Now it's time to say goodbye!

Well, I hope that you have gotten something useful out of this blog!  I had fun writing about my interpretations of the American governement and learned a lot through this class.  My eyes have been opened to differnet ways of thinking and have been able to explore the inter-workings of politics.  I set out with the goal of trying to hold an intelligent conversation with friends about what is going on with our governement without overstepping boundries that are so personal to many.  I feel as if I accomplished my personal goal and feel confident in the discussions that I have.  My classmates have been amazing in their support of my beliefs and pushing my beliefs to make me more open and understanding to other views, so thanks guys!  So, I hope that everyone starts to participate a little bit more in their involvement with our governement that is designed to reflect the views of all of its citizens.  Cheers, to the end of the semester, and good luck to all!

Thanks Vetrans!

Our military gives us our daily freedom.  We often take these freedoms for granted.  We go about our daily lives not even thinking about how much others are thinking about our freedom.  How much others devote their lives to protecting ours.  Our military defends the foreign policies that our government puts in place to defend our nation and help make prosperious relationships with other countries.

Thank you to the men and women who risk their lives and sacrifice their time so we can live our lives with peace of mind.  Thank you to their families who love them and support them and sacrifice their time and memories so selflessly.  I find it amazing that others care so much about my feedom that they fight to defend it.

November 11th is Vetrans Day.  Make sure that you thank our military service men and women for their sacrifices and the work that they do.
