The Quote Of All-Time

"Everything you do closes a door somewhere ahead of you."
This is a quote from one of Cormac McCarthy's award winning novels. What he means by this quote is that as soon as you do one thing, other things are not available to you. Also, he means that everything you do has consequences. For example, if you were to commit a crime, it depletes your chances of becoming a police officer and you will go to jail. I chose this quote because it is the basis that really guides life and is made example of by people choices throughout history. I also chose this quote because it is open to a lot of controversy. For instance, many people think that not everything they do has consequences.

SPAIN 1 McKINLEY 0

MCKINLEY GETS HIT HARD

Señor Don Enrique Dupuy de Lôme, Spanish ambassador in Cuba, speaks out against the United States. He called our people "weak and defenseless." De Lome says that he is having so much success and fun stealing money right from our sugar plantations in Cuba. The United States has already lost over 700,000 dollars. Not to mention that sugar is the main reson we are in Cuba. Above all, he has attacked our president by calling him "a child who should not be near any political people, led alone run a country."

It is our job as American citizens to not take this sitting down. Our country, Our Leader, is being verbally attacked from a country that is in no comparison to our strong nation. So tell your friends, neighbors, and even your neighbors friends to spread the word that our country needs take action in Cuba and stop the Spanish control. Unless you would enjoy living in a poor, useless country.
