Randy Moss Waived

The Vikings waived Moss for the simply fact that he simply didnt want to play for us anymore and wanted to play with his former teammates from the New England Patriots. He gave a press confrience saying this, he was very disrespectful to the vikings staff and team. He said he was not going to give anymore press confrences, on that same day the news media found about a outrage he had at a local restaurant. He told the owner that he wouldnt feed his food to his dog and that was the food he had to eat when he was poor. He was picked up by the Tennese Titans 2 days after he was waived.
 In my opinion it sticks that he isnt playing for us because he is a very good player. He made our team really shine, but if that is the way he is going to act then he can leave. We dont need anymore negative press for the vikings. He is too unpreditable to have as a player. You cant have a teammate going off on an owner just because of the food that he gave him. He never even took a bit of the meal. He needs to grow up and he would make a lot of teams proud to have him.

Iraq Church Slaughter

On October 31st Al Qaeda members went to a church in Baghdad and took all church members as hostages. When the police stormed the church Al Qaeda set off 2 suicide vests killing several people inside the church. Other members killed all the hostages inside. There was a total of 58 deaths. Several more were wounded, including some going to the hospital without hands and legs. This was a christian church in Baghdad. They had wanted the release of all members of Al Qaeda in Prison.

This is a terrible thing for the simple fact that they killed everyone that they could. These people just being normal people going to christian church and then getting slaughtered. This is the stupid stuff that makes me want to join the army and go kick some ass. But in the end of the day that isnt going to help because it is a religous belief on their part. This is forcing the good people in Iraq to leave the country. I think we will be in Iraq for a long long time yet.

Drug smuggling tunnels

30 tons of weed was found in a warehouse in San Diego. This smuggling operation brought this weed in from Cal./Mex. border through a 600 yard tunnel with lighting and ventalation and also with a railing system. From this bust it lead back to Tijuane Mex. Although 30 tons seems like a lot, they said that 105 tons was busted within the last month. They also said that in the past four years 75 tunnels were discovered along the border of cal. and Arizona. There have been 125 tunnels found on these same borders since 1990 and only one tunnel found on the Canadian/U.S. border. The U.S. created a task force called the U.S. Border Task Force. This task force uses robots to find the newly dug tunnels. This task force was created in 2006 because of this problem.

As you can see that most of the problems are found in Mexico this is why we need to pass more laws. I think that the gov. should put more money into the task force. We should work with the mexican police more so they can tell us info and we can tell them. I think that we could control this very well.

New Arizona Immigration Law

In August of this year the gov. of Phoenix, Arizona, Jan Brewwer signed a state of Arizona Immigration Law. This law will allow law enforcement to stop and detain illgal immigrants if they dont have there green card, and proper identification. It also allows them to deport back to Mexico. Almost immediately, President Obama and the national press criticized this new law and said it needed major improvements. There were several riots and ralleys because of this new bill. The Hispanics said that they are getting harrased and the discriminating is going to far. They said it was racial and ethnic profiling. Jan Brewwer was once again voted in on the gov. race, which means that at least the Arizona people agreed with the law.

In my Opinon I think it is great that this law passed. If they come into our country, then they can put up with our laws. If they dont like it then stay home. It is proven that smugglers are bringing drugs into Arizona and with the drug running comes the violence. They take our jobs and are making our unemployment go way up. I think it is awsome that this law passed and we should pass more.

Republicans are taking over!

The Nov. 2nd election results were not a big suprise to a lot of people. The House of rep. needed 39 seats to take the majority lead. They accomplished this by gaining rep. 60 seats. This has been the biggest upset since the 1948 election. The Republicans have yet to control the senate. They have only picked up 6 additional seats so far. There are quite a few states that have to do recounts. This articlebelieves that 75% of people are not happy with the way the country is being run. They are not happy with the high unemployment rate, the economy and the health care bill. The reason the way they voted this way is because of the tea party movement. John Boehner is now the Speaker of the House, John being a republican.

My opinon is that we should get more republicans in the senate and house. We have not yet seen what they can do when it is mostly repulbicans. It would be great to see what they could do. I agree with the tea party movement and i strongly support them. We need change in gov. People are simply looking for jobs and looking to turn the economy around.
