In tonight’s entertainment en route to the tips Cheryl Crow, Vince Gill, Eric Clapton, and English guitar legend Albert Lee put a little extra zip into Don Williams’s laid-back 1978 hit Tulsa Time.

President Obama’s from the government and he’s here to help. Created millions of jobs if you listen to him. Carries over 90% of the black vote and they adore him. Just don’t know why.

McCain is suffering POW syndrome, he stands for nothing but cheap shots. Putin is the better man.

Sad McCain is my Senator & Obama is sulking in the WH. It was another Democratic President (Carter) that boycotted the USSR in 1980, now these clowns are doing everything to hurt the Olympics in Russia.
Obama Sending 2 Lesbians to represent the USA is childish. I hope Putin drops him if Obama has the guts to meet him face to face.
Chrysler demanding subsidies? Why does this remind of Atlas Shrugged?

“Former prime minister Pierre Trudeau joined in 1984, and a rush of marquee names followed. In what seemed like no time at all, the firm had 500 lawyers with offices across the country and in Paris.
By any measure, Heenan Blaikie was a great success story.”

Now that would be neat. Putin punches out Obama after giving him fair warning. I’d pay to watch that MMA event. Even if he took him down and choked him out…even an arm bar would be cool. Am still laughing.

“Skiers warned of terrain traps in Scotland’s mountains”
“Heavy snowfalls over Scotland’s mountains have almost buried buildings at ski centres in Glencoe and Nevis Range.
Falling and drifting snow has also almost reached the tops of some ski tow pylons at Glenshee Ski Resort.
Earlier this month, it was claimed that the upper runs of three Scottish ski resorts had more snow than Whistler in Canada.”

The sustainability and global-governance-promoting organizations are made up of people who buy into global warming and who want to change the world according to their idea of utopia. I now see how Obama came to be awarded the Nobel Peace Prize. The Earth Charter Initiative, like other global ‘sustainability’ organizations, hands awards out to those who further THEIR ends. (I find it interesting that one of the current council members advises Gorbachev.)
Elizabeth May is a former council member of the Earth Charter Initiative
