Now is a good time to be reinformed about the despicable plan to create a North American Union, which would unite the United States, Canada, and Mexico into one political and economic union, similar to the European Union across the pond. It would end the United States as we know it, and run over the sovereignty of our great country like a runaway express train. Here are some videos, posted on YouTube regarding this extremely important issue. YouTube at recent has at least 2,390 videos on the subject, so I will post some from time-to-time on this subject. I would encourage all of you to inform yourself on this issue as much as possible. It will be a crucial, leading, and defining issue for our country for the foreseeable future. The first step in doing anything about it is informing yourself, then you can take whatever actions possible. Your future, and the future of the generations after you, are at stake in the last great hope for man - America.
By the way, Republicans should be disappointed that they preferred John McCain over Mitt Romney. In the third video, Romney says right out that a union of the three countries is not the right way to prosperity for America. Those who preferred McCain need to know that threats to America halfway across the world are still threats, but ones closer to home are even more serious right now. At this time, I am not certain to how McCain stands on the NAU issue, but signs may point to him being in favor of it. When I know more on how McCain stands on this issue, I will post it here.

TORNADO STRIKES DOWNTOWN ATLANTA; AT LEAST TWO DEAD AND 20 INJURED, PEOPLE MAY BE MISSING.

Atlanta Hawks nest, was shredded in places.

An apparent tornado struck downtown Atlanta Friday night, hitting the South's biggest city at a very busy time. The SEC and ACC basketball tournaments were being held in the Georgia Dome as the winds howled outside. Catwalks and scoreboards inside the dome were actually swaying from the wind, scaring thousands of fans to shelter.
Hotels and skyscrapers saw many windows blown out, and debris coated the streets. The CNN Center was hit with roof and window damage. Tarps covered computers in the network's newsroom. The Omni hotel adjacent to the CNN Center had major window damage, and furniture from upper floors was sucked out of the building. At Centennial Olympic Park, torch-resembling towers were blown over. The city's distinctive high-rise, the 73-story Westin Peachtree Plaza hotel, was marked with scores of destroyed windows. The Georgia Dome's canvas roof was pierced in some spots. The Philips Arena was also hit hard, with pieces of metal from its facade torn off, and blown onto the street in front of the CNN Center.
Just east of downtown, twenty houses were demolished in the Georgia capital's historic Cabbagetown district. The storm demolished the top floor of the Fulton Cotton Mill Lofts, a 104-year-old textile factory complex turned into apartments. Some were believed to be missing there, but search attempts proved that false.
Two people were killed by the storms in areas north of Atlanta.

McCAIN HAS GOP NOMINATION OFFICIALLY WRAPPED UP, ATTENTION MOVES TO RUNNING-MATE SELECTION. Who do you prefer as McCain's No. 2? Vote on it here.
Arizona Senator John McCain locked up the Republican nomination Tuesday night when he swept the contests in Ohio, Texas, Rhode Island, and Vermont being held that day. With that, he has now grabbed the number of delegates he needs for the nomination, and the focus now shifts to who McCain will choose to be his vice-presidential running-mate in a decision that will probably be announced in the early summer.
At least 25 or so individuals are being thrown around as speculated choices. His eventual choice will likely have to appear much younger than him, appeal more to the conservative base, and will have to be believed to be able to step in the President's role if necessary. On the left, I have posted the 20 names most put up as likely candidates, while at the same time more serious candidates than some that are being published. I would encourage you to vote who you would prefer to see McCain pick. Out of those 20, chances are very high that one of them will be the Senator's choice to fill the number-two spot on the GOP ticket this election cycle.
A listing of McCain's top-24 potential picks

Phils' Clubhouse Prank Turns into Overnight YouTube Sensation!
It looks like the 2007 National League East Champs (and my team) are ready for 2008!
Philadelphia Phillies' veteran pitcher Brett Myers managed to get the whole clubhouse, managers, and the Philadelphia press into duping second-year Phils' pitcher Kyle Kendrick into believing he was traded to a Japanese team.
The elaborate practical joke only started in the clubhouse, but became an overnight internet sensation.
It looks like my team is ready to go for '08! Ready to defend the NL East crown, and take it even further!

Death Toll Continues To Rise In Deadliest U.S. Tornado Outbreak In 23 Years. Homes, Universities, Shopping Malls, Natural Gas Pumping Stations Among The Devastated Buildings. President Bush To Visit Damaged Areas Friday.
Tuesday was supposed to be a day dominated by the results of the Super Tuesday primaries, news of how the U.S. Presidential race is shaping up.
However, something much more darker and deadly quickly grabbed its place in the minds of America.
The deadliest severe weather outbreak in 23 years slammed America's Southern and Midwest states, killing at least 55 and injuring over 300. The storms destroyed houses, retirement homes, post offices, a shopping mall, and a natural gas pumping station, among other places.
The hardest hit areas were: Aiken, Arkansas; Memphis, Jackson, Hardin County, Williamson County, Sumner County, and Macon County, all in Tennessee; and communities in northern Alabama and south-central Kentucky.
Probably the most blessed area of the night was metro Nashville, Tennessee. A deadly tornado struck in an area to the southwest, around Fairview in Williamson County. The storm's funnel pulled back up as it approached the city of Nashville. The supercell continued to cross over the city, and dropped its funnel again after passing over Nashville's Davidson County. That funnel stayed on the ground for 51 miles, passing through Sumner, Macon, and Trousdale counties in Tennessee, and continuing on through Allen County, Kentucky. That tornado alone killed at least 27 people.
Below is a photo essay of the disaster. For stories and videos, click the links below. May God be with all who suffered great loss in these areas. They are certainly in America's thoughts and prayers! For those in these regions, I just want to encourage you all to keep the faith! You will bounce back, swiftly and better than before, because you have faith in the Almighty above, and a strong Puritian work-ethic based on your faith. We stand with you as you try your hardest to recover.

DEVELOPING WEATHER STORY
FEBRUARY SEVERE WEATHER BLASTS THROUGH MIDWEST, MIDSOUTH; AT LEAST 23 REPORTED DEAD, OVER 100 INJURED.
Springlike severe thunderstorms, many including tornadoes, blew through a large swath of the Midsouth Tuesday night, and is continuing to threaten portions of the region.
At least 23 are confirmed dead at this time, and over 100 are injured across Arkansas, Tennessee, Kentucky, and other neighboring states in a storm system bizarre for this time of year.
Seven of those deaths are in northern Arkansas, and at least six others died across the state. Widespread damage is reported across that state.
Tennessee is another very hard-hit state. A tornadic thunderstorm blew through the metropolitian Memphis area during the early evening. It destroyed a warehouse building, damaged a Caterpillar plant, and caused serious damage to the Hickory Ridge Mall, where a wall and the roof of a Sears store were heavily damaged. At least one fatility has been reported at Hickory Ridge. A hangar at Memphis International Airport that was occupied by the National Guard had its roof torn off. FedEx Corp. reported damage to some of its facilities at the airport in its hometown.
From there the storm followed Interstate 40 to Jackson, Tenn., where widespread damage was reported. Dorm buildings at Union University were reduced to rubble, trapping at least nine and injuring others. Classes at Union will reportedly be cancelled for two weeks to deal with the damage. At least 50 people were trapped in the damaged Jackson Oaks retirement home. Other damage was reported, as well, across West Tennessee, where at least four fatalities occured. Three other deaths were reported elsewhere in the Volunteer State.
The storms paraded across West and Middle Tennessee, and wreaked havoc in the areas around Nashville during the early night hours. The Columbia Natural Gas facility in Hartsville, Trousdale County, was slammed by a reported tornado, setting it on fire and throwing flames up to 500 feet into the air. The light from the fire was seen in all surrounding counties.
In Kentucky, three were reportedly killed when storms blasted a mobile home park in Muhlenberg County.
The storms interfered with Super Tuesday voting, as Arkansas, Missouri, Illinois and Tennessee were all holding their Presidential primaries. Presidential candidates Mike Huckabee, a former governor of Arkansas, and Hillary Clinton, a previous Arkansas First Lady, all expressed condolances to those who have been affected by Tuesday's serious weather condition.
This is a developing story, as tornadic thunderstorms are still pushing through a stretch of the country from Ohio, through Middle Tennessee, and into Mississippi.

McCAIN, CLINTON WIN BIG ON COASTS; ROMNEY, OBAMA TAKE INTERIOR STATES; HUCKABEE DOES WELL IN SOUTH.
AM CST, Feb. 6
The bottom line of the results in Tuesday's nearly national primary can be found in the headline. This won't be an in-depth article. We'll just cover the facts here and leave the in-depth spin up to the press.
REPUBLICANS
Arizona Senator John McCain got pretty much all the wins he wanted tonight. There was no suprises for his states. A bigger suprise was how well Former Arkansas Governor Mike Huckabee did in the five states he won. Former Massachusetts Governor Mitt Romney did not have a disastrous night either, but just barely missed in important opportunities such as Georgia, Tennessee, Missouri, Delaware, and it looks like California.
