Im not sure what to think, but it seems evident from this video that these turkeys know that Barack Obama will be our next president and they are hoping that their enthusiasm will help one of them win a presidential pardon come this November. Too bad they dont understand that President Bush will still be in office. Maybe they should read more.
In which Chris responds to videos! And then does original poetry!! Wrought From Heart By: Chris Kessler I was born from the womb that is existence. But, none of this makes any sense because--I am 18 stars from the present past. But, that isn't to say that I am the last bastard of a fast dying breed. I was cast from soul and wrought from heart. I was plated with gold this purely human kind of art can not part...from....self. When birthed from stars, past heaven and mars, a wealth is bestowed that can never be dubbed "ours." A vision is planted in cerebral gardens, a vision without fraud or presidential pardons. A vision of a fetus wrought from hip hop and thus the beat can not stop. No, not this beat. Not the beat of one million and one drums that have come to beat your skull with subliminal thrums and hums. Now this is the army, drums, not bombs, with pressed together palms. Peace is everlasting so let this beat keep blasting your brain in, Let me shake your skin and break your perceptions. We are all wrought from heart, No exceptions. Shel Silverstein=PWND

This short silent film was made by my Jewish new found friend Adin Weiner whom I met outside a Jerusalem Hotel in 2007 and requested me to play the character of a foreign worker in Israel. A lady (Jo) whom I met at the very day of the shooting played the role of a care-giver which according to the storyline-- I fell in love at first sight.:-) I asked Adin what was the purpose of the film? And he told me that he wanted to show the struggles of the foreign workers in the Holy Land who have employers that are quite demanding; as well as the pressures coming from the immigration police... But as for me... being a disciple of Jesus Christ and a missionary; I took this rare opportunity to broadcast a message of hope to all fellow-Filipinos who are out there in the world, who are having the same struggles as everyone else. Most OFW's have left their respective families back home to work for a living so as to survive and to send the needed funds and sustain their loved ones. They all face trials and temptations of which many unfortunately succumb to, thus breaking the trust resulting in many broken homes. If you noticed that the 2 characters in this film seem to have fallen for each other at that Jerusalem Park, but the woman was caught by the immigration police the very day they were about to meet. But that unfortunate incident was for the good of both because in real life-- both have their own respective families back in the Philippines! What if the police didn't arrive on time? They would have fallen into sin and broke not only their homes but also the heart of God who gave us His 10 Commandments. Have you ever broken the 10 Commandments as found in Exodus 20:1-17? Let's have a reality-check, and see if we're guilty or not. 1.Have you ever made God 2nd in your life? 2.Have you ever trusted or served any 3.Have you ever used God's Name in vain? 4.Have you always observed God's day of rest? 5.Have you ever dishonored those in authority? 6.Have you ever hated anyone? 7.Have you ever looked with lust? 8.Have you ever stolen anything? 9.Have you ever gossiped or told a lie? 10.Have you ever envied or coveted? Everyone of us sinned but we don't have to stay in our sins... God gave us His answer in 1John 2:1-2 "I am writing this to you... so that you will not sin, but if anyone does sin, we have someone who pleads with the Father on our behalf-- Jesus Christ the Righteous One. And Christ Himself is the means by which our sins are forgiven, and not our sins only, but also the sins of everyone." Good News Bible All of us has a pending case before the supreme court of heaven and the penalty of sin is death... even eternal death... according to James 2:10 "Whoever breaks one commandment is guilty of breaking them all"GNB Former Philippine President Joseph "Erap" Estrada who was found guilty and was convicted was offered a "full, free and unconditional" pardon by our incumbent President Gloria Macapagal Arroyo but he needed to accept the presidential pardon unconditionally too... of which he accepted and now he is a free man after being in jail for 6 years. In the same way, if you are in the prison of you own sin, God is offering a "full, free and unconditional pardon" but you need to accept it by faith by repenting of your sins and accepting Jesus Christ as your only Defense-Lawyer-- Savior and LORD. 1John 1:9 promised, "But if we confess our sins to God, He will keep His promise and do what is right; He will forgive us our sins and purify us from all wrongdoings." GNB Why not stop for awhile right now and talk to God honestly from your heart... confess your sins to Him and ask God to forgive you by the virtue of the blood of Christ who gave His life just for you. I will assure you... as what had happened to everyone who returned to God-- they all received a new life and a new start.
Ron Paul promises to end the drug war and free non-violent prisoners by way of presidential pardon! Join me, take back the Republic and the Constitution.
Hello on this Wednesday, December 12, 2007. I'm Kristin Volk with a UPI Headline Update. Democratic Presidential candidate Barack Obama has inched ahead in New Hampshire while the popularity of his rival, Senator Hillary Clinton has slightly dropped. That's according to a poll released today. The shift comes a month before the first presidential primary. Clinton fell 5 percentage points since a previous survey in November. Obama has gained 8 percentage points. Meanwhile, the poll shows that Republican Presidential hopeful Mike Huckabee has yet to catch fire in New Hampshire despite a dramatic jump in some Iowa and national surveys. President Bush's list of pardons doesn't include his vice-president's former top aide, Scooter Libby. Libby was convicted in the case of the leaked of a CIA operative. Yesterday, Bush issued pardons to 29 convicts, including carjackers and drug dealers, and reduced the prison sentence of one more. The move is an end-of-the-year presidential tradition. In July, Bush commuted Libby's 2 and a half-year sentence, sparing him from serving any prison time. A new poll shows more Americans are worried about the economy rather than the war in Iraq. Fifty-seven percent believe the nation is in a recession. That's the first time in more than four years that a majority believes that. The economy is now the biggest issue in the presidential campaign. Following the economy, Poll respondents said health care and illegal immigration were of concern. Rescuers are searching for survivors after two car bombs ripped through Algeria's capital yesterday. The attack leveled government and U.N. buildings. Officials say at least 26 are dead, but the actual toll is still unclear. At least 10 U.N. staffers were among those killed. Rescuers are working around the clock to try to pull people who are trapped. Al-Qaeda militant have claimed responsibility for the attack. That's all for now. Check out our special series called "Discovering Africa" on upi.com. For all of us at UPI, have a nice day.

This video illustrates an excerpt from the controversial yet definitive "Clinton Liebrary Book" on the relationship between presidential pardons and funding. The excerpt illustrated by this video explains why Bill Clinton pardoned Susan McDougal but not Hillary's old law-partner, Webster Hubbell.
