The honest structure of our concerns is out standing.

Sounds very Presidential.

Once again President Obama must step up to the plate and give voice to what this season should mean to us. This address is for our fighting soldiers and the poor.  He is calling for, if we can, we should help out.  I did just that.  I have very limited funds, but at least I have a job.  I decided this year to help out the food bank.  Food is something in our country should not have a problem with.  But, we do and we need to get food and commodities to our soldiers and poor.  I firmly believe that this disaster will too pass and how we help will determine whether it pass quickly or slowly. more about "12/24/08 President-elect Obama's Week...", posted with vodpod

Michelle and I have them in our prayers this Christmas, and we must all continue to offer them our full support in the weeks and months to come.These are also tough times for many Americans struggling in our sluggish economy. As we count the higher blessings of faith and family, we know that millions of Americans don’t have a job. Many more are struggling to pay the bills or stay in their homes. From students to seniors, the future seems uncertain.That is why this season of giving should also be a time to renew a sense of common purpose and shared citizenship. Now, more than ever, we must rededicate ourselves to the notion that we share a common destiny as Ameri...

They should’ve green-screened him in the Oval Office, it would’ve looked more professional. They got him looking like he’s set up in the waiting area of a funeral parlor (you see them plastic plants?).Posted in NEWS   Tagged: address, holidays, president obama, troops, Youtube
