Humanitarian Group Challenges Antiterror Law at Supreme Court

The war on Terroism is going against the first amendment, freedom of expression. A humanitariasm group is challenging a 1996 aniterrorism law that prohibits support of terriosm groups. Sice this law 150 people have been aressted. This humaitari=aism group claims that they shouod have the right to support these people in hope of reaching a peacefu resoltion. Jimmy Carter has writtten a brief in support of this group. The Untited States on the contray is saying they are not limiting freedom of expression but direct support to our enemy. I agree with the United States.

As Obama and Scott Brown (the elected Mass. Senator) prepare to meet to discuss the issues of healt care and the stimulus package, the White House and Brown have a few tensions arising between them.

The White House claimed they have saved about $2 million jobs and have boosted the GDP by 3%. Jay Carney, spokesman for Vice President Biden, suggested that Brown "take note of serious economists of all political points of view." Brown has not responded yet.
I think Brown and Carney bith have good points. I have not herd to much of the creation of new jobs but i do know that the package saved jobs. Carney and Biden are taking it Brown said their package did not do anything, which is not what he said, he inferred that the package could do better to create jobs.

Obama Proposes Expansion of Small Business Loans

The president is proposing tha congress pass two bills that will expand the Small Buisness Administraton's (SBA) loan program. The bills goals are to help small buisnesses during the rough economy. The first will expand the exsiting program to provide temporary sopport for refinacing. The second will expand the cap on loans from $350,000 to $1 million dollars. Buisness have to reach elgibility though to recive this aid on requirment is that the small buisness must be up to date on it payments from the previos year.
I think the president is doing the right thing to help the buissnesses because small buisness is the backbone of our economoy and thats where all of the jobs are. His goal is to keep jobs and this is the best place to start.

Obama Backs Down After Anti-Vegas Remarks

Obama has been feeling the heat ever since he made inferences to Vegas about spending to much there on Feb 2. This is about the third time he has infered to Vegas as not a place to spend money. "People saving money for college shouldn't go and blow it in Vegas." After this remark Nevada officals were outraged. They say they dont know why Obama keeps singling out Vegas as a place where you spend to much money. What is upsetting Nevda the most is that they supported Obama in the 2008 election and the econmy and unemployment there is a big deal. "Obama is no friend to Vegas and would not be welcomed if he visited," Las Vegas mayor Gordon commented. "Enoough is enough!" said Shelley Berkley (D).
I believe Obama didnt mean anything by his remark that he was inly making a point but I can also see the side of Nevada. Their economy was one of the worst hit and unemployment if through the roof. Obamas remars have hurt the industry of Las Vegas before and they are worried they will lose buisness again.
