What worked?
I don't think that much worked in our literature group, some of us could keep up with the writing while others could not. Only Evan, Will and I managed to keep up with the due dates and we were the only ones able to finish the book. When it came to the lit meetings a lot of people didn't have their projects or they just didn't exude any kind of emotion towards their project, most of the time we only did half of the projects or we didn't have enough time for everyone's project. I don't think a lot worked in our lit group.
What would you like to see changed?
I would like to see everyone's project done and I would like to see everyone be able to finish their book so that we could all talk about it and so that we are all able to play everyone's games. Because not a lot of people had finished the part they were supposed to read we were not able to play the games correctly. I would like to see everyone be excited about their projects and not do their projects that morning.
What was your book about?
My book was about the adventures of Huck Finn. Huck lived with a widow that tried to civilize him but he didn't like that so he decided to go with his father who wasn't very nice. He then decided to leave his father and made it look like he had been murdered. He ended up on a little island and soon found Jim, the widow's slave, he had run away because he overheard the widow talking about selling Jim. Jim and Huck soon became friends and decided to head towards New Orleans. They went through a lot of people and Jim ended up getting captured for a reward. Huck ended up going to Aunt Sally's house which was Tom Sawyers Aunt. Tom Sawyer ended up showing up and saying that he was his brother and saying that Huck was Tom. They tried getting Jim out of the back but they all did was plan. They were chased by a crowd of people and they got Jim out because they were running to the raft. Tom ended up getting shot and they let Jim go because Tom told them that he was already a free slave because the widow had died a couple of weeks before and her will said that when she died Jim was free. Jim also told Huck that they saw his dead dad.

Obama Socialist?
When I googled Obama socialism I started looking for a story about what people thought about Obama and socialism. I read on stjoenews.com that an Alabama congressman said that he knew at least 17 socialist house members, but he refused to give the list of the names. Long however says that there is not even one socialist house members and that if there were, everyone would own a piece of AIG or the auto industry, but they don't. The government is helping out the economy now because of the "hard economic times". I don't think that these allegations are correct because Obama made a stimulus plan to help the people and businesses that need help. Any other president would have done the same thing. Bush had a stimulus plan just a year ago and he was not called a socialist. Obama's slogan was Change and it was Hope but that does not mean the hope or the change to socialism.
"Tea Baggers" are insane! I read a blog about the Tea Bagging march in San Diego and there were a lot of interesting quotes on the page, they say "That's not the fist time the liberals in the media have chosen to ignore and demean you." They claim that all media is controlled by "liberal extremist" and a lot believe that Obama is a socialist. They all agree that Obama's taxes are too high and that they think it needs to stop.
Obama is not the first president to be called a socialist however, plenty of other presidents have been called a socialist. When I googled Socialist presidents in America, I saw a lot about the GOP calling Obama a socialist. They say that his economic plan is going to lead to a large deficit that will last until 2013 and will not start to go up until after that. Everyone seems to be calling Obama a socialist because of his stimulus plan but it seems that they do not take into account Bush's stimulus plan which was proposed just a year and a half ago, remember, point a finger, you have three going back to you.
