Oh and did you watch the Republican’s address the Congress?
I did not watch that.
I hope there were not too many grammatical errors in that paragraph. It sounds kind of funny to me.
Artichokes! 🙂
What did you think of Obama’s speech last night?
I particularly liked the State of Union address. It was his sixth state of the Union address. I thought he answered key issues such as the economy, and women’s rights, abortion, equal pay, and people working at military bases (Who do not get enough pay). I think Obama was talking about the people who work there not the military themselves. But my mother got that confused.
I just sent a correspondence (An email message) to Boehner’s speaker website: I filled out the email form.
Obama said and I agree that we should contact our Democrat and Republicans house leaders, and senators and politicians if we want change to happen. Obama said he was not a king and could not move his finger either way to get things done. He said this when some Indian guy got up at a rally and said “Mr. President why are you not getting anything done?” Obama said in response , “I am doing the best I can. The people who think I can do unlimited amount of things do not know or understand what it is to be president. A president has a Congress and has to work with the political system to get things done.”
Squirrels! 🙂
