Is Global Warming more important than Jobs and the Economy, or the crisis in Ukraine? The White House sure wants you to think so! A midweek update focuses on the issues that are most important; Jobs and the Economy, Business Formation, and the potential for the United States to be drawn into a serious conflict in Eastern Europe; A conflict nobody wants, certainly not the President. Is Obama a wash out? What about the President’s use of executive power to bend the law to his wishes, despite what congress passed? A new suggestion may have weight as long as the 2014 election comes out positive for Republicans. In future podcasts I’ll address the question of whether the Republicans are up to the job. A special feature in this podcast…A renown landscape architect gives us tips for getting our lawns, shrubs and flower beds ready for the growing season. Sponsored by Edelweissdesign.com

Do you dream about the end of world? Have you ever? Are you optimistic about the future of the world, or filling the bomb shelter with canned food, buying 80 pounds of rice and preparing for the end times? A late night ‘bonsai’ fire, for a podcast planned to update the week’s news story lines, goes ‘off the rails’, but in a good way. And, you still get updated. How the media played two different economic news stories last week (one good news, sorta, and one bad news, for real), Thomas Friedman wastes a thousand words in the New York Times to tell us it’s not Obama’s fault, again. Russian TU-160’s over Crimea while Ukrainians say it’s war. Plus, when laying in wait to kill someone isn’t 1st degree murder but ‘Stand Your Ground’. Really? And Detroit’s Civilian Militia.

Top Stories! Get updated on the week’s top stories. We’re getting back on the horse after Easter weekend. My take on the Bundy Ranch Standoff? More than a tax issue, this is a political corruption issue. Continuing to watch Eastern Ukraine for signs of trouble, as the ‘Geneva Accord’ looks more and more like Munich! Or, maybe August 1914. Maybe it’s just eclipse energy! Democrats have been told to stop saying ‘recovery’ … Why? There goes Pope Francis again, popping off about ‘Free Markets’ and all the damage they cause. Plus, updates on where I’ll be speaking next in the Minneapolis-Saint Paul Metro. Sponsored by Plan Vision. Simple, Smart and Focused
