So, the time is here, America's political history is about to change dramatically;
historic events are about to unfold before our very eyes, I for one am excited. I
intend to research each canditates' position thouroughly and choose the individual
who I feel will make more positive impacts in our country's future.

Today, as I celebrate my son's first birthday, I am consumed by the current state
of world affairs. Can someone please explain something to me? Several years ago, there
was this obnoxious ruler in a middle eastern country that would not allow UN inspectors
to confirm or deny proof of WMDs (Weapons of Mass Destruction), including biological
or nuclear. So our bully of a president, Mr. Failure, Er I mean Mr. George W.
in his infinite wisdom, decided that since US is the world police (Who died and made
us God?), we would go into this little country and wipe out everything moving (Yes,
I am speaking of Iraq). 
</p>
        <p>
So Mr. Bush unofficially made himself big bad ass bully, dont mess with Bush, he'll
stomp you out!
</p>
        <p>
Now this past week, North Korea, has tested at least 2 nuclear weapons, shortly after
testing their long range missles in July, missles that can reach US Mainland! 
</p>
        <p>
Hello?!?!
</p>
        <p>
Why the hell are we not doing anything about this? I hear more on the news stations
about Mark Foley and his "Alledged" misconduct, why the hell arent we rushing to kick
some North Korea butt? Or at least begin some troop movements towards that area. I
dont know about you, but I'd be much more concerned with a madman with nuclear warheads,
than disconnected cells of terrorist groups.
</p>
        <p>
Wake up America, wake up and make your voice be heard, now is the time! If we fail
to act, we will doom the future of our beloved children.
