Just an every day hero?

Imagine this, you go to tuck your little boy into bed, but you can’t find him anywhere! He is gone, nowhere to be seen. Well this really happened. Recently in Las Vegas, a boy was abducted then found by a local bus driver. What great luck! To me that bus driver is such a hero. I guess the boy was taken at gunpoint by two men posed as policemen. Then after a few days they let him go. The bus driver saw a little boy walking late at night, so he stopped and asked him if he was okay. The boy then told him what happened, and he got taken home, back in his parents care. At times like these it really makes you think. I wonder why they needed the little boy. What did they do to him? Why did they let him go? What were his parents thinking? I know that if my child was kidnapped, I would freak out and do everything in my power to get him back. That would be absolutely horrible. I mean, what kind of person kidnappes someone. That is an awful thing to do. I would never be able to forgive myself. And think of all the people you would be hurting! This can be such a cruel, cruel, world. If people keep doing crime, it makes you think….What is this world coming to?

Donkey vs. Elephant

I got assigned a simple assignment. To write a paper on the upcoming election. So as I sit here, at my desk, coffee in hand, I observe that there are hardly any topics about Obama. They are all about McCain. I speculate why? But a good number of the articles about McCain are all bad. Talking about how he “backs out on Michigan.” For my part, I don’t think our future president should be a coward, and should not give up on that state just because he is falling behind. In my eyes, a president would take charge, battle, and do whatever is necessary to win. I like Obama, I think he is a bona fide leader, and would make the perfect president……wait, wait, wait, I’m sorry, I forgot I was writing about McCain. Oh yeah! So, as I was saying, I don’t think McCain would be an absolutely dire president. One of the reasons I believe that is because he is a Christian. I think that Christianity is an important thing to win an election. Once you have God and the people on your side then its gold. But at the same time be hurting him since religion is a major controversy, there are many types of religious, therefore different opinions. Well folks its republican vs. democrat. The choice is yours.

Lies, Lies, There all Lies!

Government Secretes. Okay are you interested? Well you should be. Did you know that everything that happens, whether it’s a local shooting, or even about the wars in Iraq, the government hides some details? Like when we watch an intriguing story on the news, it’s actually not the full story. Do you want the full scoop? To darn bad. Because unless you work in a government agency, the odds are, you won’t find out the whole truth. Scandalous? Yeah, you might think so, but they have every right to do so. In my personal opinion, I believe that they shouldn’t leave anything out. In all fairness, why do they get to know but we don’t? It just doesn’t seem fair! Listen, I’m a big believer in phenomenon; I was heartbroken when I was not able to uncover the truth about what really happened in Roswell New Mexico. Aliens just fascinate me, and I kept hearing different versions of the truth. And sometimes the government changes the story completely, and just knocks it way out of proportion. It’s ridiculous. They have also stretched the truth about what happens in war. If one of my relatives were at battle, I would be pretty upset if I heard lies about what really happened in war. I would be worried, that something has gone wrong at the battle field. All people should be able to know what’s happening. That is the point of watching the news. Okay now everybody; hold your horses, its metaphor time! Let’s say that your mom, made you this smelly dinner, but she would not tell you what’s in it, but you had to eat it anyway. Now relate that to what stories we are being fed, but we don’t know what their made up of. Secrets are secrets, give it up, someone will eventually find out!
