Today President George W. Bush gave a speech attacking Barack Obama's methods of keeping peace. In President Bush's speech he said "Some seem to believe that we should negotiate with the terrorists and radicals." Obama took this comment and believed it was directed towards him. And President Bush continues to passively speak about Obama's method of keeping peace by adding a history note quoted "We have heard this foolish delusion before. As Nazi tanks crossed into Poland in 1939, an American senator declared: 'Lord, if I could only have talked to Hitler, all this might have been avoided.' We have an obligation to call this what it is - the false comfort of appeasement."
Obama took this to offense and decided to defend himself by calling the President sad because he attack a candidate. He stated how he never supported or arranged anything with terrorists and by doing so insulted President Bush in a way. Afterwards Dana Perino a White House spokesperson quoted about Obama stating how "I understand when you're running for office you sometimes think the world revolves around you." Obama has been shut down and criticized for his support and arrangements with the Iranian President last year.
This happened because of a speech given by our GREAT President Bush. Whether he was targeting an individual or an idea his comments forced Obama into a child's game. This is facepalm news for the reason that our candidates should be mature and ignore many of the things that are said about tem.
The old generation has passed and the new one has begun. Disney has created and forged new artists such as "The Jonas Brothers" and "Hannah Montana aka Miley Cyrus." This new generation of pop stars were created by Disney and now the new generation's famous pop artists. Such as Britney Spears, Lindsey Lohan, Justin Timberlake, and Christina Aguilera were once pop stars for the past generation. Now the new generation of pop stars emerges and many young children and young teenagers are going wild for these singers. However as the pattern continues many famous child stars grow up to be corrupt or drug abusers. It may not be certain now but it can happen in the near future as these child stars grow up to fast.
Recently pop singer Miley Cyrus leaked inappropriate and almost nude pictures of herself. Being young as 16 and portraying herself in this matter gives many younger teenage girls a bad image of her and impression. Possibly the reason for her to reveal so much of her skin is because of the media life and the older people she is with most of the time. A part of life is growing up but if you skip growing up and go straight into adulthood you would be a lost soul and a corrupt like Lindsey Lohan.
I'm afraid for the generation after the new one apparently things, which are innappropriate to us, would be passable for their generation. Soon we will be running around naked and doing drugs. This is an epic facepalm moment for Disney stars. At such young age they've begun to grow up into adulthood and would not understand what's right and wrong. I feel bad for Miley for having this image leak into the interweb.
It is a fact that our innocent action hero Jackie chan has done pornography before in his lifetime.
31 years ago Jackie Chan starred in a pornography film titled "All in the Family." Is Jackie Chan ashamed of this sinful act of his? He explains "I had to do anything I could to make a living 31 years ago, but I don't think it's a big deal, even Marlon Brando used to be exposed in his movies," Chan said. "The porn movie at that time was more conservative than the current films."
Let's put together our hands and bow our heads down for the deaths of many in China. Recently a 7.9 rector scale earthquake hit Sichuan province. Many villages and towns such as Wenchuan, Yinxiu, and, Dujiangyan received devastating damages. The damages which occurred in Sichuan were devastating as buildings were all destroyed, roads were completely blocked, and 25,000 are trapped under rubble. Rescuers and citizens gathered together to help rescue those who are buried underground. So far 25,788 are still buried, 64,746 are injured, 14,051 are missing, and sadly approximately 14,463 has died.
As China's Prime Minister Wen Jiabao visited the epicenter of the earthquake, he witnessed many tragic events before his eyes. The events were so devastating he had to request 10,000 Chinese military troops to help clear the rubble and rescue many civilians. He also ordered helicopters to be flown into the area to supply everyone with medical supplies and ration. However the earthquake gave such an impact on the province of Sichuan many vehicles were not able to pass through the villages. Instead everyone used their bare hands to dig through the rubble and search for survivors. Events worsened as the weather during the rescues were poor and rained for a week. With this effect hampering the rescue mission, many were having a difficulty trying to dig through the rubble. Another important matter is the dam which was built near the city Dujiangyan was in danger of collapsing. If this dam were to collapse it would cause more trouble to the clearing of the epicenter area and would devastate the food supply to many people in the province of Sichuan.
This is not a facepalm news... However this is a major event which occurred to my main country. I find it sad how the school did not announce this news in the loud speaker seeing how many of us in the school are Chinese. It took my guidance counselor "who wasted mine and another girl's time by calling us to her office to question us about our family's safety" to make me realize how this school sucks =[.
