State of The Union

Here is an interesting article on the State of the Union that President Bush gave tonight at the white house. In the address Bush stated that there are now 122 democracies in the world. He also said that we should not forget about the countries that are not yet democracies. I personally think that democracies are a great idea, but we may have to stop and ask ourselves if were over stepping our bounds trying to make everyone just like us. Maybe we should like developing countries develop like we did and let them take the natural progression into a democratic state, just something to ponder. Bush hit on major, political issues like the war, NSA wiretapping, taxes, health care, and the rising oil prices. It’s a good article to read with lots of current issues.
