Maybe we, the people, have lost the intellectual capacity to manage a workable democracy. How else do you explain why nearly one in five Americans believes that President Barack Obama is a Muslim?

A recent poll by the nonpartisan Pew Forum found that 18 percent of all those polled — and 31 percent of Republicans — believe the president is a Muslim. That is up from 11 percent of all Americans last year.

Obama’s faith is not a matter of public opinion. He’s a baptized Christian who routinely prays with fellow Christians and invokes his “risen savior” when speaking of his faith.

He does not practice the Islamic faith. He has never been seen performing the ritual prayer, which Muslims do five times a day.

I used copper soap on an organic farm for tomatoes for the purpose of salvaging a planting of them, probably from the tobacco related virus that many people have trouble with and most commercial growers know about.  I’ve recently used a copper based wood treatment on wood to prevent rotting of the wood, I wonder what the copper has that acts as a viro-insect preventative?  I also took pics of a band saw mill that is at the place I’m working at the moment that is similar to a personal mill I saw at a previous internship I did in E. Washington (NW of Spokane).  I’ll post them and add captions as soon as I get to a place where my service works as the only coverage available is Verizon and I have ATT (I’ve started a corporate war, no worries though Verizon is spotty at best here).  Just wanted to add a post that is worth the greenpress label that I value, peace, WDG.

“The reason we keep trying to get fuel out of algae… is that we’ve put trillions of dollars into a liquid-fuel infrastructure around the world…For us to move to a hydrogen-based economy, or to go electric, would mean huge costs redoing the infrastructure.”

Congressman Mike Coffman (R-CO) Says He Will Advocate For Benefits Of Recovery Package Despite Opposition. During a segment with KUSA-TV, Rep. Coffman said: “I see myself in two roles as a congressman. I think the first role as a policymaker in Washington and the second as an advocate for people inside this district and there are elements we’ll probably be discussing – the mortgage proposal – there are probably elements that I disagree with that but if there’s somebody in my district eligible for that, I’ll fight to make sure they get them.” Coffman goes on to say, “I certainly supported infrastructure spending because it creates direct jobs in the private sector, clearly I support tax relief…it still puts money into the economy.” [KUSA-TV, 2/22/09]
