Brian I saw the short video of Bo Obama and I fell in love with him to so cute and fuzzy. Yes I'm a cat lover but Bo stole my heart.

The report of how educated Americans are isn't showing with the elected officials and their supporters. We see ignorant Republican spoke person Rush Limbaugh and the DC Law Makers who have no idea what their doing even after they had the US Constitution read to them. History making ignorant candidates running for President that high school kids had to correct mistakes. Many setting Law Makers had their rich parents buy their degrees and others have no education pass high school. I was lucky to hear the best educated elected officials while they had to educate those citizens who lacked education. Discussions by Law Makers to allowed even high school students to research facts. The best was the Nixon/Kennedy debate and we had one in school. But we hear candidates like Newt/Rick call for less education while they got degrees but clearly didn't learn much. We learned President Bush got in Yale U. on affirmative action and later his Dad paid for Harvard Business School. Bush proved he never earned or learned as every business Bush was given by his Dad he failed and most noticed was how educated baseball owners laughed when Bush traded Sammy Sosa and later sold the Texas Ranger like a yard sale. But he and partners brought Texas Rangers 89 million, increased the values with funding from citizens of 193 million but ended up with 15 million which was pennies as the Texas Rangers was down graded to a big lost. Bush did tell a senior class at Princeton U. that he was high/drunk all four years in college and advised them if your family is rich you can be President, if not you have to earn your way. One of the few times the President told the truth. It was interest to hear even Gov. Chris Christi lacked education and always has to be corrected.

The President had to show American men do have respect for women as he thanked Ms. Fluke for being the voice to women. I have noticed this is only how Republicans males feel as many men have spoken up for the respect of women. It's a sad day for the Moms, wives and daughters as they have to hear how the elected Republicans spoke person calls women Sluts. I wonder how female Republican elected officials feel now that the public knows how their fellow law makers feel about them. Thank you Mr. President.

It's sad the disaster victims get limited help because the Congress reduced funding for FEMA to assure Banks got the 700 Billion in bailout bonuses. Alabama citizens will have to said the President for help like the other States like Virginia did. We will see more disasters and with the current Congress we will see no help. Let's hope after the election we can get a Congress that puts the people first and not corporate/bank interest.

have a great day all

    Good Evening Mr.Williams, A fine broadcast this evening. A truly active weather system today and seeing the tremendous damage is awful.

    The report by Mr.Cantore, Mr.Seidel and Mr.Forbes showed some powerful radar and hearing there was up to 19 separate warnings and around numerous tornadoes was staggerring. So many towns completely and utterly destroyed. So very tragic. Ones thoughts and prayers go out to all the residents affected by the storm.

    The report by Andrea Mitchell about the threat of Iran's nuclear program was disturbing and showed how critical the meeting of President Obama and Prime Minister Netanyahu. Iran must understand the United States will not accept the enrichment of uranium by Iran. The potential of Israel striking against Iran is frightening and one hopes there is no attack. Hopefully, things will remain calm.

    Hope everyone stays safe from all the storms.

    Thank You for the broadcast Mr.Williams. Have a wonderful weekend. Peace to You and to All!

    Be Well Everyone!

    Stay Extra,Extra Safe and Well Richard!

    Take Extra,Extra Good Care Richard and Crew!

    Lisa

      Brian, NBC Nightly News was not broadcast last night because of the devastation in Kentuckiana, but I caught

      part of it on the Web. The resolve of the people in Syria is amazing, and they are in my prayers. I still hold

      a grudge against BP. Welcome to $5.00 a gallon to pay for that settlement. "No silver bullet", but no deal

      I now have a new Verona, so the personal is politcal. And have a great weekend!!!

        Lester, Nightly News was not broadcast again this evening because of the devastation in Kentuckiana, but

        I caught the broadcast on the Web. Excellent team coverage, and my heartfelt thanks for coming Did anyone

        really think BP would foot the bill? Really! As for Rush Limbaugh, I wish he would just go away. Name calling

        is unacceptable, counter productive, and never appropriate. Phyllis

          I agree with President Obama too much loose talk of war and to channel Scarlet O'Hara: "War, War, War"

          ; and since the murder in the Cain and Abel Story it has been War, War, War". About time to give Peace

          a chance, and the president is right in opting for diplomacy. That is my opinion!

            Phyllis a promise is a promise and it should be kept. President Bush announced after successfully invading Iraq by charging Iraq had WMD's when everyone knew they had none. Netanyahu was assured the US would bomb Iran for Israel. We hear Senator McCain promise to bomb Iran for Israel once he became President. Israel has waited with President Obama not honoring that US promise. Mitt/Rick/Newt have all promised they would bomb Iran for Israel if elected President. Mitt said at the Debate he would follow the orders of Netanyahu. Iran is known to have no weapons yet, but Israel has a strong economy and several Nuclear Weapons to protect themselves along with full Military. But Israel was smart to get the US to do the War and some their country from losing any of their soldiers or spending any money. As this War will be blamed on the United States. Congress has been working hard to get enough votes to over ride President Obama's veto on this illegal invasion. Good news Saudi Arabia is developing their Nuclear Weapons but the US doesn't see a problem. Pakistan and North Korea have their Nuclear Weapons but until Israel tells the US to bomb those countries nothing will be done.

              Jackie, very interesting, thanks but you and I will have to agree to disagree on WMDs in Iraq.

              Last week on Jay Leno's Show, Jay said Syria now had WMDS and I have always maintained that

              the WMDS were later moved to Syria by Saddam for safekeeping --- and he (JL) added "Here we go

              again." I hope that will not be the case It would, however, be ironic if the WMDS were found

              by President Obama. God works in mysterious ways.

                Lester, Again, my heartfelt thanks to you and the NBC team for covering the tornado devastion in

                Kentuckiana. So sad about baby Angel dying, and the only way you can look at it and not despair

                is to know she is now with her family
