President Obama's speech today

If you didn't know, President Obama is speaking to the U.N. General Assembly today and will reportedly tell them that "America can't go at it alone."

While I haven't been particularly excited about everything (though I've been excited by somethings) the President has done since January, this is a good step.

A part of the challenge (really the biggest challenge) of the 21st century is taking the relics and fossils (those are insults) who ran the world in the 20th century and modernizing -- or eliminating -- them.

This is going to sound very, ummm, socialist but it's where we are. For too long, we've worried about our particular country and not about our planet.

I'm not one to jump on one craze after another just because it's in, but this is as great, magnicificent, innovative, troublesome and dark a time as we've had in world history.

We're on the precipice of either harmony and greatness or chaos and folly. The line between the two is very thin and I believe President Obama is making the right step today. His political experience may be lacking, but I believe Obama is up to the task.

Is it bold and controversial? Sure. But, the only way to change things is to attack the status quo and we all know that change doesn't come without struggle, strife and conflict.

Still, it's necessary. Props to President Obama for having the courage to do it.
