White House Farmer Contest

You can vote for your favorite farmer!

I applaud the Obama's for doing this , I think it's really a good sign that the man has an interest in this and that one of the first things he does is plant a garden.

What it means to me is that he is who he says he is ,a guy who cares ,you don't plant a Garden if you are a cynical power broker whose only goal is to kept the chain of exploitation unbroken.

Not saying it's a miracle of the ages or anything just that I respect him for doing this

Wow - I think that is so cool! Not only will they be consuming locally grown, organic food themselves, they'll be helping food banks as well. Even the little things count so much!

Thank GOODNESS for some good, positive news!

You're welcome !
I agree we don't focus on the positive ,I think if someone especially someone who is a public figure and a leader does something right it is our job to notice and reinforce that

FYI if Bush had ever done anything right, I would have noticed and reinforced
I tried

oops I just remembered Bush DID do something right ,he made a coral reef somewhere a protected wildlife refuge!

Thanks George!
