ISSUE #1 -War Dollars


What the main issue is the goverment has a loophole in it by allowing congress to decide our federal spending, and what they use is something called power of the purse which is a fancy saying for screwing you over by being little kids about it and saying we wont spend money there if you dont help us. What doesnt make sense is we hire a commander in chief which by definition is in charge of our national defense, but really the people that have the final say would be congress which is a loophole in the goverment that needs to be fixed.


We need to put the power back into the executive branch for our national defense. That is something that at the end of the day he should make the decision as to where our country is headed. What the congress should be able to do is slow down how fast the president would be able to throw money around in national defense to try and slow down our national deficit. The NCEC is the group that i feel fits me. They support that we need to give some of the power back to the executive branch and not spread that big decision thru the congress. They believe in supporting the truly best canidate not the one that gets the most money.

North Korea refuses to abandon nukes

Last friday north korea stated that they would not dismantle there nukes, because of how the united states is handling there economics and how aggressive they are towards other countries. Another reason is because the united states was the reason North Korea got into nuclear weapons. The leaders stated they would never get rid of there nuclear weapons even if the earth was in a million pieces. Hillary Clinton is trying as hard as she can to convince the koreans to get rid of the nuclear warfare, shes been talking to them for 6 months and stll hasnt made any progress. But what CNN thinks is that the U.S. will exchange food for nuclear weapons.

I dont really think this is a big thing in the world. The koreans arent hostile against us, they just chill take opiots. I feel like we want to take the weapons so we can use them against afghanistan which wouldnt be a bad idea, but we can make our own. What would be nice is if we did help them with the food shortage, for in the long run so they have our backs incase we need them.

Suicide bomber strikes U.S. base

The bomber was unsuccesful with just 5 wounded and no dead the U.S. dodged another bullet from the guerilla warfare the afghans are using. the man detonated the bomb at 9 p.m. while in the sleeping area of the base. they are still unaware of how this man got into the base, but what investigators believe was this man killed an Afghan patrol officer and took his uniform, because he somehow got his hands on a uniform. Also the NATO building was attacked they arent really sure on what happened they dont believe that it has any relavance to this attack but arent 100% sure.

Im really sick of how this war is being fought, just becasue they know our military will run right over them if they stand up and fight. It is getting really old hearing about these suicide bombers believing they are going to be heros for what they do, but not one person remembers them when they kill themselves so its just a joke that they commit suicide to try and kill our soldiers, and always seem to fail becasue our dealth toll is no where near what theirs are.

Police arrest man accused of burning girlfriend with iron

Julilius Antwon Coleman was arrested and prosecuted for burning his girlfreind with a hot iron. They had a warrent out for his arrest for assault and criminal abuse to a vulnerable adult on tuesday 2/2. He was forcing his girlfreind to stay locked up in there house for over 6 months. The women lived but is suffering form a serious brain injury from her abusive boyfreind. This all started becasue Julilius Coleman didnt like how this women was ironing his clothes so he showed her the right way by doing it on her stomach.

I honestly dont even know what you could do for a charge against this guy, no charge is good enough for what he put this women through. I cant believe that she stayed cooped up for that long, and stayed with the guy. He needs major work on his head for him to believe what he did was alright. That guy should be shot and killed for what he did, not sit in prison.
