江泽民为首的中共集权发动国家机器对修炼真善忍的法轮功学员开始了残酷的迫害，每
年的7月20日左右，世界各地的法轮功学员都举行各种反迫害活动，许多西方的政要和
各界正义人士都站出来支持法轮功学员，谴责中共的迫害。今年在法轮功反迫害十二周
年之际，多位美国国会参议员和众议员纷纷发信声援法轮功学员，表彰法轮功学员遵循
真善忍的精神，要求中共立即停止迫害。
克罗卡多州联邦参议员马克‧尤代尔（Mark Udall）在信中表示，一如既往地强

在政坛女性人才辈出的情况下，女性入主白宫的机会也大增。媒体及政治分析家娇安?班伯格(Joanne Bamberger)在母亲节前夕预测，历来第一位入主白宫的女性，很可能是有幼儿的年轻母亲。她说，国会参院现年45岁的中国通、纽约州民主党国会参议员陆天娜(Kirsten Gillibrand)，以及现年42岁的华盛顿州共和党国会众议员卡西?罗吉斯(Cathy McMorris Rodgers)，都有可能在2016年出马竞选总统。
班伯格12日在有线电视新闻网站(CNN)撰文做此预测。她强调，她的预测不是狂想，而是根据许多政坛女性的人口统计资料和家庭状况分析的结果。她说，目前的政坛新秀女性，比她们的前辈在更年轻的时候步入政界，而且等到30余岁或40岁才生育孩子或领养孩子，2016年是风云际会选出一位年轻母亲入主白宫的理想时机。

Doubts About Cuomo’s Support of Gay Rights
As a landmark gay marriage bill hurtled toward an uncertain vote last year,
New York’s Democratic leaders scrambled to corral support. Gov. David A.
Paterson delivered impassioned speeches, Senator Kirsten E. Gillibrand
headlined a giant rally and City Council Speaker Christine C. Quinn shuttled
back and forth to Albany to lobby lawmakers.

8231;班伯格(Joanne Bamberger)在母亲节前夕预测，历来第一位入主白宫的女性，很
可能是有幼儿的年轻母亲。她说，国会参院现年45岁的中国通、纽约州民主党国会参议
员陆天娜(Kirsten Gillibrand)，以及现年42岁的华盛顿州共和党国会众议员卡西&#
8231;罗吉斯(Cathy McMorris Rodgers)，都有可能在2016年出马竞选总统。
班伯格12日在有线电视新闻网站(CNN)撰文做此预测。她强调，她的预测不是狂想，而
是根据许多政坛女性的人口统计资料和家庭状况分析的结果。她说，目前的政坛新秀女
性，比她们的前辈在更年轻的时候步入政界，而且等到30余岁或40岁才生育孩子或领养
孩子，2016年是风云际会选出一位年轻母亲入主白宫的理想时机。
班伯格用前国会众院议长南西‧波洛西(Nancy Pelosi)为例指出，波洛西进入国
会众院时为47岁，当时她的五个孩子中已有四个离家念大学，还有一个念高中，那是当

法轮功学员在纽约中领馆前举行烛光夜悼
十二年前的这一天，中共当局动用全部国家机器，发动了对上亿修炼“真善忍”的法轮

实的已有三千四百二十八名法轮功学员被迫害致死。
夜悼前，法轮功学员举行了约一个小时的集会，呼吁“解体中共，制止迫害”。
全球退党服务中心主席易蓉女士在集会中说: 截至今天，退党网站上公开发表退出中共

Candidate Office Amount
Romney, Mitt (R) $5,047,797
Obama, Barack (D) $2,464,605
Gillibrand, Kirsten (D-NY) Senate $1,398,945
Corker, Bob (R-TN) Senate $1,195,864
Boehner, John (R-OH) House $1,159,137
你说得奥巴马比第二名多，是把给民主党竞选大会的 12 million也算进去了
这12 million并不是都用在总统选举上
共和党内部还没有人胜出，明年春天胜出后，自然就会给共和党的竞选大会募捐 |

Thanks to the solid new research and recent revelations in Peter Schweizer's
book Throw Them All Out and the subsequent coverage on 60 Minutes, we have
concrete proof to explain how members of Congress accumulate wealth at a
rate astonishingly faster than the rest of Americans and have stock
portfolios that outperform even the best hedge-fund managers'. (Full
disclosure: Schweizer is employed by my political action committee as a
foreign policy adviser.)

NY的Kirsten Gillibrand可能出来，像Hillary的reincarnation。
Deval Patrick继承O8.
初选又是黑男拼白女，白女惨败。 |
