Well I think in this class discussion I did bad and it got more heated then the last one. I think it’s because of the subject, since it has to do with religion. Even though in this country we have the right to our freedom of religion we are still trying to stop the construction of the mosque. We are contradicting ourselves by not allowing them to do so. I understand that this will affect the families of those whose lives were lost but we shouldn’t think of this as a slap in the ace we should try and learn from them. Just as I said in class people are afraid of what they don’t know and therefore reject anything different or things they have little knowledge of. In the end I stayed in the middle I don’t favor or am against it because there are so many reasons but I think that we should let it happen. Well hopefully next class discussion I do better than this past one.

http://www.wordle.net/show/wrdl/3138147/gov
1. Love –I think that we should all have love for one another and be respectful of others opinions and values.
2. Education-This is a big point that I agree with Obama because we all should be prepared and well informed.
3. Jobs-In our economy today we need more people to be educated to that we can be helpful and create jobs for others.
4. Freedom-This is a free country and in that right we can do the impossible possible.
5. Immigration- This topic to me is important because I have some family who come with a dream and achieve it or get close to it so why punish those who do good?
6. Solar power- We should start thinking more about our health and the earth because we live on it and survive so why not take care of it by improving to make it better.
7. Moral- We all might different morals or principle but we can agree and come together to be one.
8. Goals- We set goals and we have always talked about changes but never taken action, so for Obama to have set some and actually accomplished something is a big thing.
9. Right- What gives us the right to shame others for wanting a better future, we should give others the chance to get better
10. Wrong- It’s wrong not to try and help those who actually need the medical support.
11. Graduates- I agree with Obama on the issue of those immigrants that come and get educated and it makes no sense to send them to their country to compete against those who taught them.
12. Family- It’s an important thing for people to be healthy so they can help their family and expand for a better future.
13. Health- we should have the health care reform because it will help thousands of Americans and give relief to those who are in the point of bankruptcy due to medical payments. President Obama stated that, “he is not willing to go back to the days where insurance company could deny coverage to those with preexisting conditions”.
14. Responsibility- we want to take responsibility for what we want we can’t expect everything to happen for us just because.
15. Future- we should try to build a better future not only for use but for other generations.
16. Progress- I admire what the president did because he not only took action he actually made it work.
17. Action- most of the other presidents have tried to doo what Obama did but never accomplished it so I think we are a step further.
18. Kids- Obama said that we should have a race to educate our kids. This is due to the lack/low rate of graduates.
19. Affordable- the health care made it affordable for everyone to be covered and gave assistance to those who can’t care for themselves.
20. A step- was taken to change and progress, like the astronaut said when he first stepped on the moon, “it’s a small step for man but a big leap for human kind”.
21. Hope – I hope that the future only bring more good change and less negativity for all of us.
22. Obstacles- there is a lot of debate and even a repealing about the health care reform. I don’t understand why if this will help us and I know that there are flaws but it will take time to fix it.
23. Economy- the economy is getting back on track but like the president said we measure progress by the success of our people.
24. Moving forward – I think that instead of seeing the bad side of the reform we should start appreciating the good that is has done and progress from that point on to improve on it even further.
25. Challenges- we have all faced hardships and we have gone through difficult moments but we have always come out and grew stronger from each downfall.
26. Strength- we have always been a strong country and have always been able to build on to what we haven’t accomplishes.
27. Achievement- thanks to the freedom that this country offers we have been able to get to where we stand and we have become the nation to which others ask for help.
28. Prosper- we should have faith in the fact that what we do cannot hurt us but make us even more genuine.
29. Race- there has been a race going on to educate the next generation and to beat other countries in that area. We have the best colleges and yet other countries are doing better.
30. Innovation- We are the nation that sparks the creativity and imagination of our people. We are the nation of Edison and the Wright brothers, goggle and Facebook innovation is how we make our living.
31. Dream- for having so much freedom we have been able o create things that are unimaginable like bill gates who became a billionaire after letting his imagination run and creating Microsoft.
32. Troops- in happy to hear that the troops are coming back I miss my friend and wish to see him so as well as his family.
33. Serve- Obama said that from now on nobody will be denied the right to serve their country because of who the love.
34. Country- finally there is a lot of talk of future and dreams but now we need to see and take action.
35. Parents- should help by making sure the homework gets done and that the TV is turned off.
36. Invest- we have to start investing not only in our future but as well as in others to help others as well as ourselves because in the end we all benefit.
37. Opportunity – there are opportunities being created each and every day now we just have to move and take them encourage competition.
38. Success – our success is based on our innovation and willingness to succeed.
39. Generation- the nest generation hopefully will see and understand that we can change the world and Have the power to do so.
40. Tax- the taxes should be raise but it will benefit is and it might hurt others but it has to be done.
41. Measure- we need to measure our opinions and thought but we also have to let our imagination fly.
42. Teachers- the help in a big way and we should reward the good ones and stop making excuses for the bad ones as the president said.
43. Cooperation – if we all work together we will excel and go beyond.
44. Community- we all have to think of ourselves as a community because a choice can affect us all.
45. Bless- we are blessed to have a wonderful world so we must take care of it and cherish it in every way possible.
46. Decades- We have to take challenges that have been decades in the making. In a single generation of technology have transformed the way we work and live. The world has changed and the competition for jobs is real this shouldn’t discourage us it should challenge us and remember for all the hits we have taken America still has the most prosperous economy in the world.
47. Inspiration- we will move together or not at all.
48. Moment- it’s not whether we can sit together but its weather we can move together and work to unite.
49. Winners- it’s not just the guy who gets a medal or a star who gets a Grammy but also the science kid who gets first prize and invents something that is useful to all of us.
50. Improvement- we have to improve the quality of our work and push ourselves to good not just for our own purposes but for the better good of our kids and family so that they can live on and carry on the legacy.

"Without Care"
Baby clings to life after being abandoned in S.C. arena toilet By the CNN Wire Staff February 9, 2011
A baby is clinging to his life after being abandoned in an arena toilet. The baby was found after being born an hour or so. The police said that the baby boy was found by a custodian after a Ringling Brothers and Barnum & Bailey performance. The custodian herd whimpering and crying from the bathroom so he discovered the baby in the toilet and was rushed to the hospital. Nobody knew who the mother was or if she was in good conditions. It was a mystery. When the mother was found she said she had no idea that she was pregnant or that she had given birth that night. She told authorities that she had been feeling bad so she went to the bathroom and that was it. I think it’s sad because how do you abandon a baby especially a new born baby.

"Super Bowl"
The super bowl was ok I thought that a lot of the so called professionals messed up. For example Christina Aguilera who forgot the national anthem in front of millions of viewers. I do understand that she might have been nervous but she shouldn’t have repeated the same line or forgot one. There was also a “technical difficulty” at the beginning of the black eyed peas performance; I was surprised because they delivered a message to president Obama about the education. I didn’t expect it and I’m sure nobody else did either. I do give them props for that because they are at least informed. all in all i thought that the entertainment could have been better.

"WOW"
By the CNN Wire Staff February 4, 2011
Wow! That’s all I can say some man attacks a cartoonist because he draws a cartoon of a Muslim prophet Mohammed wearing a bomb-shaped turban. Now a day’s people can’t take a joke or even take things to seriously. This man was just simply doing his job and there is someone trying to kill him? Glee was the attacker he was convicted Thursday of attempted terrorism, attempted manslaughter and attacking a police officer with a knife and an ax, according to prosecutors. He tried to break into the house, he broke a window which set the alarm to go off and this is what alerted the police. The police shot glee in the hand and leg. He was sentenced to nine years in prison and expelled from Denmark when he gets out of prison. That’s crazy but life is life and people take things in the worst way possible.
Good punch
By the CNN Wire Staff February 4, 2011
A Washington Redskin’s lineman is accused of punching a motorist. I found it funny because according to the article he deserved it. According to the police the motorist told police that the driver of a pickup truck was tailgating him so he delivered a non verbal hand gesture to the driver of the pickup truck later determined to be Haynesworth. The motorist said that when they stopped at a red light Haynesworth got out and they exchanged a couple of words before he threw a punch. The motorist later went to a hospital for minor injuries. I think he just wants to get attention and be noticed or get money. They should punch him again hehe. jk =]
