House pass Health Care Bill

November 8th, 2009


Today, President Barack Obama is glorifying the House of Representative's decision to pass the health care reform bill. Now all that he needs to do is get the bill passed by the Senate. Won't that be fun. The President lucked out this time with the House getting 220-215 vote, but when its time for the Senate to vote he is going to have to really stick the point to them. Due to having many Republicans and moderate Democrats, the Presidents health care plan is really on the fence now. If the President wants to get this bill passed, now is the time to really pull out the big guns to win over the Senate. I believe that this time the President won't be so lucky, I honestly believe that the Senate is going to crush the President's bill. As much as I love the President and what he is doing for America, he is going down. And even if he gets it passed, it will only be won by a few votes. This time there will be no luck, it is going to be a real.

Gay Maine

November 8th, 2009


As most of you know for the recent elections, Maine as rejected the same-sex marriage law. A majority of 53% the population voting against the law, I was a hard blow on the gay community. Although defeated, gays continue to protest for equal rights. Now, I believe what the gay community is doing is right. I believe that all men and women, gay or straight, should have the right to get married. It is not right of us as a society to ban gays from getting married. If we did that, would we be any better than we were barely 60 years ago? We have no right to take this privilege away from the gay community. Now, I am strong in my faith and I know that God has a plan for all of us. If he does not like gays, than why did he create them? God intends for all mankind to be happy, so let the gays be happy. If allowing them to get married will make them happy, so be it.
