Four Locos, One Genius

I actually enjoyed reading Cooley's commentary. She writes in a way that makes it more interesting and easier to read. That's good since I find politics quite dull. I liked the analogy she used about the person in self realization and then directs in towards the U.S. Government. She gives a brief background of the hierarchy of Maslow's needs and makes it easier to understand how it relates to the government.
Don't ask, Don't tell is brought up and while it is an issue that is important right now and is in the spotlight, I agree that it's really not at all that important compared to the other issues surrounding us such as the outrageous national debt and the still ongoing war. I thought the idea of manufacturing American made goods thus creating more jobs was a great idea. Also bringing up the fact that we did do this in WWII and how it improved the economy was a nice way of showing that we've done it before and it worked so why not try it?
