9.15.10 Washington DC

I think that it's really gross that high level staff in the Pentagon have viewed child pronography. It's very hypocritical considering they are working for the government and the law and they are participating in something illegal. It's also a shock that Pentagon employees are taking time from their jobs and viewing or spending money on child pornography on goverment computers. They should definitely be fired from their jobs because having a sex offender working for the government, some with access to the nation's most sensitive secrets, is completely irresponsible.

9.26.10 Bedfordshire, UK Tenn banned from United States

I never knew people working at the White House actually read all the letters and emails sent to them. I always thought that stupid ones that were about hating the president and what not were ignored. I think that anyone can state their opinion as long as they do not take it too far. I guess Luke Angel did. One day, he is probably going to need to go to the United States and he will deeply regret getting high and drunk and calling Obama a prick.

P= You definitely have some good thoughts about the topic C= Tell us a little more about the story and then tell us what you think without saying "I think." Just tell us!

10.6.10 Florida

I find it really refreshing that a law banning adoptions by gay men and women was declared unconstitutional. I don't understand how you could deprive children who need a home from perfectly capable parents. There shouldn't be any different from a man and a woman adopting and a man and a man adopting. It's not fair that gays have this judgement over them. I agree with Charlie Crist when he said that it was "a great day for children".


 * Your last line would actually make a very good first line. Tell us more about the article and then give your reaction. Talk more about the judgment of homosexuals in society and then add your opinions to that. It gives your paragraph some more content.**

The Iraq War, as revealed by WikiLeaks

WikiLeaks, a website, leaked secret information about torturing and killing Iraqis in U.S. History. The documents were from 2004 to early 2009. These documents included facts about torturing Sunni prosoners and soldiers of the U.S. witnessing the abuse without protest. The Wikileaks caused great harm and might of derailed Iraq's attempt to form a civilized government. I think that its truly horrible that WikiLeaks released military documents about people abusing other people. Our nation is very civilized and I find it really hard to believe that happened. I really hope this does not ruin the chances or Iraq becoming a non dysfunctional country one day.
