Our President's Voice of Reason: From Arrest To Reconciliation

Hey PR Fellows,

I think I'm at the end of my rope with this whole accusation of whether or not President Barack Obama called Cambridge police "stupid" or not. He did not call them stupid, but their actions.

Logically, if you show police officers identification while standing in your home and they arrest you anyway, you may become a little or maybe extremely irrate as well.

At the end of the day though, I just love how the President quickly stepped up to the plate and became the mediator in this highly publicized squabble; a squabble that invloves his friend. We all know that can be difficult. I didn't hear about anyone else seeking to do that. Being a mediator id difficult business. Instead, while others were talking, President Obama was thinking how to not only hold himself, but the other men accountable for their actions.

As Christians, we can learn from these three men agreeing to meet together over beer to squash this issue. In less than a week's time our preident has identfied a problem, contacted the two opposing parties and appointed himself mediator. Great publicity, YES, but a much better Christian operating in the proper technique of reconciliation.

Isn't this what we're supposed to do as opposed to allowing a difference to fester? I don't care if it's over beer, comic books or video games, President Obama is on point-AGAIN.

How Michael Became Addicted to Painkillers?????

Hey Gang,

I have purposely refrained from saying anything about the whole Michael Jackson thing. I was a fan and felt that there was absolutley nothing I could have said to convey my true thoughts.

Thn, today I receive video footage of the most traumatic incidents in Michael's life; the disatrous Pepsi commercial fire. I had always seen the commercial to the point where Michael realizes he's on fire, but then in this video you actually see the burn after he comes off the floor; hoorific!!

The conversation now focuses on this being the time in which Michael became addicted to pain killers.

After looking at the severity of burn (a burned out bald patch in a matter of minutes 2nd-3rd degree burns on his scalp and face), I can seriously see how painful this was. He couldn't stay in the hospital for managed care, I can see how painkillers had to be delivered to him and without proper care, how it got out of control. Was he really addicted for 25 years?

Take a look and share your thoughts.

World-Renowned Speaker, Former Presidential Spiritual Advisor, Author and Minister Lifts Spirits, Builds Faith and Offers Hope with Perfect Lunch Hour “Pick Me Up” at Mt. Vernon Place United Methodist Church


Washington D.C. / New York City – May 26, 2009 – Obviously, when we think of lunchtime, we think of a time when we can relax and feed our bodies. Well Dr. Suzan Johnson-Cook, World-Renowned speaker, author, entrepreneur and former Clinton Spiritual advisor challenges you to take 30 minutes of your lunch hour and feed your spirit and your soul. Dubbed “Billy Graham and Oprah rolled into one”, by The New York Times, Dr. Sujay, as she’s affectionately known says, “The purpose of this challenge is to inspire people to believe that they are more than their circumstances, to intentionally take their eyes off of their problems and place them on God; the ONLY one who can change their current situation and give them unexplainable peace in these turbulent times”.

Every Tuesday from 12:15-12:45pm she will host Wonderful Washington Worship in Washington, D.C. at Mt. Vernon Place United Methodist Church at 900 Massachusetts Ave. at 9th Street NW, located across from the Convention Center, in the heart of the Nation’s Capitol from June 16th to July 27th. After participating in President Barack Obama’s National Day of Prayer on his first day in office, Dr. Sujay became inspired to take President Obama’s mantra of instilling hope back into the nation very seriously.

Since aggressively stepping up to the “spiritual” plate during the 911 attacks in 2001, serving as the only NYPD Chaplain’s until now, Dr. Sujay has been called, “America’s Chaplain”. She firmly believes that, “We are mind, body and spirit which means it’s time to put the stress of the current economic decline aside and get back to the basics of life – which is simply getting back in touch with your God, His wonderful promises and purpose for our lives.”

After successfully, holding services in New York City on Wall Street to standing room crowds only, Dr. Sujay also recently completed 13 weeks of services on the stage of the world famous Apollo Theatre in Harlem called “Harlem Hallelujah”, attended by former President Clinton and Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, as well as world leaders, namely Rev. Jesse Jackson, Congressman Charles Rangel, Congressman Ed Towns and Senator Charles Shulmer and inter-ethnic groups from Japan, Africa, and other countries.

From Wall Street to Pennsylvania Ave, from the Financial Capital to the Nation’s Capital, Dr. Sujay’s goal is to have the half-hour weekly lunchtime services revive the soul of our country and bring inspiration to our nation.

It’s the perfect lunch hour pick me up “Spiritual Stimulus Package” – a half –hour of POWER, and you won’t be late getting back to work! It’s an experience that will help make you feel good about yourself, your life, and your faith.
