Michael Tomasky a brilliant writer for the Guardian, has made his final video, as he is leaving the paper. The Guardian is losing a respected man, and I love his writing, and also the video blogs that he made. You can find his writings and videos, in the ‘Comment is Free’ section of the Guardian.

According to CNN, Bristol Palin says she may run for office, only she dosen’t say what office she would run for. She said that if something needed to be changed, then she would do it. Then she goes on to say, that her mother should run for president in 2012, as she is a mom, and has conservative values. Okay.

Neither one of them have any sense at all, to tackle the problems this country and world are going through. Enough is enough!
