Dear God,

The other night, the Rev. James Dobson's ministry asked all believers to pray for a storm on Thursday night so that the Obama acceptance speech outdoors in Denver would have to be cancelled.

I see that You have answered Rev. Dobson's prayers -- except the storm You have sent to earth is not over Denver, but on its way to New Orleans! In fact, You have scheduled it to hit Louisiana at exactly the moment that George W. Bush is to deliver his speech at the Republican National Convention.

Joe Lieberman! Can you believe this guy? I'd like to hear Gore's views on him! Are their any Connecticut folk here? What do you think of what's become of your Democrat?

First heard of Pickens on NPR. Now he's paying for advertising and Gore spoke of T.Boone Pickens this a.m. Check it out

Our country is facing enormous challenges. I hear Obama "fine tuning" his position on these issues, some of which have been called flip flopping. But I think as the reality of an Obama presidency draws near a clearer view of the problems and the solutions requires some adjustments. That said, I want Obama to stand stedfast against the things we have discussed and determined outrageous. His wave of support is based on our perception that he can create change. And change we must.

The big 6-0. To quote Al "60 is the new 59!" God bless you and let your wisdom and passion shine light on our future.

TALLAHASSEE, Fla. — The Florida Legislature formally apologized Wednesday for the state’s “shameful” history of slavery, joining five other states that have expressed public regret for what Senator Barack Obama, the Democratic presidential candidate, recently called America’s “original sin.”
