Has anyone ever seen this virtual 3D game that has been out for at least a year now. I found out about it from watching CSI: New York.
There was a meeting today in New Hampshire, and during this meeting, Obama had mentioned about how the current Administration lied to the American people about the invasion of Iraq and I started to wonder. Food for thought.

In Los Angeles, on November 18 at 7 p.m., celebrities including Patti Labelle and Smokey Robinson will appear at The Grove for an annual Christmas tree-lighting, Hollywood-style. At the California state capitol in Sacramento, the tree-lighting usually takes place the first Tuesday in December. Last year Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger, who officiated at the ceremony with his wife Maria Shriver, took the bold step of calling it a Christmas tree, ending the use of the term "holiday tree."

In Boston, Nova Scotia sends a Christmas tree every year as thanks for relief sent from Massachusetts following the Halifax Explosion in 1917. This year's tree, a 45-foot tall white spruce, will be lit November 29 at 6 p.m. at the Boston Common.

Chicago's 94th annual tree-lighting ceremony takes place November 23, starting at 4:30 p.m., in Daley Plaza.

"An increasingly confrontational President Bush on Friday vetoed a bill authorizing hundreds of popular water projects even though lawmakers can count enough votes to override him.Bush brushed aside significant objections from Capitol Hill, even from Republicans, in thwarting legislation that provides money for projects like repairing hurricane damage, restoring wetlands and preventing flooding in communities across the nation.
This level of opposition virtually assured that Bush would have a veto overridden for the first time in his presidency. He has used the veto very sparingly for most of the time he has been in office, but has made more use of it recently.
"When we override this irresponsible veto, perhaps the president will finally recognize that Congress is an equal branch of government and reconsider his many other reckless veto threats," said Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, D-Nev."More than two years after failing to respond to the devastation and destruction of Hurricane Katrina, he is refusing to fund important projects guided by the Army Corps of Engineers that are essential to protecting the people of the Gulf Coast region."The $23 billion water bill passed in both chambers of Congress by well more than the two-thirds majority needed to override a veto and make the bill law.Bush objected to the $9 billion in projects added during negotiations between the House and Senate. He hoped that his action, even though it is sure not to hold, would cast him as a friend to conservatives who demand a tighter rein on federal spending.But Bush never vetoed spending bills under the Republican Congress, despite budgetary increases then, too. Attempting to demonstrate fiscal toughness in the seventh year of his presidency, Bush risks being criticized for doing too little, too late and of waging a transparently partisan attack against the Democrats who now run Capitol Hill.The president took the gamble, though without any public fanfare, making it part of a broader effort to take on Democratic leaders frequently and more pointedly.White House spokesman Tony Fratto said Bush issued veto threats under the GOP-controlled Congress that were enough to do the job."Republicans heeded the president's concerns, stayed within his spending caps, and avoided vetoes," he said. "Democrats are intent on exceeding those caps, and if they do the President will veto those bills."The water project legislation originally approved by the Senate would have cost $14 billion and the House version would have totaled $15 billion. Bush and a few Republicans complained that the final version was larded with unneeded pet projects pushed by individual lawmakers -- sending the overall cost of the bill much higher."Only in Washington could the House take a $14 billion bill into a conference with the Senate's $15 billion bill and emerge with a compromise that costs taxpayers over $23 billion," said White House press secretary Dana Perino.Bush vetoed the bill because it is "fiscally irresponsible" and falls outside the scope of the mission of the Army Corps of Engineers, she saidCritics noted the Corps already has a backlog of $58 billion worth of projects and an annual budget of only about $2 billion to address them.If Bush is overridden, the measure would give a green light to projects in virtually every state. It only authorizes the projects; the actual funding must be approved separately.
It never stops amazing me how hidden agendas are placed into bills. For once it would be nice if our beloved elected officials would think of our country and not their own agendas. What is it going to take for the American people to stand up and say "Enough is Enough". This country is slowly deteriorating and our elected wonders don't seem to care.
What a great game between Michigan and Michigan State. Got a little hairy there for a bit. However, the better team prevailed. Hopefully the Ohio State game will be just as exciting ! Looks lile the Wolverines still have a shot at the Rose Bowl. They would have to be absolutely flawless for them to pull that one off. Just trying to be realistic. My heart will forever be a Wolverine!!
