He parties more than he works. He supposedly had some big super bowl party.

1:45PM THE PRESIDENT meets with Secretary Salazar
Roosevelt Room



I'm wondering if one of the topics that Salazar will be discussing with the President will be the proposed wind farms in Nantucket Sound. Last week Salazar traveled to Nantucket Sound to meet with the Mashpee Wampanoag's and Aquinnah tribes.

The administration needs to resolve the issues of the Native Americans in the area who perform ceremonies and believe there are Indian artifacts in the area. The area is registered on the National Register of Historic Places. This in addition to environmentalists and people who live and vacation in the Martha's Vineyard area are an obstacle in the process of building the Cape Wind project.

The Cape Wind Project is 130 wind turbines that will produce up to 420 megawatts of renewable electricity that would be built on Horseshoe Shoal in Nantucket Sound.

If the Cape Wind project does become a reality it is said it will provide 75% of the electricity need for Cape Cod.

I wonder if there would be as big as an obstacle for hydro power. Perhaps in time they will utilize both technologies.

Fed offices are closed again in DC... more snow expected.

Looks like a big day for Michelle as she embarks on her war against fat kids. As if they don't already have enough problems.

I'd love to be a fly on the wall for that one.
Go Boehner go.

Hope Obama eats a bacon cheeseburger for lunch with Joe Biden. Barack could stand to put on a few lbs... he's looking painfully thin lately. (or maybe he's always been skinny and I've just never noticed)

Michelle is keeping her eye on the fat folks...he would never be allowed to gain an ounce.
Since it is mentioned in his schedule about obesity we are still on topic.. Michelle gave legitimacy to that topic.

Funny you should mention that... just started a new thread about that very issue. Check it out. Interesting undertones in that project.

The First Lady's Childhood Obesity Project

Funny nobody's mentioned the cost... what's another billion among friends, right?

The feds spend $15 billion a year on nutrition in schools; the White House wants at least a $1 billion increase this coming fiscal year.

Just so I understand, judging by this post, to be "on-topic" for this thread the article just has to mention the time and Obama in it right?

And I am okay with spending a bit more on school lunches. The crap they served when I was in school was a disgrace. Lets spend a few more bucks so our kids can eat fresh veggies and decent meat. Not this frozen processed crap they serve now.
