Georgian Constitution Amended

Georgian President Mikheil Saakashvili signed amendments to the
country's Constitution on Wednesday, which reduce his authority and
tip the balance of power toward the prime minister.

The Georgian parliament passed the amendments, which include stripping
the president of the right to appoint or dismiss the government
without parliamentary approval, on March 25.

"Today [on Wednesday] the Georgian president signed amendments to the
Constitution, they will be published and will come into force later
today," Parliament Speaker David Usupashvili said.

The amendments also ban the dissolution of parliament during the
period that starts in May, the month before the forthcoming
parliamentary elections, and ends with the elected president's
inauguration.

The signing marks a new victory for billionaire Prime Minister Bidzina
Ivanishvili, whose Georgian Dream coalition has been locked in a power
struggle with Saakashvili's United National Movement after winning the
parliamentary elections last October.

The signing of the document "means that the Georgian president won't
be tempted to use his right to dissolve parliament, and the parliament
will be able to function without additional stress," Usupashvili said.

Obama is the richest man in the world

I hold you to the words you are writing. You blamed Bush for the balanced budget disappearing. I don't know if you are capable of holding a memory that happen yesterday. You have forgotten that Bush was a war President, two wars in his term; Katrina & Rita, three major hurricanes that destroyed Florida and the gulf coast, Annual fires ravaging California that dependent on Bush to declare those as disaster areas too. Then the Democrats protest any move by the Republican to reform the Fannie Mae and Freddi Mac because of policy created by Democrats on home buyers that had no income. Greenlining was opposed by Democrats. Bush fought the good wars, maintained the economy until Obama and his handlers created a hoax about worst economy, and unemployment in 5%. People like you believed his lies, about high debts in $500 billion and worst unemployment and depression since 1932!   In less than a year Obama committed $3 trillion debts, before his term is over projected to $27 trillion, ...

Buried Treasures in Bohol Philippines

Written by Joe Espiritu       Four persons died in a treasure hunting accident last week. They died for nothing. Many had lost their shirts in the venture, the propensity for Filipinos to get rich quick attribute to the treasure hunting mania. The sad part is that only the ignorant venture on the search, those in the know, being sure that nothing will come out of the effort would not think of investing money, time and effort – this time lives – in a fruitless enterprise.        There had been stories of people getting rich uncovering treasure troves in unlikely places. Most stories are false. Ancient graves of archeological and anthropological value had been desecrated by treasure hunters. They had found nothing. Those people may have struck it rich but not from some hidden riches. Contrary to what other people say, there are no buried treasures in Bohol . If there had been, they were unearthed years ago.         If one ...
