It takes a lot of Faith to predict the weather for decades!

The head of the UN climate science body has admitted he was taken entirely by surprise by the ferocious public reaction to a blunder in its report  that the Himalayan glaciers would disappear by 2035. Rajendra Pachauri said:

"I had absolutely no idea what was coming. It just sort of escalated."

So this prophet who claims he can reliably predict the weather for decades --is taken by surprise by a "storm of criticism."  He should have seen it coming! It takes a lot of faith to reliably predict the weather for decades!

Thanksgiving

I believe that Cicero was on to something when he said, "Gratitude is not only the greatest of virtues, but the parent of all the others."

Groping innocent American citizens

Until Presbyterians, Baptists, Catholics, Lutherans, --and children-- start flying jetliners into skyscrapers, first profile muslim terrorists, --and stop treating American citizens like Muslim panty-bombers, please!

Licensed to abuse

Another slap in our faces: the TSA (Transacting Sexual Assaults) who gropes and sexually assaults Americans before we may board a jetliner, is about to get a license for even more abuse! If these people get union protection and union work rules, Americans will be in huge trouble.

Number of Terrorists Caught by the TSA: 0

Lessons on Leadership 1

As a deacon in my local church, I'm always on the lookout for examples from spiritual (or national) leaders whose lives I can glean and apply leadership ideas. Make no mistake, all have spiritual application in the kingdom of God regardless from where they come. 

I'm always amazed at how the previous president of the United States (George W. Bush) shed so much light on what it meant to be a leader. On the other hand, our current president of the United States, Barack Obama, sheds light on the fact that community organizers are not leaders. Community organizing appears to have been Barack Obama's only real 'leadership' training. But if one thinks about it: the job of a community organizer is to focus other people on their problems and empower those people to change their own lives.

Regarding leadership skills, we have a President of the United States who was not only a community organizer, but a failed community organizer; simply look at his former Chicago community today. For example, president Obama is so focused on who to blame for a problem that he cannot corral the resources to fix the problem. And, there are so many examples from which I can choose in current events! Remember BP's Clear Water Horizon oil rig blowout in the Gulf of Mexico? The Netherlands offered their expertise to scoop up the surface oil, but Obama turned them down because of US laws prohibiting foreign flag vessels in American waters. (President GWB suspended those laws during Hurricane Katrina!)

To cap it all off, Obama went on morning television, and used a word inappropriate around children, and people were so distracted by his word choice they failed to pay attention to what he really said: he's talking to experts not about solving the problem, but about who to blame!

“I don’t sit around just talking to experts because this is a college seminar. We talk to these folks because they potentially have the best answers so I know whose ass to kick.”   -Obama, June 2010
 

He is talking to experts not to find out how to solve the problem but to find out whose _ss to kick? Seriously?
 

This man Barack Obama needs an enemy to operate. And it explains every step that he takes in addressing a problem. He is his own worst enemy. :-o  

president Obama shows how not to practice leadership.
