The Judge Has Spoken !!!

The big battle is finally over who has the power in Los Angeles. For the past day, all “experts” were giving their opinions on who has the right to decide the faith of an inmate. I am glad to see that Judge Michael Sauer won this battle over the Sheriff and indeed overruled the sheriff’s decision of sending Paris home. Its about time that we show the rich Paris that she is not above the law; I am sick and tired of hearing her name everywhere I go and cant wait to see the day that people start talking about the “real” problem our country is facing rather than news about a girl who reached her fame by making a sex video!!!

Change in Paris…

This past Sunday, French people yet again showed the rest of the world the true meaning of a democracy. As Americans we love to attack and make fun of the French but once again they showed us how things should be done. I was amazed to see that the presidential election had an 85% turnout unlike our last election where we had a turnout of 54%. The funny thing about all of this is that our politicians spent over $500,000,000 in the last presidential race and only attracted 54% of the population. The French on the other hand use a state run television program so that the entire population has access to it and in return have a massive turnout. Wouldn’t it be great to see people being more interested in our presidential elections rather than worrying about voting for the next American Idol???

Illegal Immigration...

May 1st marks yet another day of massive demonstrations around the country for illegal immigration. Many illegal immigrants were marching here in Los Angeles trying to gain support for their cause. As a legal immigrant who’s parents had to wait in line for over ten years in order to have the privilege of receiving a Green Card and gaining access legally, I believe that its not right for people to have the same rights if they choose to brake the laws of the land and not wait in line like the rest of us. Therefore I am absolutely against having amnesty for illegal immigrants; that being said I also realize that illegal immigrants are the backbone of our country due to their willingness to perform jobs that most “Americans” simply wouldn’t do. Many illegal immigrants are good hardworking citizens who actually help our society and therefore should have access to healthcare and education. I guess what I am really trying to say is that I don’t know what the right response to this crisis is; we shouldn’t reward people for breaking laws and at the same time we should find it in our hearts to help one another, especially if they are helping our economy and society. On a side note, I think all students who skip classes to attend these demonstrations should be suspended… odds are they are trying to get out of school and don’t really give a damn about the issue!!!

Crazy Tenet...

Today six former CIA officers wrote a nasty letter to the former Director George Tenet who is blamed by many for being one of the main reasons why we are at war. Interestingly enough the former officers accused Tenet of misleading the American public and our congress with the type of information he chose to release in order to make a case for Iraq. The officers expressed their anger and frustration with tenet because the reports from officers on the field clearly showed that there were no WMD in Iraq and that Saddam and Al-Qaeda had no ties to one another. The officers also requested Tenet giving back the Medal of Freedom he received from President Bush before leaving the Agency. What amazes me is that Tenet’s new book is coming out on Monday and he actually gets to profit from all the pain and suffering he has brought to our nation and the rest of the world.
