Wednesday News

There was not a lot of interesting news today but I did see there were a couple of stories relating to gays. Iraq is having violence break out due to people coming out saying they are gay. Many religions do not allow same sex marriage therefore they take it very seriously. Vermont being the first state to allow gay marriages definitely deserved to be on the front page because it has been an issue for many states with gays trying to get a bill passed. This is a very big deal in the gay community because now people do not have to travel to Canada to get married. Also with passing the bill, many others states will be encouraged to pass a bill allowing gay marriages.
With more intriguing news, Obama went to Iraq to declare his actions to end the war. The picture that were posted with the story were just moving. Seeing the soldiers faces when Obama was in the room was unforgettable. It was a feeling that makes people feel everything will be okay and things will get better.
