And in preparation for the possibility that Americans might rebel at the debt and taxes incurred by their government, they've just passed a new law that will stop your capital -- or at least a good portion of it -- at the border, should you decide to leave.

Murtha slandering the troops again...... how shocking. He's also lying about the benchmarks reached by the Iraqis. America is still waiting for his apology for calling our innocent troops cold-blooded murderers. What a disgusting, vile individual. Oh, he's a Big Supporter of Barack Obama and says he'll do what he can to help get him elected... no surprise there.

She wore her first set of false eyelashes at eight, and her beauty treatments cost £300 a month. A sick abuse of an 11-year-old? 'No', insists Sasha's mother, 'I just want her to be famous...' At 11, Sasha Bennington is too young to remember the days when Jordan was just a country and being branded 'fake' was something to be ashamed of.
