Maria, what you have said concerning the political speech, falls on DEAF EARS!
We have in this country, and this is not generally speaking (you all know who you are, this is targeted) people who are so mean spirited, hard nosed, still living as though this is the first 200 years of this country’s founding, greedy, predjudiced, unwilling to accept change for the good of us all because they only see a face, think that everything is socialist, communist, liberal and I could go on and on. They know who they are and you can say all that you like that it is not because Obama is part black, but you ( YOU, being generally used here) know from this country’s history that this would be a falsehood. They have blocked or tried to block everything that he has tried to do to improve the situation in the country. WE WILL NEVER LEARN IN THIS COUNTRY! I have never seen a nation of people who are supposed to BE the GOVERNMENT, let so many officials and small, but powerful groups rule this nation to the point of utter destruction. Either we have lost our way or just given up! Let’s try to get back on track. If some that are paying for their health care want to continue to pay, then do, but don’t take away the option for others to get health care. Working together on capital hill is not an option in this administration, it’s a must. They don’t WANT to work together because they are being embarrassed that there is someone in the White House who has done some things that the former presidents didn’t have the courage to do. I don’t agree with everything that Pres. Obama does, but he is putting a great effort into getting things done for everyone, not democrats, liberals, republicans, etc. I could go on, but if things don’t change, if we don’t wake up, and people don’t leave their predjudices behind them, we are going to find ourselves going backwards in this country and we will have no one to blame but ourselves. WAKE UP PEOPLE! China, India and Iran is on the move.

I too am a President Obama supporter and have a Republican mother who is so against anything that has to do with a democrat that the blinders that she wears every day do not allow her to see or listen to anything that has to do with choices and what is right for the American Citizens as a whole!
I work with a republican woman of her generation who has an open mind and truly pays attention to what is said. When we got to work the next morning after the SOTU, she asked me if I had watched to which my reply was “of course”, she said you know I have never listened to a President in all of my life that I have been more angry with at the beginning of their speech.
Yet at the end of that speech he had made me at ease with all of his words. They were not all sugar coated and full of statements that would make us all believe that everything was going great and all is wonderful. She said that man can bring a crowd to it’s feet and we all want to stand up with them.
I told her that I agreed with her and it made my heart feel good to know that there are still some people out there that are willing to open their eyes and minds to see exactly what is being said and portrayed by The President of the United States that we voted in and had decided to give a chance to over a year ago. Hail Hail to President Barrack Obama.

Maria, I couldn’t agree with you more about Mr. Jobs and his new feminine hygiene named product – what was he thinking? Cooperation in your house – whether it be a corporation, a govenment agency, or a grocery store – is exactly what is needed to bring the United States back from the trenches.

So long since I’ve needed that particular feminine product the absurdity of the name didn’t occur to me til I read it here. Thanks for pointing out that the glass ceiling still exists. As for the State of the Union address, I think it was more the state of Washington he told us about. My favorite quote which, by the way, the news media did not pick up on: “We were sent here to serve our citizens, not our ambitions.” I’m ready for those in Washington to quit serving political and corporate ambitions and begin serving the people.
