What am I thankful for?

Like you said Mr. Palo there are just so many reasons to be thankful and even for the simple fact of being alive. But right now from recent experiences I am completely thankful for my mother and my father, because without them I do not know where I would be today in a emotional state, and they have done so much for me and my brother because they want the best for us. I am thankful that I have teachers that push me to be the best that I can be. And from that I feel successful in school this year and in all of my high school years this is the first time I can actually say that I am working hard to achieve my goals. I am also thankful that my parents still have there jobs, ummm there is just so many other things I can say I am thankful for but that would take along time to show how I am truly grateful for so many things.

Bush forgives Kanye West for calling him a racist!

Kanye west stated during the time of Hurricane Katrina that George W. bush "doesn't care about black people.". And now Kanye is taking back hes statement on the NBC's "Today show he told Matt Lauer,
"I would tell George Bush: In my moment of frustration, I didn't have the grounds to call him a racist," West said. "I believe that in a situation of high emotion like that, we as human beings don't always choose the right words." I find it surprising that kanye would even apologize for a statement he had made. But even more why would former president even use Kanye west as example of people who called him rascist. To me Kanye west is not important enough to be talked about from a former political leader. But bush had this to say about Kaynes apology "I'm not a hater. I don't hate Kanye West," he said. "But I was talking about an environment in which people were willing to say things that hurt. Nobody wants to be called a racist, if in your heart you believe in the equality of race." I Don't even think this way worth blogging about.

This man obviously really doesn't like illgeal immigrants. I think in this campaign that was his main focus. After I watched this video I thought to my self that people can become very angry about these sorts of issues. And I also read the comments underneath this video and many people said "thank god we can vote, so we wont allow another hitler". I guess some people can be protrad as that when they don;t hvae an open mind.
