whitney burnette said… Oh my gosh, Elizabeth Edwards died last week. She had been battling cancer since her loser husband John Edwards ran for office back in 2004. (Oh and he dropped out I might add). She was a wonderful person, and stood by her husband through both times he ran for office. Back in 2007 she thought that the cancer gone, but is came back untreatable. Elizabeth Edwards died Tuesday after a six year fight with cancer, she was only 61. She will live on in out hearts forever, she was a true humanitarian. My prayers go out to the Edwards Family, may GOD be with you..! <3
I read about a ancient statue discovered in Israel. It was unearthed after a storm hit, and broke away part of a cliff it was burried in. The ancient statue was said to date back all the way to the Roman Period! Its over 2,000 years old! The statue is of a women without any arms, or head. A passer-by discoverd the statue as he was walking along the beach. What an amazing discovery!
The new congress is now in session the republicans now control . the house of representives one new republican is adam k she is from illinois . this person was 19 years old when he joined the goverment board. adam kinzinger is goodlooking ;), modest :) and is also a HERO!!! . I think that is good to have them aslong as they made the right desicions for our country!! :D
