When Sally Field received her second Academy Award for Best Actress, she said, “You like me, right now, you like me!”
The rest of the world wants to like the United States. It was difficult for many people around the world to like the country that was led by George W. Bush. He refused to adopt the Kyoto Protocols. He refused to negotiate with Iran or North Korea. He used the 9/11 attack as an excuse to invade Iraq, which was not responsible for that attack. Americans ridiculed France for refusing to join the unjust invasion of Iraq. In 2004, Americans even re-elected Bush. Bush's bad economic policies caused a recession in the United States, and the bad American economy harmed other economies around the world.
But, in 2008, the Americans elected Barack Obama as their new president. This proved to the rest of the world that Americans had awakened to the mistakes of Bush, and they had overcome the old racial prejudices.
Barack Obama displayed his wisdom and good judgment to Germany and France in 2008. Obama's speech in Berlin attracted an audience of 200,000 people. As the new President, Obama offered reconciliation to Iranian TV. He also gave a great speech in Egypt. The world was seeing the end of Bush's cowboy manners, and a return to a more enlightened foreign policy.
On this basis, the Nobel committee awarded the 2009 Nobel Peace Prize to Barack Obama. Although Obama has not yet achieved great success in international relations, the committee—and the world—have great expectations for him.
Conservative organizations have been organizing their followers to attend and disrupt the town hall meetings that Congressional members have been holding in their districts. A list of instructions has been written, giving protesters a set of helpful hints on disrupting the speaker and preventing the speaker from giving his message to the audience.
In the past, many protesters have held meetings at which the protesters gave speeches that presented their own messages. In the past, some protesters attended their opponents' speeches and held up protest signs to indicate their disagreement. But this new technique is intended to PREVENT the opponent from giving his message. Instead of providing an additional, alternative viewpoint, this technique is intended to stop the discussion and silence the opposition.
People who have organized other protests have learned that it is difficult to recruit large numbers of people to join protests. Only highly motivated people join political protests. Why are large numbers of people so highly motivated to join a protest movement against health insurance reform?
I think that part of the motivation is that corporations with vested interest in the status quo, such as insurance companies and pharmaceutical corporations, have spent millions of dollars to advertise opposing arguments to the public; and they have also paid millions of dollars in campaign contributions to politicians.
But I think that part of the opposition to health insurance reform is actually just anti-Obama hatred. Senator DeMint said that the health insurance issue could be Obama's Waterloo.
Conservatives have always disliked liberals; but in 2009, the conservatives have been especially angry.
Who are these new protesters? I have seen these protests in Arkansas, Florida, Missouri, Pennsylvania, and Texas. In the news videos, most of the protesters are middle-aged, and some are elderly.
All of them are white.
I believe that the this new, higher level of conservative anger is largely fueled by white racism. These conservatives would be unhappy with any Democratic president, but they are particularly angry and unwilling to accept the legitimacy of Barack Obama's presidency because Obama is half African-American. These protesters are actually the people who are unhappy about the outcome of the Civil War.
There is a famous comment that “Politics is show business for ugly people.” While politicians are not physically less attractive than the average middle-aged person, they do not usually have movie-star good looks.
Notable exceptions have been John Kennedy, Ronald Reagan, Arnold Schwarzenegger, and Sarah Palin. Reagan and Schwarzenegger have, indeed, been movie stars!
And Sarah Palin's beauty-contest good looks and charm have been great assets for her political career. During her farewell speech on July 26, 2009, I noticed her arm-waving gestures behind the speaker's podium; and that reminded me of another politician whose political career soared after taking lessons from a drama coach.
Sarah Palin has a bachelor's degree in Communications and early experience as a TV sportscaster. She will now host a radio show, but that is not the best medium for her. Sarah Palin is so pretty that she will be much more effective on TV. I doubt that MSNBC would hire her, but I would think that Fox News would love to have her!
Can Sarah Palin return to elected office? It is possible. She is only 45 years old, so she could still be a candidate for office during the next 20 years. She is extremely conservative, so she could be elected to the House of Representatives, U.S. Senate, or Governor of Alaska. If she ran for President or Vice President, she could possibly win the Republican nomination. Palin has proven to be great as a Republican fund-raiser. However, she has so little support among Democratic voters and independents that she would probably lose a general election. Many Democrats are hoping that Sarah Palin will be the Republican presidential candidate in 2012, because she will be easy to beat!
When Barack Obama became President of the United States, the Republican Party decided to become the Party of “No.”
When President Obama appointed Sonia Sotomayer to become the next Supreme Court justice, the Party of No decided to vote “No” on that appointment.
Today, in the confirmation hearing, Senator Jon Kyl of Arizona grilled Judge Sotomayer about the “wise Latina” phrase that Sotomayer had used in speeches that she had given to law students.
Judge Sotomayer was a District Court Judge for 6 years, and she has been an Appeals Court Judge for almost 11 years. She has ruled in thousands of cases and written hundreds of opinions, but Senator Kyl is not asking about her judicial activity. That would require a lot of homework, and Kyl might not find anything in her judicial activity that Kyl can use against her.
As a member of the Party of No, Senator Kyl has already decided to vote “No” on Sotomayor's nomination. Now, he is searching for a reasonable excuse for his “No” vote.
Some news anchors have speculated about the number of senators that will vote in favor of Sotomayor's nomination. Is that really of any importance? We already know that 40 senators belong to the Party of No, so we cannot really expect many of them to vote for Sotomayor. Perhaps the most interesting results will be those of the Republican senators who are up for reelection in 2010: Shelby (AL), Murkowski (AK), McCain (AZ), Martinez (FL), Isakson (GA), Crapo (ID), Grassley (IA), Brownback (KS), Bond (MO), Gregg (NH), Burr (NC), Voinovich (OH), Coburn (OK), DeMint (SC), Thune (SD), and Bennett (UT). I know that Martinez has already announced that he will not be running for reelection, and Gregg has said that he might not run for reelection.
In order to be a Republican, follow these rules:
Advocate tax cuts—especially for high-income people and corporations, and especially for capital gains income.
Praise Jesus, and say that everything you do is in the name of Christianity.
In foreign affairs, say that every other country should yield to the will of the United States.
Threaten to use American military power to force other counties to comply with American policies.
Oppose abortion.
Advocate domestic policies that help American corporations make higher profits.
Oppose domestic policies that help labor unions.
Oppose domestic policies that force corporations to reduce their air or water pollution.
Oppose affirmative action laws.
Never admit that the theory of evolution is correct—or, at least, that it applies to humans. Insist that the schools teach Creationism or Intelligent Design.
Advocate using public education funds to subsidize parochial, private, and charter schools.
Advocate tax laws that encourage American corporations to offshore their work to foreign countries, where employee salaries are lower.
Oppose any health care program that would compete with health insurance corporations.
Oppose any restriction on the sale or ownership of firearms.
If any Democratic politician commits marital infidelity, demand that he resign from office.
If you are caught committing marital infidelity, say that God has asked you to remain in office.
Label any government-run enterprise “socialism”--except for the U.S. Postal Service, police department, fire department, water department, highway department, street department, public library, and public schools.
Watch Fox News. As a Republican, you probably already believe that white people are better than colored people; that Christianity is better than Islam, Judaism, or atheism; and that taxation is unfair. When you see the people on Fox News repeat these beliefs, that will give you the excuse that you have been seeking in order to justify your beliefs.
If the current President is a Republican:
Encourage every citizen to support the President.
Say that Congress should give the President all of the power that he needs.
If the President's budget uses misleading accounting methods to camouflage the actual deficit, don't say anything.
If the current President is a Democrat:
Say that the President is a dictator.
Say that the federal government is too powerful, and more power should be transferred to the states.
Say that the President's budget is too wasteful.
The United States of America needs a new national anthem. “The Star Spangled Banner” is a patriotic poem, written about the Battle of Baltimore during the War of 1812, and designated our national anthem in 1931. However, it is impractical.
“The Star Spangled Banner” contains notes that are too difficult for most people to sing. A national anthem should be easy to sing.
“The Star Spangled Banner” contains several awkward phrases that are difficult for many people to remember. How many times have you attended a sporting event, and listened as a singer--hired to sing the national anthem before the game began--forgot the correct song lyrics?
We need a national anthem that is not only easy to sing, but a song that contains lyrics that are easy to remember. It should be easy to sing along with the national anthem!
The United States has a population of 300 million people, including many talented songwriters. I propose that we have a national songwriting contest to help us choose a new national anthem. I think that this would be much more important than “American Idol.”
During the first 100 days of the Obama presidency we have seen outstanding leadership in tackling the many issues facing our great nation. And it seems that overwhelming poll numbers indicate that America agrees with President Obama. see THE WHITE HOUSEThe question remains; What can we as fellow Americans do to help our neighbors and countrymen? Included are nine things you can do to help the President celebrate his first 100 Days in office:1. Donate unused suits to the Salvation Army2. Donate time to Americorps3. Donate toys for children at Toys for Tots4. Donate blood at the Red Cross5. Donate a can of food each week to a Local Shelter or Food Pantry6. Donate money to Save the Children7. Donate time at local a Veterans Hospital8. Donate an hour a day to your Child9. Donate to the Make a Wish FoundationParticipation is greatly appreciated.

Barack Obama First 100 Days posted by David Apperson
All Hail the Mighty State: Texas Independence Day
173 years ago, George C. Childress hurriedly composed a document at Washington-on-the-Brazos while only 150 miles away, the Alamo was under a brutal and ultimately fatal attack by the Mexican army. The document, which was written overnight at a hastily formed convention of Texas leaders, accused the Mexican goverment of ceasing to protect the lives, liberty, and property of the people of Texas. It became the Texas Declaration of Independence.
…the people of Texas do now constitute a free, Sovereign, and independent republic, and are fully invested with all the rights and attributes which properly belong to independent nations; and, conscious of the rectitude of our intentions, we fearlessly and confidently commit the issue to the decision of the Supreme arbiter of the destinies of nations.
And with those words, the people of the Republic of Texas declared independence from Mexico on this day, March 2, 1836.
The Texas War of Independence had begun half a year earlier, on October 5, 1835, with the defeat of the Mexican army at the Battle of Gonzales by armed Texians who refused to surrender a cannon — the famous “Come and Take It” cannon — to the Mexican government, as it was their only means of protection against Indian attacks on the settlement.
General Antonio López de Santa Anna, the recently-elected president of Mexico, had just the year before abolished the Constitution of 1824 — which very loosely governed Mexican territories, including Texas — and enacted a harsh, anti-federalist constitution in its place. The new constitution took away liberties to which most Texian settlers had become accustomed, required that they convert to Catholicism, tithe 10% of their earnings to the Roman Catholic church and created the state of Coahuila y Tejas out of the former territory, with its new capital hundreds of miles away from the former capital of San Antonio. Texian settlers were furious.
After winning the Battle of Gonzales, local leader Stephen F. Austin began to round up volunteers to form a Texian Army, much to the fury of General Santa Anna. They saw their first great victory at the Siege of Bexar on December 11, 1835, defeating the Mexican army and General Santa Anna’s own brother-in-law, General Martin Perfecto de Cos, despite being outnumbered two to one and having very little ammunition or training.
The War of Indpendence reached a fever pitch at the infamous Battle of the Alamo, where General Santa Anna himself led an offensive on the Texian army members who were garrisoned at the Alamo, a former mission in San Antonio that was being used as a military headquarters. Between February 23 and March 6, 1836, the small number of Texians inside fortified the Alamo and were able to hold off the waves of Mexican troops. Ultimately outnumbered by twelve to one, the Texians were finally slaughtered — including the famous Davy Crockett, William B. Travis, James Fannin and Jim Bowie — and only a handful of survivors were allowed to leave the destroyed mission. Susanna Dickinson was spared by General Santa Anna so that she could spread the word of the defeat to her fellow Texians.
The defeat didn’t have its intended effect, as the defiant cry “Remember the Alamo!” was used to rally the Texian army during what would be the final battle of the Texas Revolution: the Battle of San Jacinto. The revolution came to an end here in Houston in a short, vicious battle. Although lasting only 18 minutes, over 600 Mexican troops were killed by an army of 900 Texians and two cannons. General Santa Anna escaped from the lost battle that day, April 21, 1836, and formally surrendered after being hunted down by a search party (who recognized the president in part due to the fancy silk underwear he was wearing).
A month later, the Treaty of Velasco was signed by General Santa Anna and David G. Burnet (the interim president of the Republic of Texas, prior to Sam Houston taking the reins) at what is now Surfside Beach. The treaty formally ended the Texas Revolution and recognized the Republic of Texas as a sovereign nation. The Republic existed as an independent nation for ten years before being annexed by the United States as the 28th state in the union.
And while it’s not entirely true that Texas retains the right to split into five separate states at any time (really, any state can split if it wants to) and it’s not at all true that Texas retains the right to secede from the United States at any time, one important thing is true (aside from the fact that the federal government has no control over our land or oil reserves; only our state goverment does!): Texans are strong, proud people who fight for what they believe in.
Happy Texas Indepdence Day, y’all!

News Correspondent: I'm here in Afghanistan, where American troops have just captured a group of Taliban terrorists.
[A group of handcuffed men walk past the camera. They are all in their 20's, with long hair, full beards, and Afghan clothes—except for one man. That man is middle-aged, clean-shaved, with short, gray hair, and a business suit and tie.]
News Correspondent: Wait a minute—one of these men is different!
[The news correspondent walks up to the middle-aged man and points the microphone at him.]
News Correspondent: Excuse me, sir. Are you the leader of this Taliban terrorist group?
Sessions: No, I'm not a terrorist. I'm a Republican congressman from Texas.
News Correspondent: Why are you here with the Taliban?
Sessions: I'm on a fact-finding mission.
News Correspondent: What kind of facts are you getting?
Sessions: Insurgency techniques. Insurgency is a mindset and an attitude that we're going to have to search for and find ways to get our message out. Systematically understanding how to disrupt and change a person's entire processes.
News Correspondent: What is your message?
Sessions: LIVE, FROM NEW YORK—IT'S SATURDAY NIGHT !!!
Moderator Michael Steele sits in the chair on the right, facing Governor Bobby Jindal, who sits in the chair on the left. The two men lean forward.
Steele: And now, Governor, it's down to our final question! Here is the situation:
Banks are losing billions of dollars because homeowners are unable to make their mortgage payments.
The Big 3 automakers are losing billions of dollars, partly because they have to pay enormous amounts of health insurance premiums for their employees and their retirees.
The country is paying billions of dollars to foreign countries for crude oil.
And the question is, “How should we solve these problems?”
Here are your choices:
A) Refinance mortgages at lower interest rates.
B) Initiate a universal, national health care system.
C) Subsidize research into alternative fuel sources, mass transit systems, and infrastructure improvements.
D) Cut taxes.
And what is your answer, Governor? A, B, C, or D?
Would you like to phone a friend?
Jindal: I don't need to call anyone. The answer is easy. It's D--Cut taxes!!!
DING DING DING DING
Steele: THAT'S RIGHT!! D ---- CUT TAXES !!!!
Congratulations, Governor! You are our big winner! You get to give the Republican Party's response to the presidential address to Congress!!!!!!!
And what now, Governor?
Jindal: I'M GOING TO DISNEY WORLD !!!!!
These are some possible methods:
Eliminate any tax benefits that companies get for employing workers overseas.
Establish a universal national health care system that is government-supported, not employer-supported. Many other countries already do this; and therefore, United States companies are at a competitive disadvantage.
Insist on a fair exchange rate between our currency and foreign currencies—particularly the Chinese yuan.
Insist that tariffs and other trade restrictions between the United States and its trading partners be fair and reciprocal.
Insist that our trading partners respect all United States patents and copyrights.
Tom Daschle removed his name from consideration to be Obama's Secretary of HHS because Daschle had an income tax problem. After leaving the Senate a few years ago, Daschle went to work for a lobbing company; and his company provided him with a huge salary and a limousine, complete with a driver. We have learned that—until recently--Daschle had not paid any income tax on the value of that limousine service.
How did this happen? Every year, the lobbying firm that employed Daschle should have mailed two copies of Daschle's W-2 form: one copy to Daschle and one copy to the IRS. That W-2 form should have included Daschle's wages and the dollar value of Daschle's limousine service.
If Daschle's W-2 had included the dollar value of that limousine service, then the IRS would have known about it for each of those years, and I find it difficult to believe that the IRS would not have called Daschle in for an audit a few years ago.
Therefore, it appears that Daschle's lobbying firm had not reported the dollar value of Daschle's limousine service. It was not a cash payment, so Daschle would not have any paper trail of his fringe benefit.
Blame the lobbying firm for Daschle's tax problem. They provided Tom Daschle with a valuable fringe benefit; but by not reporting that benefit, they made that limo service an “under-the-table” payment.
Congratulations General on your appointment! Please let us know how we can help you!!! The American people will not turn their backs on you like the Bush Administration did.
WASHINGTON-- Retired four-star Gen. Eric K. Shinseki will face a daunting task if he is confirmed as the next secretary of the Veterans Affairs Department: getting soldiers returning from war into the workforce in a very troublesome employment climate.
Nearly 900,000 veterans have served in Iraq and Afghanistan, and they could have a hard time finding or keeping a job. Many have been in and out of the workforce because of multiple deployments, and others face the prospect of being deployed overseas again.
"The unemployment rate among veterans is high and dramatically increasing," said Paul Rieckhoff, an Iraq war veteran and head of the Iraq and Afghanistan Veterans of America, which President-elect Barack Obama's transition team has consulted informally. "We need to hear about job creation, and how we are going to get veterans out and to work."
Shinseki, whose confirmation hearing will be held Wednesday before the Senate Veterans Affairs Committee, will be expected to engage in a government-wide job creation strategy. The challenge will be especially daunting because of the numbers of military members who have returned recently from Iraq and Afghanistan, and the even greater number expected to return as America withdraws its fighting troops from Iraq.
Obama has instructed each of his Cabinet nominees to begin charting out job-creation strategies as part of his overall vision of generating more than 3 million jobs through a proposed $775 billion economic recovery package. In his weekly radio address on Saturday, Obama said 90 percent of the jobs would be created in the private sector.
His remarks came one day after the Labor Department announced the nation's unemployment rate rose to 7.2 percent in December, a loss of 524,000 jobs in a month. For all of 2008, the country lost a total of 2.6 million jobs.
WASHINGTON (AFP) — The US Army announced Thursday it has recalled 16,000 units of body armor after an audit determined they were not tested properly and posed a potential danger to soldiers.
The army vehemently contested the conclusions of the audit report by the Department of Defense's Office of Inspector General (DOD IG), which said three out of eight designs tested and approved by the army had actually failed testing.
But the department nevertheless pulled the protective gear as a precautionary measure.
The report "identified a range of issues involving Army testing processes and documentation dating back to 2007," the US Army said in a statement.
The Army stressed it had already identified problems raised by the inspector general and "moved aggressively to fix them," including instituting reforms to equipment testing.
"Out of more than 2,300 body armor tests conducted by the Army, the DoD IG is questioning three of them," Secretary of the Army Pete Geren said in the statement.
The Pentagon's Directorate of Operational Test and Evaluation, "the government's preeminent independent expert, says the plates passed those three tests," Geren said.
According to a copy of the DoD IG report released Thursday, the first-article testing meant to confirm the product meets US Army specifications "was not consistently conducted or scored in accordance with contract terms, conditions, and specifications."
"As a result, the Army does not have assurance that all inserts purchased under Contract 0040 provide the level of protection required," the report said, referring to the armor plates inserted into bullet-proof vests.
The army argued that the report implied the military issued defective armor plates to its troops.
"There is nothing more important than the safety of our soldiers, their confidence in their equipment, and America's confidence in their Army," Geren said in a statement.
"We think we utilized valid processes and we came to the correct conclusion," Brigadier General Peter Fuller, who oversees the equipment issued to Army soldiers, said during a conference call.
"We provide the best we can to our soldiers. No one has been killed because they have defective body armor," Fuller added. "Why is that? Because we don't issue defective body armor."

Meet Mitch Stewart: Organizing for America | Our new leadership
This week Barack Obama announced Organizing for America (OFA), the new group that will work alongside the President to support the agenda we fought so hard for.
David Plouffe recorded a video message with Mitch Stewart, the director of the new group, to explain how we can help make change a reality.
Take a minute to watch the video and get involved in Organizing for America:

We can build this movement from the ground up....to change our country.
Fired up, ready to go!
The Veterans Inaugural Committee, which is comprised of congressionally chartered veterans organizations, hosts a ball to honor Medal of Honor recipients, "heros" all. The 99 living Congressional Medal of Honor recipients were invited and 48 were present.
The Medal of Honor is the highest award for valor in action against an enemy force which can be bestowed upon an individual serving in the Armed Services of the United States. Generally presented to its recipient by the President of the United States of America in the name of Congress, it is often called the Congressional Medal of Honor.
Traditionally, the president and first lady visit as special guests, from time to time accompanied by the vice president and his wife. Members of the Joint Chiefs of Staff and leaders of the veterans groups also headline the guest list. This event has been an Inaugural tradition since 1953. This year there were no administration visits. However, LT. General James B. Peake was seated at the head table. General Peake recently served as the Department of Veterans Affairs Secretary under George Bush.
The American Legion sponsors the ball, which recognizes recipients of Medal of Honor, the nation’s highest military award. It started in 1953 for President Dwight D. Eisenhower’s first inauguration. Event co-sponsors include 13 other veterans service organizations, among them the Military Order of the Purple Heart and the Paralyzed Veterans of America.
Each attendee recieved a beautiful commerative coin.

Dear Mr. Bush:
Congratulations!
You are the new winner of a 7-day, 6-night, all-expenses-paid vacation at our fabulous new resort in wonderful
NUREMBERG, GERMANY!
When you arrive at the airport, you will be greeted by our welcoming team, who will present you with our traditional, old-world gift basket and then whisk you off to your new accommodations!
Your rooms are waiting, so hurry over!
Who will succeed Gates as Obama's next Secretary of Defense? I suggest former Senator Gary Hart. Hart served two terms as a Senator from Colorado, and he was a supporter of Barack Obama during the 2008 primary campaign.
Gary Hart served on the National Commission on Terrorism under the Clinton administration, and he is an Advisory Board member for the Partnership for a Secure America.
He has written Under the Eagle's Wing: A National Security Strategy of the United States for 2009, The Shield and the Cloak: The Security of the Commons, and The Fourth Power: A New Grand Strategy for the United States In the 21st Century.
Gary Hart is a liberal Democrat with a great interest in our national defense, and he has studied the topic enough to become an expert in the subject. I think that he would be an excellent Secretary of Defense.
The original Constitution prescribes that the members of the United States Senate would be chosen by their state legislatures. That was changed by the 17th Amendment, which specifies that the members of the Senate are now elected by the people.
The 17th Amendment also gives these rules for filling vacancies:
When vacancies happen in the representation of any State in the Senate, the executive authority of such State shall issue writs of election to fill such vacancies: Provided, That the legislature of any State may empower the executive thereof to make temporary appointments until the people fill the vacancies by election as the legislature may direct.
Thus, the recent Senate vacancies that were created in Illinois, Delaware, New York, and Colorado can be filled by temporary appointments made by the governors of those states; but the state legislatures have the power to order special elections to fill those vacancies for the remainder of the terms.
There was great controversy over the Illinois governor's appointment to fill the vacant seat there, and there is also a great discussion over the Senate vacancy in New York. The state legislatures in each state should have the courage to fulfill their Constitutional responsibility to schedule special elections that will fill their Senate vacancy with a permanent replacement!
