		<description><![CDATA[HSPI Releases Task Force Report on the Future of the Homeland Security Council. The report is the product of a bipartisan Task Force composed of former senior federal officials, practitioners at the state and local levels, and subject matter experts in the area of homeland security policymaking. Co-chaired by HSPI Director Frank Cilluffo and Deputy Director Daniel Kaniewski, the Task Force identified and reviewed arguments for and against merging the Homeland Security Council and National Security Council, and also assessed crucial factors that merit consideration whether or not there is a merger. It was just recently The Contemplation uncovered that Bradley Schreiber, a former senior advisor at the U.S. Department of Homeland Security, has opened his own Homeland Security Solutions, LLC (Read More . . .). A senior advisor jumping ship? It looks like Schreiber jumped into his own business only to watch the Department of Homeland Security blend with a the National Security council. This is not only smart, but both Homeland Security and National Security Council are both redundent. One Problem (of many) Bush&#8217;s Homeland Security Didn&#8217;t Fix Homeland Security is a joke.  We already have in place the FBI, CIA, INS and Department of State, which with [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[While the U.S. Government wrestles with the details of President Obama&#8217;s proposed stimulus package, a mystery man is moving quickly to give locals the money they need. Today, from 10am to 4pm at Union Station, Bailout Bill, Founder of BailoutBooth.com, will be giving away $50,000 in cash to anyone and everyone who walks up and explains why they need a bailout. &#8220;People need money and we&#8217;re here to give it to them,&#8221; says Bailout Bill, Founder of BailoutBooth.com. &#8220;Times are tough and the government is taking a long time to get their act together, so while they&#8217;re letting politics get in the way of helping people, we&#8217;re here to give bailouts to as many people as possible.&#8221; Will the Stimulus Bill Money Reach Your Pocketbook? NO What is the actual impact of the Stimulus? You will not feel it!  This is not about who is in office (I wanted Barr) it is about decision making.  President Bush bailed out the corporations in hopes of maintaining productivity, jobs and profit . . . it didn&#8217;t work.  Layoff and unemployment is up and will rise until the United States understands one simple thing : Any country that doesn&#8217;t produce any product that is wanted/needed/dependent globally [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Here is a basic overview of the stimulus plan. You will notice some are not going to affect or stimulate the economy at all, just a bunch of pork. First-time homebuyers purchasing a home before Dec. 1 will receive a US$8,000 tax credit. While this would in theory support the housing industry now, the tax benefit will not be realized until 2010, making it likely that potential homebuyers will wait until the last minute before making a purchasing decision. The US$1,000 child tax credit will be extended to more taxpayers who typically do not earn enough to pay taxes, and so normally would not benefit from the credit. College students or their parents will receive a tax credit of up to US$2,500 on tuition and related expenses in 2009 and 2010. Tax credits will be distributed on a weekly basis, at about US$13 a week per wage earner starting in June. Over the course of 2009, single tax payers will receive US$400 and couples US$800. Americans drawing unemployment checks will receive an extra US$25 per check. A temporary assistance emergency fund for needy families will be set up in the amount of US$3 billion. The first US$2,400 of unemployment benefits [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Here is the new Bush Hippocratic Oath I swear to fulfill, to the best of my ability and judgment, this covenant:  I will respect the hard-won scientific gains of those physicians in whose steps I walk, and gladly share such knowledge as is mine with those who are to follow. I will apply, for the benefit of the sick, all measures [that] are required, avoiding those twin traps of overtreatment and therapeutic nihilism. I will remember that there is art to medicine as well as science, and that warmth, sympathy, and understanding may outweigh the surgeon&#8217;s knife or the chemist&#8217;s drug. I will not be ashamed to say &#8220;I know not,&#8221; nor will I fail to call in my colleagues when the skills of another are needed for a patient&#8217;s recovery. I will respect the privacy of my patients, for their problems are not disclosed to me that the world may know. Most especially must I tread with care in matters of life and death. If it is given me to save a life, all thanks. But it may also be within my power to take a life; this awesome responsibility must be faced with great humbleness and awareness of [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Obama&#8217;s campaign was about change. Some changes will take more than policy, political hand-holding, but some are quite simple.  It is about time the United States has a President that appreciates and understand technology.  I personally think that Obama should have put up a fight to keep his Blackberry . . . Four years is a long time. By the time Obama leaves office his personal technology will be outdated.  It will be equivalent to President Bush getting a cassette player on exit. SMS will be an essential tool in keeping in touch with his family . . . I would love to follow an Obama Twitter! If Blackberry can&#8217;t protect the President . . . Blackberry can&#8217;t protect you. White House Changes I Want To See Public Transportation Washington DC Metropolitan area has an excellent public transportation system, although the hours are limited to 5:00 am &#8211; 12:00 am (M-Th), 5:00 am &#8211; 3:00 am (F), and 7:00 am &#8211; 3:00 am (S &#38; S).  The Metro should be opened 24 hours a day.  The White House should require all (except those who require a security detail) to use public transportation.  The US Government supplements all employees who use [...]]]></description>
