Abismo fiscal estadounidense

Recortar el ya débil gasto social, no recortar los gastos de Defensa (o warfare), no incrementar los impuestos a rentas superiores a $250 mil, negociar la subida  de impuestos para rentas inferiores a esa cantidad (la gran mayoría de estadounidenses) es la propuesta republicana para salir de la crisis estadounidense.

La incertidumbre debe resolverse antes del 31 de diciembre. La ya debilitada hegemonía estadounidense está en juego.

Counseling - After you complete the workshop, bring your certificate of completion and meet with a counselor. I chose to go to the same agency that gave me the voucher, because they already knew...

Let's do weeweechu....a merry Christmas wish

It's a romantic full moon, when Pedro said, "Hey, mamacita, let's do Weeweechu." Oh no, not now, let's look at the moon!" said Rosita. Oh, c'mon baby, let's you and I do Weeweechu. I love you and it's the perfect time," Pedro begged. "But I wanna just hold your hand and watch the moon." replied Rosita. Please, corazoncito, just once, do Weeweechu with me." Rosita looked at Pedro and said, "OK, one time, we'll do Weeweechu." Pedro grabbed his guitar and they both sang..... "Weeweechu a Merry Christmas, Weeweechu a Merry Chris tmas, Weeweechu a Merry Christmas, and a Happy New Year." MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!!! I just got this from a colleague, Feliz Navidad!!
