Spending bill
People are complaining about the deficit that we are in because of thing like this where we are spending 1.1 trillion dollars to increase the budget for federal programs. While a lot of these programs need the money I believe the government need to weight the pros and cons of each program and decide which ones need the money the most in oreder to cut back on spending.
12 law enforcment
I feel that in most cases the procedure that the cops have to go through actually holds them back because of the time it takes to get warrents. So i think that this should be modified so that the cops can get warrents quicker if the situation permits it otherwise the set that we have now works.

I think that while the supreme court is suppose to be unaffected by politics it is ok that they have different backgrounds on the court to provide the best decision possible because each judge would be able to bring in a different view point on the decision being made.

The question of war prisoners has risen and I think that they should not be tried in a court or given rights when they are not citizens of that country. If anything they deserve a fair trial but one that is modified for their situation due to the facts that most juries would rule againt them no matter what.

I believe that Obama is doing the right thing by increasing the troops in Afghanistan because not only do the troops already there need help but the people there also want the US there to help maintain control. Also he is doing the right thing because the he is listening to his commanders that are there so this shows that he trust our troops in doing what is required to get the job done.

Just recently an american girl was convicted of murder in Italy and found guilty, yet an american lawyer says that the media followed this story so closely the the girl did not have a fair ruling by the jury. I was wondering if she would be able to appeal the case to the supreme court even thought the event happened in Italy

Congress and voting
I think that congress should vote for what would best benefit their district because those are the people that they are representing even if the congressmen does not feel the same about the issue. Also they should vote for the things as their district wants because they were elected based on how closely their values were to the people of their district.
