The White House Tuesday announced that President Obama will travel to Ohio on Friday. Specifics of the trip have not been released yet.
In other Ohio news, a 62-foot statue of Jesus exploded Monday night after lightning struck the 6-story-tall structure. "Touchdown Jesus," as Ohio citizens nicknamed it, was completely destroyed.
Outside of geographical location, the two news items are probably not related.
Meanwhile, Obama will address the nation Tuesday night from the Oval Office. Expected to discuss the Gulf oil disaster, the president will discuss his strategy for "containing the oil that's leaking and cleaning up the environment," according to White House Press Secretary Robert Gibbs.
Obama's relationship with BP has cooled considerably.
"I don't think the president wants to take BP's word that everything is OK," Gibbs said in an interview with Fox News. "I don't think we can risk going forward on taking a company's word for it anymore."

Obama's relationship with BP has cooled considerably. No longer taking campaign contributions from them, is he?

Probably not. [Keep whistling, you’re almost past the graveyard.]

Thousands of bees swarm White House
05/17/10 07:24 PM ET
A swarm of thousands of bees gathered outside the White House on Sunday morning.
The small army of insects hovered as President Barack Obama tried to leave the White House to play basketball at Fort McNair.
By the time the president returned at noon, the bees were nowhere in sight.

I guess God and Heaven have told us what THEY think about “The One”.

I’m becoming more convinced that there is no such thing as “coincidence”, especially in these days.

I don't think we can risk taking the government's word. EVER. But I learned that in school and at home.

Look busy...

Pulling this trigger takes 2.
