[...] Yesterday I noted the ‘enthusiasm’ with which the Washington Post observed Obama’s appointments in the face of the current “Complex Security Picture“. [...]

George Bush sure failed to communicate.

As simplified as Ronald Reagan’s speeches and Oval Office televised talks were, they explained to the people some things he cared about, and he knew the people cared about too, and often used charts and graphs to explain to everyone why they needed to contact their congressmen and help him get a bill passed.

So I am not sure what’s worse, Obama communicating, but substance is little, or Bush’s silence, like we didn’t have a right to answers behind his policies.

Thanks for sharing your thoughts. I’m having a hard time with missing many people today and your words gave me comfort.:)

Comment on IHOP: International House Of (im)Patience by ShatteredChina

Along the line of tips . . . I went to a TGI Fridays with a church group recently. It was late and, though we have about 25 people, we were the only people our waitress had to wait on. Our waitress did a phenomenal job. She kept our drinks full (a rarity for even a small group these days) and was friendly. Then the bill came . . . along with 36% charge. 18% was gratuity and then another 18% was added for our group charge. Soon, the word came down the line . . . make sure you tip the waitress.
Why Should I? According to the menu, my meal was to be $10.00. There was a mention of a 18% gratuity, but no 36%. So, first her company has stolen from me and not let me know all the costs up front. Also, we were her only customers, it’s not like she was going out of her way to serve us. In fact, she was already being paid to serve us.

I really liked our waitress and was ready to give her a big tip (I tip by dollar amount, not percentage) which would have represented about 70% of my total bill. However, if she only wants 36%, let her have it. If the company will take 36% by force, so be it. But I would have freely given 70%.

LMAO, that all sounds about right.

Here in CA I expected nothing less from the damn homosexual mafia - who care nothing for rights of the people who voted. Furtheremore, there is NOTHING in history, anatomy/ biology, sociology and religion which would condone such actions as positive and good for the vitality of a nation. Before you know it we’ll be voting on a measure to declare the definition of “citizenship.”

HA, I’ve heard the hispanics are getting pissed now because none of Obama’s cabinet members are of the same race. I expect NO change from this man, his VP is evident of this. In four years black people will be blaming the white political estabilshment for Obama’s failures. In their eyes he will do no wrong.

I think today would be a great day for human cryogenics - “For the cheap cost of 30,000 dollars we’ll freeze you and when the stock market is back up we’ll bring you back.”

Here is something for you . . . I recently heard there is something like 42 million welfare recipients who are eligible to vote. Now, consider this in light of the fact that about 65 million people voted for Obama.

Now, I know that not everyone on welfare voted, but I wouldn’t be surprised if one-half to two-thirds of them did. After all, if you were getting a free check and you kept hearing that this Obama guy would give you more free money and this McCain guy would make you work . . . who would you vote for?

“I voted for Obama, and I am glad he won (!), because now I wont have to pay for my mortgage, or utilities or even my car payment. If I take care of him, he’ll take care of me…”

I honestly think if you did a survey of the people who voted for Obama, most of them didn’t graduate from high school; the others don’t know what worldview/presupposition mean; and they just hate rich white people (ie Bush administration).

Hang in there, brother. In unique and different ways, God has designed us all too be leaders. Different gifts and abilities are given to each of us to accomplish the position that God puts us in.

I’m with you. I hope that with time people will see what she is really like and realize they were duped by the media.
