The weekly address to the American people from President Barack Obama has two announcements that will be followed by the signing of two pieces of legislation soon to be signed.




The President has stated in this address that we need to speed up economic recovery a new foundation based on  good jobs, sound investments and good good workers.


Clean energy and health care are two areas that he is attacking now.


New energy initiatives for a better world and stop dependency on foreign oil. by doing this we can create new jobs for Americans and develop the tools for the new global economy energy.


President Obama has found that those parties pertaining to health care and clean energy are beginning to eagerly show a willingness to come around common goals with different points of view.


President Barack has met with insurance drug companies, Doctors,  labor unions to talk about and take necessary step to reduce health care cost. Recognizing we must act.  Health reform is a must and the House of Representatives is currently working to pass a bill by end of this term.


Barack has always felt it is better to talk rather than remain silent and  reach over the divide that shake a fist at it. Too long the way Washington has done this and  a new foundation is being laid. Interest will not always align, there are more difficult days to come  but he is confident on the governments start to combat all we are facing.

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.

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!
