Boehner Urges Obama To Reschedule Jobs Speech Amid Conflict With GOP Debate

“House Speaker John Boehner has asked President Obama to postpone his planned jobs speech by a day, after the White House announced Wednesday that it was scheduling the address for the same night as a GOP 2012 primary debate in California.

The two-hour debate, at the Ronald Reagan Presidential Library, was supposed to start at 8 p.m. on Sept. 7. In Obama’s letter to congressional leaders Wednesday, the president requested to speak before a joint session of Congress at the very same time.

The president, though, needs permission from congressional leaders in order to deliver the address. While House Democratic Leader Nancy Pelosi welcomed the president, Boehner said in a letter late Wednesday afternoon that he would like the president to pick a different time. He did not mention the debate. Since the House does not come into session until Sept. 7, with votes scheduled that evening, Boehner expressed concern about the time it would take to conduct the security sweep in time for a presidential speech. “

Brief Lesson In Being Humble

During the course of the storm or rather hurricane/tropical storm Irene, on a serious note if anything today and everyday there is lesson that is learned and it is the importance of being humble.

When it comes to the storms of nature, it gives me pause to realize that no one person is in charge, but the ONE who is in charge, (and it is not President Barack Hussein Obama) in reference here is AMIGHTY GOD HIMSELF. He is the ONE and the ONLY ONE who is IN CONTROL.

As I get older, the brief lesson I am learning and having to relearn again, now with dealing with, not only my own “aging” but also with the beginning of arthritis setting in my right knee and the need to get physical therapy.

Also now that this hurricane/ tropical storm Irene now is history, I will more now keep this brief lesson on being humble in my list of priorities.
