Tax plan found foul

republicans have found Obamas tax plan foul. rebublicans seem to really think that Obama is trying to potray republicans as callous and indifferent. I think that if Obama is going to come up with a new tax plan i think that he needs to not try to get republicans out of office. this is not something that is going to help anyone with whats going on.

internet games

it is said that 200 million people play games on facebook. Some people play for fun but others play for money. Now Google+ has added thier own thing on facebook. I think that this is something that will just make people lazy and just want to try out the new games that Googl+ is putting up. So really the people that are already overweight and not active at all and play video games all day are putting themselves in the hole even more. But then again I should not be pointing fingers at anyone.

two man race for the white house

Ever since the republican canidate runners started contesting for the 2012 presidential spot people have said that it was really gonna be a tough one. but it seems that now it has dropped down to only two main canidates these two are Rick Perry and Mitt Romney. Romney was the head leader in the race until a late decision by Perry was made to run and he soon ran over Romney out of the lead. Perry has shown that he is not afraid to go after Obama and has shown it through a lot of his campaigns. Romney on the other hand has taken another approach in telling people that come November Perry will not be able to beat Obama and will run out of steam.
