Bush used hand sanitizer.
is this a common practice?

I like the style of this writing.

I imagine the excerpt is from Obama's book.
I imagine that book will be popular now
if it is not already.

I have not had a chance to write about the Obama win.

Woke up with some thoughts this morning following
the Pacific Symposium 08.

I will go down there this morning
to get some CD's of the conference and bask in the grow
of a lot of appreciation from many.

I would like to sell some greeting cards.

I am also not satisfied with the GIfting Art Program.
I did not have time to initiate that.

I had a readout of lots of things to improve this morning,
but missed numbers of them so far due to tiredness.

Blogs on Obama by me:

I Own Obama.
Provocative Title. I was thinking.
I and a lot of others own Obama.
I gave $40.00 over time.
He raised a lot of money.
This is different than when the Corps "bought" him.
I would like to imagine he is "Owned" by the People.

What would I like?

I read last night a story about a number of holdovers
from the Bush era who will be with Obama for a number of years.
One is the Military head.

Here is my thought:

Immediately set in motion the Department of Peace.

Blog: Going to War/Going to Peace.

I would like to see Dennis Kucinich play a role in this Department of Peace.

We may not be able to do anything about the Military use of force in Iraq right now,
but we can do something about the Infusion of Peaceful Ideas.

I can see a Truce being called.

A song comes to mind from the Vietnam Era.
Here are some of the lyrics:

"One, two, three, four,
what are we fighting for?"

[ Country Joe and the Fish

"Yeah, come on all of you, big strong men,
Uncle Sam needs your help again.
He's got himself in a terrible jam
Way down yonder in Vietnam
So put down your books and pick up a gun,
We're gonna have a whole lotta fun.

And it's one, two, three,
What are we fighting for ?
Don't ask me, I don't give a damn,
Next stop is Vietnam;
And it's five, six, seven,
Open up the pearly gates,
Well there ain't no time to wonder why,
Whoopee! we're all gonna die."

The Group helped stop the War in Vietnam. ]

I would like to see people like Marshall Rosenberg,
founder of Compassionate and Non-Violent Communcation
called in the effect the War Climate in Iraq.

We need to get an Upgrade on Peace Approaches that are well known
among the Conscious Communities.

Obama has excellent people building skills.
I would start talking.

I want to see Obama go down as a great Peace Maker.

Other IDEA recently:

I saw an Art Piece in my Head.
It came out of looking at this building site
near our house. A whole shopping center
was in process of being torn down.
They must have run out of money.
It is a real eyesore.

It looks like a scene from Irag after bombing.
There is rubble everywhere.

I can see an Art Group going in there and creating
some kind of on the ground Art Installation
called THE WAR IN IRAG.
I would like to take some photos of that rubble site.

The economy that has instigated that rubble just lying there
for six months I can see traced to no money to complete.
The economy downsize is influenced by so much resources
being diverted to fighting in Irag.

Have you ever visited a War Zone?
Come and visit this site on El Cajon Blvd near 60th.
Amazing to witness such extreme rubble only a few miles
from SDSU.

More later on Obama...

Going to get ready for the day.
Have a good day.
