Awesomest Day EVER!!

Now we can get to the real news!

Russia's moving their missiles to the Baltic near Poland to neutralize the planned American anti-missile shield in Poland....cold war anyone?

Croatia to become part of the European Union in 2011. They will become the bloc's 28th member state. The EU also said that Turkey needs to boost reforms and open up political freedoms to be accepted.

President-elect Obama has chosen Rahm Emmanuel, the Democratic Rep. from Illinois, to be his chief of staff (I love this guy!!)

Hamid Karzai has held a press conference accusing the American govt of bombing a wedding party killing 37 people including 23 children, by US warplanes.

A Hamas military commander has reported an Israeli strike in Gaza killing six Palestinians.

For the first time ever, scientists have decoded all of the genes of a person with cancer and have found a set of mutations that have caused the disease or aided in its progression. The study was done at Washington University in St. Louis.

The Colombian army commander resigns in a scandal over the killings of civilians.

A plane crash kills Mexico's Interior Minister and point man on the Drug Wars.

Proposition 8 in California is likely to pass, overturning the right to marry for Gay couples. There's so much I would like to write about this, maybe i'll dedicate an entire post to it.

Anyways thats all the news I care to write about at this moment in time. I would just like to end by saying that in all of my almost 19 years, there has never been a more inspiring day, Barack Hussein Obama is the 44th President of the United States of America. And after all of the celebration and partying ends, it is not just the duty of the media, but all of our jobs to hold his feet to the fire and make sure he delivers on what he's been promising.
