Superbowl report

Great Superbowl and congrats to the gutsy New Orleans Saints! What a stirring game… especially the on side kick to start the second half! Why can’t the Bronco’s do things like that?
At church this morning I was stopped by two Sisters of St Francis who insisted I root for the Saints. They were planning to watch the game and the Saints were their choice to win. I guess the power of prayer overcomes the Las Vegas line.
While we’re speaking of the Superbowl, did anyone think the Focus on the Family ad was objectionable? Prior to the game, one would have thought it was a slash and burn attack on liberal women everywhere. As it turned out, it was charming , funny and touching. I will wait and see how it is reviewed tomorrow. Somehow I don’t expect the groups that were incensed before they even saw it, to admit it was OK… but I am a perennial optimist… kind of like the sisters rooting for the Saints; and look at what they accomplished!

I just couldnt resist; spoken by the smartest, most educated, most eloquent president we have ever been blessed to have. This will not make the national media. Have a great weekend wherever you are!
Like it or not?

I am almost beyond words on this one. Listen to the President’s answer to Sen Lincoln on the financial system and ask yourself who in their right minds would NOT not like a financial system that is healthy and functioning? Obviously some in his democratic party and perhaps even the president himself from his tone! How could one even pose that question? Like it or not? Please let me know what groups he might be referring to that do not like a healthy and functioning financial system here and lets send the info on to Homeland Security. I am livid that this is not being covered by major media outlets.
This comment is absolutely insane and extremely troublesome. Does this administration really support the capitalist free market system? This is scary.
