[wanabidii] President Obama's Captivating, Invigorated, Smashing Speech in Green Bay Wisconsin



Folks,
 
 
 
This truely speaks for itself. The Republican Mayor Michael Bloomberg's endorsement
of Obama is additional evident that President Obama deserves a second chance.
Global Climate Warming is real.......solutions must be urgently sought.....Hurricane Sandy
become a huge mega-storm because of Climate Warming conditions pushing huge waves
into the land, causing great damage beyond anything ever seen before. Urgent action will
be prudent to contain further environmental destruction. President Obama understands
this and we trust he will swing into action and make things happen in the right direction.
This cannot be the same with Mitt Romney......he is a flip-flopper with no plan and avoids
facing reality and it is because of this, he cannot be trusted with such case-scenario of
high magnitude.
 
 
 
Go vote and give President Obama a second chance to complete what he begun.........
Give Credit where Credit is due people.......because it is just fair and right.........President
Obama will not let any of us down, he has proved himself to all of us and we trust he will
fight rightly.......he means what he says and says what he means......He deserves a
second chance.......
 
 
 
Cheers !!!

President Obama in Green Bay, Wisconsin - Full Speech 11/1/2012
Published on Nov 1, 2012 by BarackObamadotcom

Gotta vote? Go here: http://OFA.BO/zXRkBc

Today, at a grassroots event in Green Bay, Wisconsin, President Obama laid out the closing argument he will make to the American people in the final days of the election. The President is fighting for the same things he's always believed and run on -- that this country cannot succeed without a growing, thriving middle class.

In the decade before President Obama took office, middle-class security was undercut by the same top-down, failed economic policies that Mitt Romney is now promoting. While Romney thinks that means 'change,' the President will continue to move our country forward to real change that boosts the middle class and creates a stronger future for all Americans.

Obama buoyed by Bloomberg endorsement
Published on Nov 1, 2012 by AlJazeeraEnglish

Both main US presidential candidates are now back in full swing - in the swing states.

Barack Obama's campaign has been given a boost by Michael Bloomberg's endorsement, while Mitt Romney has received some flack for his stance on climate change and criticisms of FEMA.

The billionaire New York mayor's backing was fiercely sought by both the Democratic incumbent and his Republican challenger.

Obama hits final stretch with message of gravitas

NORTH LAS VEGAS, Nev.--Gone are the jokes about "Romnesia" and the loose talk of a "campaign marathon extravaganza." For Barack Obama, the president of a nation reeling from a storm that devastated the Eastern Seaboard, it's time for gravitas.
Standing in front of a skyline of red mountains not far from the College of Southern Nevada, Obama's election address sounded more like the speeches he delivered when he campaigned for president four years ago. His original message of hope and compromise, subdued by four years of a stubbornly high unemployment rate and partisan gridlock, re-emerged Thursday.
"We don't need a big government agenda or a small government agenda. We need a middle-class agenda," Obama said Thursday, echoing a line he used in his inaugural address in 2008.
While almost all of his speeches before superstorm Sandy were filled with direct mentions of his GOP challenger, the president mentioned Mitt Romney by name only once during the speech. Obama chose instead to refer to Romney as "my opponent," "the governor," or "the guy who's running for president right now." He also sought to reclaim the word "change" as his own, hammering Romney as a president who would return to policies embraced by former President George W. Bush.

"In the closing weeks of this campaign, Gov. Romney's been using all his talents as a salesman to dress up the very same policies that failed our country so badly," Obama said. "With a straight face he's offering them up as change. He's saying he's the candidate of change. Now, let me tell you, Nevada, we know what change looks like. And what the governor's offering sure ain't change."

The speech suggested that Obama was transforming his rally persona from a wise-cracking pol to Commander-in-Chief facing Serious Times.

The crowd, however, was ready to party.

About 4,500 supporters had gathered to hear the president at the outdoor Cheyenne Sports Complex here, grooving to a warm-up funk band beneath the warm desert sun. About an hour before Obama spoke, the band played the gospel worship song "All Around," replacing the parts where the singer usually says "Lord" with "Obama" as the crowd danced and cheered on the grass below the stage.

Eva Longoria, actress and a chairwoman of the Obama campaign, made a stop at the rally to urge supporters to vote, preferably early if they could.

In the background, campaign signs that read "FORWARD!" AND "VOTE EARLY" with the official campaign insignia in place as the "O," bordered the field where the president spoke.

This will be Obama's final trip to the Silver State, which both campaigns believe they have a chance to win. Romney dispatched his running mate, Wisconsin Rep. Paul Ryan, to speak in Reno on the same day.

 
 

Mayor Bloomberg: 'I don't think we've had a murder in two or three days'

The Lookout – 5 hrs ago

NYC Mayor Michael Bloomberg (Yahoo! News/File)

New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg shared what he considers a small ray of light to come out of the darkness left in the wake of Hurricane Sandy.

"I don't think we've had a murder in two or three days," Bloomberg said at his daily press briefing on Thursday. "That's some good news."

While it may sound grim, he's right. According to FBI data, 515 people were murdered in New York City in 2011—or 1.41 murders per day, or roughly three killings every two days. That was down from 2010, when 536 murders were recorded in the five boroughs.

The death toll from Sandy jumped to 37 people in New York alone, Bloomberg said on Thursday. That number is expected to rise.

"Well, at least New Yorkers aren't killing one another," Joe Coscarelli wrote in NYMag.com.

Overall, 157 deaths have been blamed on the superstorm, including 85 in the United States.

But while the murder rate in New York City has slowed, looting inspired by the hurricane appears to be on the rise. According to the Associated Press, 15 people have been arrested in connection with looting in Queens since the storm hit on Monday.
