GM Bankrupt?



The car giant GM is on the brink of becoming bankrupt even though they have already received a 20 billion dollar government bailout. The CEO of General Motors does not want to receive yet another bailout so they have purposed a plan to axe several popular brands that they make including Pontiac, Hummer, Saturn and Saab. I don't know how you get 20 billion dollars and still are about to go bankrupt. But that's just me.

Supreme Court Pick


Sonia Sotomayor has been a federal judge on the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit. Now President Obama has nominated Judge Sotomayor for appointment to Judge David Souter's vacant supreme seat after he announced he was retiring. She has graduated Yale Law School. They have not confirmed Judge Sotomayor and is still on the line. The decision has to be passed by congress.
If this passes it will be a big step for Ethnic Rights and women rights.
