 RW>  Brer Bart Verhaeghe wrote to Brer Roy Witt about US bashing?:

 BV>> year's. local elections are every 6 year's.

 RW> Less terms are much better. We have elections every 2 years, sometimes
 RW> every year...

 yes this would indeed be better.

 BV>>  but the House of Representatives can slow down the decisions of the,
 BV>>  White House and the Senate?

 RW> Yes and vice versa. The HR has sent various legislation proposals to the
 RW> Senate, whose majority leader refuses to even look at, which means they
 RW> don't get to the Senate floor for a vote. What passes one house must also
 RW> pass the other house before it is sent to the Prez for his signature or
 RW> veto. If he vetoes that, it goes back to the legislature for another vote,
 RW> which can make the legislation law, with a 2/3 majority vote. If the Prez
 RW> signs legislation sent to him, it becomes law.

 RW> IMO, they could do away with this procedure and only meet every other year
 RW> for 6 months maximum...we already have enough laws to choke an elephant.

 I begin more to like your system.
 because your President have somthing to say in this country.
 here also we have laws to choke a elephant but here the most laws are made,
 by the EU and must be used by the country's in the EU.

 BV>>  don't break my mouth open about the socialists.
 BV>>  they only know 1 word : Taxes.

 RW> If I had my way, they'd only know what my foot feels like as their ass
 RW> dongle.

 you can try to but the problem is they will put you in jail for that.
 they see it as a terrorist attack.

 like this 1 time Bill Gates got a cake in his face in Brussels.
 ooooooow this one I will never forget I have been laughing for many day's.

 BV>>  it mean's that they choose freely this senators.
 BV>>  it can be someone from the royal family.

 RW> Oh, that would go over like a lead baloon here.

 Like our prince Laurant, he is a senate member.
 he is a real pain in our ass.

 BV>>  no it is a big problem because they alway's fight for votes.

 RW> That's what I meant...if they cannot communicate in one common language,
 RW> they will have problems.

 sure but as long we are not split this will alway's be a problem.

 BV>>  yep here also if the local goverment get's the wrong mayor we get,
 BV>>  higher taxes.

 RW> We have term limits here (Texas). If a mayor goes rogue, we can replace
 RW> him/her with a recall election or just wait for the next elecion two years
 RW> from now.

 it's good that you can replace him because 2 year's is a good term.
 the problem here is that it's 6 years.
 and 6 year's is a very long time.

 BV>>  than i'm not speaking if we get the wrong local goverment and the,
 BV>>  wrong federal goverment, because this are other taxes.

 RW> Yes...gov't loves taxes.

 we don't like it :(

 BV>>  they don't have notting to say.
 BV>>  but we must pay them to do notthing.

 RW> I see that the king of Belgium asked for a raise... 8^)

 yes they ask but they have refused it.

with best regards,
Bart
