So I'm doing what I should never do, flipping through the news. I gotta tell you, It's Bizzare.
One one newsfeed: Barack Obama is speaking to Troops about the raise he will be giving the soldiers, the support he will give them, and the now-solid timeline to leave Iraq. On another feed, Joe Biden is speaking with a panel on green jobs, who discusses with him the anticipation urban families have for these jobs, to create an infrastructure without a history of segregation, as well as limiting pollution, something everyone can be proud of.
At the same time, there's a discussion on focusing on investment: How 3,000 dollars of investment will pay of in energy costs in 2 years, and how giving organic diets to children in schools saves thousands in health care issues down the road; and how investing in helping peoplee learn to read to prepare them for jobs potentially saves $35,000-$50,000 in jailing these individuals when they do something reactionary.
Then there's the feed from CPAC, the conservative conference, Where someone spent his speech questioning whether or not Hawaii is a part of the United States and whether or not Barack Obama is a US Citizen, and another spent his speech on how Obama took the Republican Ideas last year and used them as his own during the election. They're now discussing how the stimulus package was a bad idea.
...Is this really the news today?
