So recently, I found a great new addition to my short list of awesome media websites. Before, I would frequent websites such as Youtube and other media sources. A couple days ago, I came across a website, iMeem. Basically, the concept of the website is quite simple.

Great article about how John Edwards has been slowly building his campaign over the past few years by successfully connecting with the working class.
Very refreshing to see a candicate take major steps to front the immigration concern. Of all the candidates running for president, none have weathered more crosscurrents of the immigration battle than Gov. Bill Richardson, the New Mexico Democrat.
In a statement released Monday, MySpace, the popular social networking site, said it had agreed to hand over to the states the names, addresses and online profiles of thousands of known convicted sex offenders who have opened up accounts on the service.
Great to see that even with a number disadvantage, the democrats are still gaining support. Senate Democrats have raised twice as much money this year as have their Republican counterparts, adding more difficulty to the electoral equation for Republicans next year.

Three Southern Oregon men, including the chairman of the Constitution Party of Oregon, filed with the Oregon Secretary of State on Monday morning to refer two recently adopted gay-rights laws to the voters in the fall of 2008.
It is a shame that journalism in schools aren't getting the support and recognition it should be. Reading this article is somewhat frightening to think maybe journalism isn't catching the attentions of students these days.
So the hot topic that I've been looking deep into was the positive and negative effects of Youtube.

Here comes the first debate of the 2008 candidates! SIMI VALLEY, Calif., May 3 -- The national political spotlight shifts to the Republicans here tonight when 10 candidates take the stage at the Ronald Reagan Presidential Library for their first debate of the 2008 campaign.
Interesting article about Obama's response to Bush's Iraq veto.
When is the war going to come to an end? Seems like the only news we hear about the war is about casualties. WASHINGTON — At least 104 U.S. troops died in Iraq in April, capping the deadliest six-month period for U.S. forces since the war began more than four years ago.
Today was kind of an odd day for me. I realized something that I actually had not thought about for quite some time. I was talking to a friend of mine and we got in a brief conversation about the war. To my dismay, my friend asked me, "What war? there is still a war going on?"

SANTA ANA, Calif. — Anyone convicted of a crime knows a debt to society often must be paid in jail. But a slice of Californians willing to supplement that debt with cash (no personal checks, please) are finding the time can be almost bearable.
WASHINGTON — As President Bush carefully avoids backing any of those seeking to succeed him in the Oval Office, an unusual split has developed between his top political advisers and immediate family members.
Gov. Christine Gregoire and House Speaker Frank Chopp, Democrats both, have spoken in favor of selecting at least some delegates through the primary. Republicans have likewise urged Democrats to go that route, saying if you do, we will, too.

FORT BENTON, Mont. — Law enforcers fatally shot a 13-year-old boy after he fired a gun at them on a state highway, authorities said Monday. How does this even happen? How does a 13 year old child get ahold of a gun?
