In Our Instant World, Decisions Must Be Informed

07/27/10 (People Port) The Shirley Sherrod video looks most like a business breakfast meeting (Watch the 40 min video). She was USDA's executive for rural development in Georgia. Her personal lecture revealed where and how her entrepreneur skills were developed. She, her job, were not about race, She is about developing rural America. Great video to watch, easily substitute any rural town, I heard that same tax discussion...

In this instance, race was used to draw this Administration into a lose/lose situation. Sure a Race link under issues on the White House landing page may pacify, The critics seam to forget. candidate Obama is now President Obama. Make no mistake -He is the most powerful person, In the most powerful nation the world has ever known. He should not -ever- use his bully pulpit to take down a little muckraker -that is the DNC's job, never higher or official. All this makes one of my favorite points, Words can only shape actions. Our new world of blogs, instant news, means instant decisions. Those instant decisions must be informed Stop being so cheap, hire some people for all your departments. Previous Administrations could, usually did, have multi-media responses ready in hours.

Ms. Sherrod You Can Still Help Rural Georgia

07/27/10 (People Port) Heard where you were offered several jobs. Good. You may want to ask your new friend, President Obama, to ask Rahm Emanuel's Hollywood brother to set you up with a speaking tour, book and movie deal. That gets the young'uns attention. Seeing your life on the big screen, hearing about your speaking tour... You know better than most, a small 50 acre farm, even if you own the land, does not produce enough income to pay for the equipment. Your highlighting rural America can focus the attention, bring about change.

People Port Editorial: BP May Have Shown The World How To Make Rain Storms.

More possible global good from the disaster in the Gulf Of Mexico. We may be able to make rain storms. The radar images during the tropical storm that hit Mexico seemed to show the rain clouds forming at that site.

Back when terrorist only hijacked airplanes, a common worry was a supertanker hijacking. The assumption, they would set it on fire as tropical waves left the coast of Africa if not paid a ransom. Pirates now hijack supertankers. Al-Shabab and their terrorist pals occupy a region that could use the rain.

From the weather loops, it may take many fire boat -water curtains- to accomplish the rain storms...

That Jury Has Been Bought

Those watching the Financial Crisis Inquiry Commission on June 30th saw an effort to place all blame on oversight, sub prime. What their witnesses told, there was a run on the bank, Nevada's Gaming (or New Jersey) would have done a better job.

Some want us to believe derivatives were bought and sold in a perfect market. I chose, Washington Full Throttle Economic Rescue as a reminder, people involved were not sitting around, puffing on their pipes -things were going very wrong.

In September 2008 -fixed- mortgages, prime mortgages, and sub prime mortgages were going bad. Sorry, Unemployment was a real issue in 2008. How many people believe, all unemployed live in rental housing or paid off homes, few, if any.

This Commission's work has been exceptional. All theories of causes need a fair airing. Pursing a point can help see a cause that most would miss. From the Commission's past work, that may have been all they were doing.

People Port Editorial: Congress Needs To Pass Small Business Job Creation Act

This Great Recession has torn up Wall Street, Main Street. Wall Street is almost rebuilt, Let us not forget Main Street. The Small Business Job Creation Act addresses the many problems. Some argue, Too small to do any good.

Those forty thousand that did receive help would say otherwise. It was wrong to use this Great Recession as a political tool. We cannot go back and fix what went wrong. Congress can and should do all it can now. The help outlined in Senate Takes Up Small Business Job Creation Act is a start. This Great Recession is not over.
