A few things were illuminated to me here. Mostly was the update  President Obama gave about the Recovery Act and it’s main purpose and the unemployment takes a longer time recover than other areas, interesting.


Creating and saving jobs was something that he is quite proud that he has been able to help with as President.  Keeping us working and making things to compete globally in a world market to make things again and be a viable part of the world is something that he takes great pride in.  I can see it in his eyes.


Even though he has still warned us that this Act was not designed to be a fix all in 4 months it’s going to take 2 plus years and that it is a boost to the economy and stop the free fall  not to restore the economy to it’s full help.


The government is helping but it is ultimately up to us to continue and hold accountable those that have destroyed and are still trying to destroy our American way of life.

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!
