This is about the first guy who ever climbed mount everest he is considered to be one of the greatest adventurers of the 20 th century. The guy didn’t really think it was a big deal to be the first one to climb mount everest he was even more excited about being knighted by newly crowned queen Elizabeth the second well any war this mans name was sir Edmund hillary and he died janruary ninth at nine am. This man was also know for his work in Nepal and always said that it didn’t take anything special to be a adventurer just the spirit to do it

I think this is really cool that this guy can did all of these really cool things and was ablt to still be humble about the whole thing. Of all of the people that have now climbed to the top of mount everest this guy was the first and that’s got to be one of the coolest things for a guy to say

This is about how george bush thinks he can bring peace to Palestine and all of the middle east. Bush believes that he is on a time plan and that he will be able to solve all of the problems in the world bush did also mention that there are some things standing in his way such as the terrorist organization hamas people are doubting the credibility of bushes comments and most think that Israel and Palestine and the gaza strip will never be at peace.

I think bush is crazy and where was this kind of drive in the early years of his presidency and why wasn’t he this motivated during all of the other crisis that have taken place in his presidency I just think that its funny that because bush is up against a wall and probably has heard rumors that he might become one of the worst presidents in history he his now taking action against things that have been happening for years.

Primaries

Yesterday the New Hampshire primary took place and in the front runnings were for the republicans senator Jon McCain and for the democrats it was hillary Clinton these primaries weren’t that important considering they didn’t involve a state that was truly pivotal for either candidate Jon mccain was excited however because he had not been a front runner in any of the poles in recent weeks

I think that mccain benefited greater from this victory people have been saying that mccain is a rino and that he isn’t really rebublican and he dosent have any truly republivan slash conservative policies I don’t think mccain will beable to pull it out mostly because of his age and his non conservative policies
Primaries

Last week was the first of the cacauses took place and this one was held in iowa the iowa cacauss is inimportant because it is one of the unimportant states. The only thing that it does show is in the regular electin it tends to sway either way. Iowa was a bad day for top democratic candidate hillary Clinton she was projected to do a lot better in the cacauss than she did ended up taking third and candidate barak obama took the state and this was a huge victory for obama because the poles showed that the people that voted for obama where white women and iowa women tend to lean towards the conservative side. On the republican side Senator Mike Huckabee took everything he took it all by a land slide. The only thing is iowa was one of the main focuses of huckabee I will be interesting to see how huckabee does in the later runnings
