Congratulations

Congratulations Mr. Mcdonnell!!!! You are now the Virginia's Governor. I think that you have showed the GOP that we should run on Fiscal Conservativism. You ran a campaign based on issues like budget, education, and transportation, you won by huge margins. Christie on the other hand ran the normal mixed social conservative and will probably squeak it in New Jersey by smaller margins.Shows us how we run.....

A Bad Move

It is a bad move for a White House to start attacking the most watched news network. I reference the Stephenopolis-Obama interview. Obama refered to a network devoted to smearing his Presidency. He has repeatedly attacked Fox News because they think differently than his administration. I don't know if they realize this , but notable dictators have done the same. Fox News employs numerous Anti-Obama and Anti-Liberal commentators and pundits. The idea of fighting the NEWs MEDIA THAT PEOPLE WATCH TO FORM THEIR OPINION is a stupid move. Obama is now diverting himself from Afghanistan and the economy for socialized medicine and(what do ya know!!!!!) Fox News.

Vote Republican 2010!!!!!!

Florida Senate

I know this is in Florida, but the US Senate seat is open for election. I like Charlie Crist ever since he was considered for VP back in 08. I thought that he was pretty conservative the everybody talked about him. I didn't read anything about him because I thought Romney had it in the bag. Now, Charlie is running for Senator and people are calling him centrist, moderate, and leaning conservative. This shocked me because of what I had heard. Then, I heard the announcement of Marco Rubio, Florida Speaker of the House and fluent Spanish Speaker. I heard he is a devout conservative Republican and fought with Crist many times. I like both of them but I need help deciding who is what and who is not. Please write in with responses.

Funny thing

Have you heard that the government lost the original moonwalk tape? NO NOT MICHAEL JACKSON!!!! The one with Neil Armstrong saying "One small step for man, and one giant leap for mankind.". Yes they lost it in the office during a revamp of the tape. They said it was to grainy and unclear so they sent it to some guy to clear it up a bit. That perfectly understandable and ok in my opinion. I like visible movies too. The problem happened when they came back to compare the old and new tapes. THEY LOST THE OLD!!!!!!!!!!! These are the people that want our health records and know our prescriptions...pht!! What should make us think that we can trust the government with anything that has personal information. You see, we can't. It is a personal responsibility to provide for yourself. That means you work for a living, you buy the food and pay off the cars and house with that money, and you live with what you work for. Obama has said that his "Public Option" does not mean the government will control the healthcare , or at least right away. What his plan will do is give unrivaled prices for (iffy) coverage. The private sector healthcare providers will then be taxed by the government to pay for there own competition to run on. Businesses will lower prices to try to compete with government, but that will result in them collapsing and the government taking over life and death situations that only our private insururs could understand. Thank you and God Bless America!

Independence Day

Independence Day is a day to commemorate the sacrifice of many to bring freedom to their loved ones and friends. This day is monument to the downfall of tyranny and immorality. It is to show that we are the United States of America and by gosh, nothing will bring us down. We broke from King George and his people because of taxes that snapped the spine of the colonial economy. The Boston Tea Party set an example for the freedom-loving patriots. No Barack, no Nacy Pelosi, no Harry Reid can destroy freedom without us putting up a fight. Happy Independence Day and God bless America and God bless you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The Case Against NCLB

NCLB is something that I disagree with on the grounds of being a student and a limited government believer. As a student, I see the way teachers teach the test and limit the learning of more advanced students to what the lowest standard of the class is. Any teachers that have not been there for at least 15 years or are small government teachers (trust me they're real), are looking at there teacher's manual every other minute. They teach the test to the fullest extent. After I saw the Standards Tests material, I wrote my own five-page test. I gave it to 15 students separated into 3 groups. Remember I know these people personally so could make good decision where to group them. The groups were Advanced, Intermediate, and Basic. I wrote a second test based on state standards. I gave them out 4 days apart. I gave out the state test on Monday and collected it and didn't look at it. Friday, my test was given to the test subjects. I tallied results over the weekend. It turns out that the test that challenged them more they did better on. I asked my groups which challenged them more. A slight majority of the Basic group said that my test was harder. Intermediate students were evenly matched one person said they were heavily challenged by both. I knew the Advanced group thought that it would be esy. Mine challenged them strongly,a nd they did great on it. I actually wrote three tests for each group. Challenge helps.
