Go Bush!
//rant//I am getting a little fed up with seemingly everyone I know (at least from school) griping about Bush and how he's not doing enough to help out the New Orleans area.
9/11 happened right after he began his first term, around the same time in the term that Katrina happened. He asked for prayer then and seemed to turn even the atheist toward God somewhat. However, when he asks the nation to pray for the Katrina disaster, he gets mocked. The only reasoning I can make of this is that terrorism is "out of our control" and was a personal attack on us and that people must see natural disasters as something we can handle on our own. Personally, it THRILLS me to know that Bush has been asking for prayer because we CAN'T handle it on our own. I am probably more glad than ever to have voted for him. If other certain candidates were in office, we would probably be in even worse. But you can do "ifs" with this type of thing.
Is it really THAT bad to have a President who stands for something? Yes, America is for the free, but it can't roam free. There have to be standards. And we are supposed to support our President. Yes, there is a point where we should not, but that definitely is not now. A house divided against itself cannot stand, and I fear that is where we are headed as a nation. That, my friend, is why we need prayer.

Other than that, things are going wonderfully!! Classwork is kind of annoying sometimes, but most of it is interesting.
