JAN 15. Personal Entry

So, for my personal entry I would like to talk about the recent earthquake in Haiti. Altough it does not effect the people of our country, I think we should do whatever we can to help them in their time of need. If we have old clothes we do not use or any supplies we think would benefit them, we should definitely send them. They would appreciate any support they could get. This earthquake has killed many many people, and it destroyed what little they had before the disaster. We should keep them in our thoughts and prayers during this time.

3) this cartoon deals with the earthquake in Haiti

4) The cartoons message is saying that there are so many charities towards helping the people of Haiti, but many of them are phony. They say they are helping Haiti but really your charity may be going some place totally irrelevant.

5) I would have to agree with the message. Altough we are trying so hard to help the people, i think some of the charities are a tad phony and not actually helping.

So, all in all I think Obama will have a good year, of course there will be ups and downs but I think everything will turn out OK. I feel as if we are headed in the right direction, our economic downturn is not quite over but were working on it and it is improving. The unemployment rates are not as low and people are finding jobs easier. I do not know about the situation over seas since Obama sent more troops, and it is too early to say if it worked out for the better or not. Hopefully it will. Obama is doing a good job and surprisingly the new health care plan is almost taken action and is being dealt with more than we thought! I think it will be a good year.

3) This issue is dealing with the idea of the recently loved democrats crashing and no longer being the high group. This could be because of the presidency and decisions he has made.

4) The message is compared to a scene from the movie Titanic. It is saying that '08s democrats who were doing well are soon going to crash into an iceberg in this new year.

5) I would like to disagree with this message and have some hope for the Democrats but it could quite possibly be how things turn out. It happens.
