Whoever is the New SOS, Listen Up, No More Rwanda or Darfur
On Our Watch!

The Congo and the Gaza Strip are in real trouble right NOW.


News from Gaza in the last three days, is that they will run out of food and medicine today and Israel has lobbed rockets into Gaza yesterday and are only allowing gas to enter Gaza and have no intention of allowing food to reach Gaza and vow that their embargo will stay in tact.

These two situations must be dealt with IMMEDIATELY. These people are suffering and need urgent attention.

67 more days til this current administration is relegated into a much deserved state of obscurity. I only hope that these two countries can hang on that long.

Let us all say a prayer for these two countries and that our president elect and his new SOS will address these two crisis's on day one.

I'm thinking Obama and company will, at least I hope so.

3. Susan Rice is one of the most outstanding members of the ....
Obama campaign staffers, PERIOD. She has impressed me tremendously on a regular basis.

sarah palin vs. susan rice. Are you kidding me? NO CONTEST.

I'd love to see her as SOS any day of the week and twice on sundays. She's remarkable and qualified.
She'd be an asset in any position she was named to.

Edit to ask, what the heck does 'in like flynt' mean? I've heard it for years, or heard it years ago. :silly:

5. It's actually "In like Flynn".
And I've heard it refers to Errol Flynn's promiscuity.

2. My heart breaks everyday as they continue to suffer and the
world turn's away. It is truly unnerving that this suffering continues in our world.

6. These topics do not get enough attention ....
Yeah, our economy is in the dumper and many of us suffer a little. Most of the american people consider it a true hardship because they can't spend their usual weekly allotment at WalMart on a bunch of crappy junk they don't need, not even realizing the true amount of suffering these people have to endure everyday.

It's unacceptable.

8. Maybe I'm wierd, but I so much more care about ETHNIC CLEANSING..
and GENOCIDE in the last century than I do about michelle's red/black acceptance speech dress and what puppy they pick out.

We have real work ahead.
