.He was able  to address almost all the social needs of his  people through the  creation of programs for housing, healthcare, peace  and order,  education, sports, arts and culture, nature and environment  and welfare  of senior citizens.<a href="/article/6"> more&#8230;</a></p></blockquote>
<p>There is one other name that can be given to the  illegal aliens that are protesting and demanding amnesty, squatters. It  is not a bad plan when you think about it, just get as many people as  you can in to another country and knowing that the countries government  is not going to do anything about it, just take over the country, No  armed conflict, no shots fired&#8211;the perfect plan.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>In the case of former Manila mayor Lito  Atienza he had both. One of the well-loved leaders of the nation&#8217;s  capital, the former mayor was successful in backing up his strong words  with actions.Staying committed to his words and fulfilling his promise  of giving his beloved Manilenos with a city that they can truly call  their own and which they will care for, Lito Atienza has accomplished  more things than any of his immediate predecessors.</p>
<p>One of the  most accomplished mayors in Manila&#8217;s rich political history, Lito  Atienza&#8217;s profile as city mayor is decorated with numerous completed  projects and other countless achievements no other city mayor of Manila  has accomplished. <span id="more-6"></span></p>
<blockquote><p>Now we have two  or three times the number of illegals than we did  during the last round  of amnesty. I see that border enforcement worked  well. The only reason  that the Politicians in Washington want to give  the millions of people  here illegally amnesty is because the  politicians think all these people  are going to vote for them on the  next election, to hell with rules and  laws of the US they just want to  get reelected. So where do we  stand. The illegals want amnesty now, the politicians  want to give them  amnesty now and we have another 75 million people  standing at the  borders wanting to get their feet on US soil and demand  amnesty. We are  screwed!!!! <a href="/article/8">more&#8230;</a></p></blockquote>
<p>No one has to go too far in assessing Atienza&#8217;s  performance as the city mayor of Manila for an unprecedented three  consecutive three-year term, we just have to look back at how Manila  looked and the living of conditions its residents were three years ago.  The Atienza administration is best described by the dramatic  transformation in the city&#8217;s economy,  peace and order and education. Moreover, it was during Atienza&#8217;s term  when many poor families were uplifted from poverty and enjoyed improved  living conditions.</p>
<blockquote><p>Chief Physician to the President, Dr. Salisu Banye, has said in a   statement entitled, “President Yar’Adua’s Health Condition”, the   President, who is responding to treatment for his ailment, was diagnosed   of having “acute pericarditis.” The doctor said: “At about 3pm on Friday, November 20, 2009 after he  returned from  the Abuja Central Mosque where he performed the Juma’at  prayers,  President Yar’Adua complained of left sided severe chest pain.   Preliminary medical examinations suggested Acute Pericarditis (an  inflammatory condition of  the coverings of the heart). <a href="/article/3">more&#8230;</a></p></blockquote>
<p>Being a true statesman and public servant  serving selflessly for the good of many, Atienza was able to deliver  what was needed by many of his impoverished city folks.It was also  during his tenure that the city&#8217;s delivery of social services was at its  best. Atienza outlined pro-poor programs and priority projects which  have benefited and enhanced the lives of thousands of impoverished  Manilenos.He was able to address almost all the social needs of his  people through the creation of programs for housing, healthcare, peace  and order, education, sports, arts and culture, nature and environment  and welfare of senior citizens.</p>
<blockquote><p>3. Campaigning in Chester throughout the day, at night he is caught   with an escort in his hotel room. – A Chester Escort comes forward  saying she had a sordid affair with Gordon Brown  who revealed to her  that after a long day on the road he likes nothing  more than being  chained up by his penis and whipped with a stiff towel.<a href="/article/10"> more&#8230;</a></p></blockquote>
<p>Atienza created livelihood  programs and employment opportunities for the unemployed by bringing the  city&#8217;s economy back into life. He created training programs and  vocational courses intended for the out of school youth and unemployed  to provide them with a decent livelihood and a stable source of income.  Atienza together with other non-government organizations have provided  affordable housing and land acquisition programs for the homeless, which  have benefited a lot of the city&#8217;s poor residents and even the middle  class.</p>
<blockquote><p>The city&#8217;s healthcare services and public hospitals were  also improved during his term. Atienza added more funds for the city&#8217;s  public hospitals and health centers which allowed them to purchase new  medical equipment and medicines for enhanced healthcare services and to  be able to provide free medicines to the city&#8217;s impoverished residents.  Atienza was able to bring free medical services and medicines to  far-flung areas and barangays. We have laws  that gives the Federal  Government the authority to arrest and deport  people who do not follow  the immigration rules and enter the United  States illegally without the  proper permission or those who over stay  their Visas. So I am  confused as to just what the people here illegally  are protesting  about. What do they want in immigration reform? I  suspect it is different ideas depending on who you talk to. The  people  who are here illegally and are protesting for reform I suspect  just want  the Federal Government of the US to just make them all legal  citizens  right now and bring as many people that they want from their  county to  the US and make them legal citizens as well, right now. <a href="/article/8">more&#8230;</a></p></blockquote>
<p>Manila during Atienza&#8217;s term also  experienced the best peace and order situation in many years. In support  of Manila&#8217;s budding athletes and promising talents, Atienza launched  sports-culminating activities and provided free training and <a id="KonaLink1" href="http://www.articlesbase.com/politics-articles/lito-atienza-and-the-things-that-he-has-done-as-manila-mayor-2260261.html#" target="undefined"><span style="color: #009900;"> </span></a>programs to harness their skills and talents.In addition, Atienza also  extended free access to education and school supplies to Manila&#8217;s public  school students.Manila&#8217;s colleges and universities were also  refurbished during his leadership, as part of his efforts in providing  quality and affordable college education to Manilenos.</p>
<p>Furthermore, the  city&#8217;s senior residents were also able to enjoy greater benefits from  the former mayor&#8217;s program for the senior citizens which included  special services, big discounts and other freebies. The former  environment secretary also voted for the relocation of the oil depot in  Pandacan which he believes is a serious environmental and safety  threat.Manila was also provided with a major facelift as Atienza pushed  forward for the beautification and enhancement of the city&#8217;s old and  deteriorating parks and other tourist attractions.</p>
<p>One of the most  remarkable projects of the former mayor is the improvement of the city&#8217;s  bay area commonly known as the &#8220;Baywalk&#8221;, which has allowed city  residents, as well as local and foreign<a id="KonaLink2" href="http://www.articlesbase.com/politics-articles/lito-atienza-and-the-things-that-he-has-done-as-manila-mayor-2260261.html#" target="undefined"><span style="color: #009900;"> </span></a> to  enjoy alfresco dining and listening to fine music while watching the  world-renowned Manila Bay sunset.</p>
<p>Atienza&#8217;s unsurpassed  accomplishments during his term make as the most eligible person to vote  for mayor in this coming <a href="http://litoatienzablog.blogspot.com">Manila  elections</a>. If he is able to <a id="KonaLink3" href="http://www.articlesbase.com/politics-articles/lito-atienza-and-the-things-that-he-has-done-as-manila-mayor-2260261.html#" target="undefined"></a>another three-year term in this coming Manila elections, Manila along  with its residents are set to enjoy another three glorious years under  the leadership.</p>
<p>The most eligible person to vote for mayor in  this coming Manila election,  is one of the most accomplished mayors in Manila&#8217;s  rich political history. The Atienza administration is best described by  the dramatic transformation in the city&#8217;s economy, tourism, peace and  order and education. He succeeded in addressing almost all the social  needs of his people by creating programs for housing, healthcare, peace  and order, education, sports, arts and culture, nature and environment  and welfare of senior citizens.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Back in November of 2009, Yar&#8217;Adua went to Saudi Arabia for some  treatment of inflammation around his heart after he was suffering from chest pains. At that time, he was diagnosed with having acute pericarditis. After  going to Saudi Arabia, Yar&#8217;Audu has been our of public eye ever since  then. He is most known for giving amnesty to armed militants from the  Niger Delta region. <span id="more-3"></span></p>
<blockquote><p>I  suspect it is different ideas depending on who you talk to.

It  apparently is  working for the 12 to 20 million people that have entered  the US  illegally. <a href="/article/8">more&#8230;</a></p></blockquote>
<p>Late Wednesday evening, President Barak Obama made a statement  offering his sympathy to the Nigerian people as well as Yar&#8217;Adua&#8217;s  family. This is what Obama&#8217;s statement read &#8220;President Yar&#8217;Adua worked  to promote peace and stability in Africa through his support of Nigerian  peacekeeping efforts as well as his strong criticism of undemocratic  actions in the region. He was committed to creating lasting peace and  prosperity within Nigeria&#8217;s own borders, and continuing that work will  be an important part of honoring his legacy.&#8221;</p>
<blockquote><p>Atienza together with other non-government organizations have  provided  affordable housing and land acquisition programs for the  homeless, which  have benefited a lot of the city’s poor residents and  even the middle  class.

<p>On 23 November 2009, Yar&#8217;Adua was flown to King Faisal in  Saudi Arabia, where he was diagnosed as suffering from pericarditis.</p>
<p>Chief Physician to the President, Dr. Salisu Banye, has said in a  statement entitled, &#8220;President Yar&#8217;Adua&#8217;s Health Condition&#8221;, the  President, who is responding to treatment for his ailment, was diagnosed  of having &#8220;acute pericarditis.&#8221;</p>
<p>The doctor said: &#8220;At about 3pm on Friday, November 20, 2009 after he returned from  the Abuja Central Mosque where he performed the Juma&#8217;at prayers,  President Yar&#8217;Adua complained of left sided severe chest pain.

<p>This is certainly a sad time for the Nigerian people during the  tragic loss of their dear president. Many condolences to the Nigerian  people and to his Umaru Yar&#8217;Audu&#8217;s family. May he rest in peace.</p>
