First Christmas with the Obama’s


Now that the White House Christmas Tree is up it’s time for guest and the first would be Oprah for her Premiere Christmas show with the Obamas last night.


White House Christmas Tree 2009


Oprah Winfrey’s Christmas Premier show last night was a nice break in the staunch regime of the white house schedule. Allowing Americans to come the the White House and share President and Firs  Lady Obama’s first Christmas in the White House.



As I watched is was a refreshing change from the daily duties that are performed at the White House. Of course Bo was a pleasure he is just a well cared for animal and of course well loved. Being that it is my home I felt right at home and welcomed.


The best statement that I like was that President Obama stated that, “This is not the President’s and his families home rather it is the people’s home. He is just renting”



What moved me mos was the talk he had with Oprah about the Oval Room and how important it was and intense because it was were he signed and will sign many pieces of legislature.  The most solemn was when he stated that he signs papers to let families know that their loved ones have been killed in battle in the war. I could see the pain and hurt. He hates this war and what it does to people and their lives. He would rather construct and build than destroy. He does realize that war is a part of maintaining and securing our freedom and liberties unfortunately but none the less he became very sadden when he spoke of this act that he performs of the Oval Room.



Of course you know that Oprah was going to ask about his feelings of the war and why he decided to send more troops. He was ready believe me he has been asked this and he is a reader of blogs, newspapers, etc to be up on the news as to what is going on can you say J.F. Kennedy he was the same way adamant about what was going on in the country.


President Obama stated what he did when he spoke to us about he decision  a few weeks ago. That he disliked this and had a hard time coming to this decision but in the long run safety for the world he and our allies felt it was necessary for another 18 months to do what is needed to train the Afghanistan forces then get the heck out of Afghanistan.


While war is beckoning abroad there is a flicker of happiness, joy and thankfulness  in the holidays.

One hundred days and that’s all! Much has been said and down during President Obama’s office. Were you able to keep up with some of the items on his checklist? Before I knew it one after another was coming right at us. Some good some not so good. I do have to digest a lot about many items but I can really say that I am please for this reason. He is doing something regardless what you political or personal feelings about him.


He making policy, laws, proclamations, and accountability. For a few moments in my life have I felt like this where I actually feel like someone in government actually gives a damn!

As we are approaching GM and Chrysler’s answer to the government about their plans for their companies I bet that this new accountability runs deep not just for corporations but for all. So get ready Americans we are being presented with the proverbial plate step up to it and take charge.


I just found this out on the net.

Did you hug a tree today? That might not be your thing but you can do something no matter how small for Earth Day today. That’s right, Happy Earth Day!


What is Earth Day let me fill you in …



This blog post is dedicated to this special day and for an event that I am participating in today for Earth Day.



So let’s see what President Obama is doing for Earth Day today.


For starters President Obama has signed a proclamation in recognition of Earth Day to affirm the importance of protecting or environment, cleaning up our environment and opening up new hedge ways for implementing new technologies and interventions for the improvement and empowerment of all Americans to the conservation or our energy resources.

President Obama and Earth Day 2009


In his speech in Iowa today about the Recovery Act, He spoke about a new program that his energy advisers and administration collaborated and developed,  to generate electricity from wind turbines and ocean currents by permitting offshore projects.


President Obama further stated that relying on ourselves for oil production and natural gas needs  to be less dependent on other countries for these resources,  as well as a United States effort to focus on renewable energy.


Full story HERE


So if you can’t purchase a energy saving light bulb as President Obama is requesting of all Americans to buy at some point,  then at least unplug an appliance, turn down your water thermostat, walk to somewhere close instead of driving  to help our environment conserve,  restore and forge ahead to new frontiers for renewable energies.

Or sucks just hug a tree today, come on it’s not so bad, lol!
