		<description><![CDATA[Farcebook is &quot;in bed&quot; with the corrupt muslim, who is currently trespassing in the white house; and trying to convince anyone with a joy behar IQ level that he&#039;s really the constitutionally legitimate president.

That muslim and &quot;Mark Zucked Up&quot; are both worthless pieces of obama (same difference); and Farcebook is a freaken&#039; joke.  

Just like AOL of years ago - It has peaked and now it&#039;s as worthless as Dancing With The Hasbeens or American Idle. (or The View)



And judging from the other&#039;s comments in this post, I am not alone in my assessment of the now useless and more and more unwanted joke that&#039;s referred to as Farcebook (because I&#039;d have been censored if I call it what I call it, in real life, off line conversations).



BUT, if the toilet paper fits  .  .  .]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I have closed my Facebook account 14 month ago. It was extremely time consuming, and personally I disliked they often changes, not to mention privacy policies. I will never open Facebook account again. After I closed it, I felt great, and had much more time on my hands. I have a Twitter account and I am very pleased that on Twitter everything is &#039;short and sweet&#039;.  No more than 30 min per day is needed to spend on social network in my opinion. However, I still prefer email as favorite way of keeping in touch.]]></description>
