President Obama's trickery
06-11-2008 14:34
It is understandable that after 8 years of the most odious rapacious vile and corrupt administration in American history people would be very eager to see change.

Why I Moved From Seattle Washington

The Destroyed Reputation of The United States Federal Government (Part Two)I lived in Seattle Washington for 15 years. I worked on computer automated design and drafting for twenty years.

Then I got a low rent transitional housing apartment in downtown Seattle - at the Glenn Hotel.
