Fahrenheit 911

Fahrenheit 911 is a documentary that was produced by Michael Moore. It was one of the most controversial and provocative films ever produced. Moore considers the presidency of George W. Bush and where it has led us. The movie takes us inside the war to tell the stories we haven't heard, illustrating the awful human cost to U.S. soldiers and their families.

War in Iraq

The war in Iraq started on March 20, 2003. There are many different opinions about why the war is actually happening. In December 2003 Saddam was captured. The first battle of Fallujah took place in April 2004. In the movie Fahrenheit 911, there is talk that we are there because of oil. It states how there are actually soldiers protecting the oil rigs.

Ash Boar Bugs

Emerald ash borer is an exotic beetle that was discovered in southeastern Michigan in the summer of 2002. The beetles nibble on ash foliage but cause little damage. The larvae feed on the inner bark of ash trees, disabling the trees from transporting water and nutrients. Emerald ash borer could have arrived in the United States on solid wood packing material carried in cargo ships or airplanes originating in its native Asia.

Animal Affection

Animals show emotions towards us. I have a dog and whenever I am upset she always seems to pop up where I am. I believe that they know when something is wrong and when they are needed. If you treat an animal right then they will be right there for you as well. They can't talk so for them they show it through affection.

global warming

Global warming is starting and it is not looking good for the environment. The polar ice caps are melting and in my opinion we are not doing enough to help the situation. Some citizens say that the president is looking past this. Sooner or later there will be no more polar bears around, they will be extinct. A scientist appeared on 60 minutes the other night and stated we don't have any more than 5 years before strange things start to happen with the weather. He stated when the caps melt it will cause fresh water to flow into the oceans, cause salinity to decrease. From here it will not only kill the ocean life, but it will mess with the ocean currents, especially El Nino. To me this is a scary thought and we need to act before its too late.

Women President

Is it time for the United States to have a women for president? In my opinion I believe that it is. I not only say this because I am a girl, but because a human being is a human being, whether man or women. There are women out there in charge of other countries, take Queen Elizabeth for example. In the United States we already have women currently holding other government offices. I think Hillary Clinton is a good candidate.
