Updates & Changes!
Folks I figured it was about time for a new look for the news posts, and this was just what I was looking for! I hope that this shows up fine, and I would like to point out a few new features. Also some that are coming soon!
First of all as you can see the news blog is gone but not really. You can find it again by pressing on the blog link, on the link bar! Next is the Facebook group I have made especially for the fans of "Choopy & Friends." I also should have a twitter here soon (update that when it comes up!)

The new things coming in the future; new Archives, and boy oh boy it is getting close. I am almost about to post those. I think Friday or Monday at the latest. As you can see you can now tag the comic and come back to the last one you were at, fun fun!
I am goanna be working on an RSS feed today to see if I can get that working. That is, right after I get the twitter going and make sure the blog is correctly linked!
Have fun on the site and I hope to see some awesome new improvements soon!

The big Rant!
Okay, first off I would like to say that for most people politics is important and for an even greater amount of people they would like to care less. But for everyone there is an opinion on someone inside the office or another.
Here is mine...
I can understand that people like Obama and his plan for the country, what I can’t understand is why they would think that he actually wanted to become president. You can see it all over his face an his carrier, he was not ready for the white house and he knew it. The problem was that he went into the election on the tail end of a fed up country tired of voting for the lesser of two evils and a generation of voters that had nothing better to do then to vote for the "Coolest" presidential candidate. I know this cause I am part of that generation that said, "Hey you voting?"
"What for Idol? That show is really going downhill."
"No man for president?"
"Um, not really I could care less whether old guy 1 of 2 gets into office and rises taxes, subsequently raising our minimum wage, leaving us in a stale mate as to our economic problems."
"Well have I got news for you! Obama, man. He'll change the Whitehouse, because he is young and cool!"
"I don't know dude, we got a big economy problem about to happen what is he saying about the whole tax and min wage things?"
"Tax cuts and spending for economic growth."
"I can see that, that would get anyone the office after the rut we have been in."
"So you’re voting Obama 2008?"
"Hell No!"
"McCain?"
"Naw, libertarian."
"Ah."
That was me and a girl who was all Obama will Change the Future of our kids. I almost voted for him just so I could look like the kind of yuppie idiot that she would go out with. I didn't though so I'm good. I really don't think that anything he said on the campaign trail would have gone over at all had it not been for the list of presidential candidates in the past. The closest thing to him on any of the other ballots would have been Al Gore. He has become the Steve jobs of the political world. still doing stuff but the only people who care are the ass holes who like to hear themselves talk about how they are better than everyone else and will always be that way. Obama is more like Bill Gates, he's popular but doesn't flant it and actually knows how to make the things he uses work.
The media has been on Obama lately for "selling out" or Changing what his policies are. I don't think that that should be hyped as much as it has, they're really just twisting what they know to be true to sell papers(problem is, it works) but what people should understand is that Obamas got a hard job. and he went in guns a blazing. He found out that that was not going to work, so he changed his game plan. I don't feel like he's wrong or right, because I haven’t seen his whole plan and sometimes the first few plays let you know how the team is goanna play the game. He didn't know the rules, but he does now and he is working it like a pro!
That doesn't excuse his inexperience. He left the senate before he gained the amount of respect that he would need in the oval office. He probably thought he would get a few votes and then stay in the senate, later coming out in the real crisis to be the big savor. Course he had to change his plans when he started to win. I also think that he started to believe that he really was change and "yes we can!" (Obama the Builder!)
As far as this country goes, we have no loyalty to anything. I know that we could never really be, "I am an American!" but we could be Texans and Nevadans and Oregonians, loyalty to one’s own state would allow for politicians who would actually be able to get things done right.
Right now each person who represents each state cares about expanding their carrier, not what’s good for their state. Which means instead of caring about the opinions of the state they represent, they throw in with other state opinions and senators, so that they can get to be president. They ignore what their state wants them to do, and when you represent a state you represent the whole state and every decision you make effects that state. Not the little cities the small towns, all of it.
What I think it is, the people in office have no idea that their ideas and actions reflect the state they represent and the people they speak for. They are small men and woman on to big a stage and they can’t see the audience they affect. They only see the other actors.
We need people like the founding fathers who would want what’s best for their state and are disinterested in what other states want, but are willing to work together with each other for the benefit of all. And a president who wants what is best for the whole country.

New Archives.... yay...
Sick artist is sick...
The new Archives are being evil so I might put up the old ones. I don't know I would really like to get this to work. But it means you all have to go without on of the basic all important features of any respectable webcomic.
