Below, I wrote what a torture indictment for American generals/policy makers would look like in the International Court. I specifically am focusing on the incidents/actions at Abu Ghraib.

I just wanted to share with you all a youtube video that I watched after hearing about it on NPR this morning. The song is sung by a street singer, Roger Ridley, from Santa Monica, California. The story of the song takes off from there.

This is not a political diary. This is not a personal diary. This is a diary so that all of us can experience and feel something that we would like to hold on to for a very long time.

Newspapers around the county have stated that Mount Redoubt in Alasks has erupted, sending plumes of smoke 50,000 feet in the air. 50,000!!!

Mt Redoubt Erupts

Here are some interesting quotes from the article:

fine gray dust was falling Monday morning on small communities north of Anchorage

The young, the elderly and people with respiratory problems are especially susceptible to ash-related health problems.

The ash can also causes problems in planes.

Thank God we are all on the same page and see the need of monitoring volcanos. Thank God we all agree on the necessity for funds to be given to such programs.

Oh!!! Wait a minute!!! Haven't we heard mocking of such programs?! Who from? Who from?

Not for president, but for the advisory board of my township in Indiana. The Republicans have had a stronghold on the board for the last few elections. The board is made up up one advisor from each of the seven pricincts in the township. For the last two elections, all the advisors have been republicans. Last election, the Republican candidate won by a margin of 2,000 to 1,300. However, I believe I would be able to run a strong campaign with time, effort, and money. Here is how I think I can do it.

I know this is a short diary and not politic related, but we all need to say a prayer about the Continenal commuter plane that crashed into a house outside of Buffalo, NY. Reports indicate that 48 people were on the plane and two people on the ground are injured.

Out of respect for the departed, I will not post pictures of the inferno. It's horrible and tragic.

Let us pray for those that died, those that are injured, and their loved ones.

Former Bush Chief of Staff. Andy Card, recently stated that President Obama should put his jacket on while in the oval office. Mr. Card stated:

there should be a dress code of respect

and that President Obama should

wear a suit coat and tie

He went further, which gave me my own little "are you effin kidding me" moment.

The Oval Office symbolizes...the Constitution, the hopes and dreams, and I’m going to say democracy

Really? Seriously. Really?

Let's refresh your memory Mr. Card with a quick overview of the Bush years.

Like many, I have been following the first week of the Obama presidency regarding the stimulus package and Congress's reaction to it. Many are complaining that he needs to "flex some muscle" to the Republicans and not cave in. Folks....he is, just not in the way that Americans are used to. He told the Republicans to their faces: "I won." You would think that some would interpret that as him using his victory as a blank check to do as he pleases. However, he has sat down with the repubs and made it clear that he will listen to them, but doesn't have to agree and will in the long run do what he wants to do.

Two movies stick out in my mind when I think about the last week, especially the passed few days: Rocky IV and Miracle. Keep in mind that I believe Obama is in just beginning the campaign for 2012 and to win the hearts of Americans.
