Interesting Comparison: The Great Depression, The Great Recession, And Bad Weather Patterns For Years

During the Great Depression of the 1930s, America witnessed horrific weather, particularly drought, but also extremely hot and cold weather and natural disasters such as tornadoes and floods, in a way not witnessed as commonly earlier in time in American history.

And now, while in the midst of the Great Recession and its aftermath, we have witnessed new evidence of drought, records set for hot weather, plus tornadoes, floods, fires, and other natural disasters.

It makes one wonder why the connection between difficult economic times has been magnified by bad weather, but the author has no answer to this, just pointing it out!

Mitt Romney And The Three Words Beginning With “M”: Off Limits!

Former Massachusetts Governor Mitt Romney, the Republican Presidential nominee, has problems with three words beginning with the letter M!

He does not wish to talk about his years as Massachusetts Governor, when he was a moderate Republican.

He does not like to talk at all about his Mormon faith, and is just as secretive about it as the Mormon Church is toward investigation and analysis of itself.

And he certainly has no desire to talk about his money, being far less transparent than his own dad was in 1968, when he was running for the GOP Presidential nomination.

This is not the kind of person we want governing us, when he refuses to be accountable about his past in any form!

Barack Obama And “RomneyHood”!

President Obama has come up with a new term for his opponent, former Massachusetts Governor Mitt Romney, the Republican nominee for President.

Referring to Robin Hood as the man who stole from the rich to give to the poor, Obama called what Romney represents as “RomneyHood”, in that he wishes to steal from the poor and middle classes to give to the rich, as if they need more tax cuts than they have already received under the Bush tax cuts of the past decade.

Mitt Romney is trying to overcome his wealthy, uncaring image, so he went shopping yesterday for a few items near his mansion in New Hampshire, and looked totally ridiculous, preposterous, and phony, which is nothing new for him.

It is clear that he cannot even shop and seem like a normal human being, and is totally non-communicative with the media in the process of acting stiff and formal, even when shopping.

This man is an aristocrat who cannot relate to average people and never will, and calling what he wishes to do as “RomneyHood” is, therefore, totally appropriate!
