Obama warns recession makes climate change fight harder...

I like China's stance of planting trees. Aside from this, yes it is expensive and hard to justify in a recession. But hopefully something practical can be done.

Ahmadinejad arrives in New York )-:

I have a suggestion: just ignore him! Don't give his speech airtime on U.S. networks. And please, no more interviews on the likes of Larry King, etc.!!!

The street protests are bound to be colorful, hopefully not violent.

Have a safe trip Dr. Nejad

Did I hear this right?

Watch CBS Videos Online

Editor's note: No, this ain't sayin much....

Signs like this don't help their cause...

I'm sorry, but this shit does not help. The tea party idea was kind of catchy, but I personally find this sign offensive.

A good speach, but...

Nobody knows how this will pan out or if Obama's reassurances to people's fears will prove valid. However, I have to say I liked it overall. What hurt the cause of Republicans most was the childish outburst of Rep. Joe Wilson of South Carolina, who yelled out: "you lie!" when the President said that this universal healthcare plan would not cover illegal aliens.

I'm sure it is not the intention of them to cover illegals. But of course, who knows what ways they could fraudulently get it??? Anyhow, the immature prick of a Congressman did not prove anything by whipping up anti Obama frevor. It's kind of like them objecting to Obama's speech to school children that was carefully made non-partisan following the initial uproar before the speech.

More important, and totally unprovable, are Obama's claims that it will be revinue neutral and save money. I would not even believe that about a Republican plan, necessarily. Healthcare costs money, period.

The best thing Americans can do in the mean time is to try the best to live a healthy life and stop habits that harm their health. Keep more of what you earn and out of your doctor's pocket.

Ridiculous!

Ridiculous is how I explain the reaction to President Obama's speech to the students of the nation. Really! Believe me, I have plenty of criticism for Obama, but it has not gotten to the point that I believe he should be shunned and censored. Besides, as they had plenty of warning about the speech, the White House was careful to craft the speech to be non-political.

So, basically, he told students to study hard and stay in school. What could possibly be wrong with that?
