State of the YOUnion

January 27, 2011

 

Raynard Jackson

 

Two nights ago, President Obama delivered his annual State of the Union address and, as usual, he declared the state of our union is good.  No president has ever said anything differently.  Every president is only going to put the best face on the state of affairs in our country. 

 

But, the state of our union is not great.  We have runaway deficits, high unemployment, unbridled partisan bickering, crumbling infrastructures (bridges, roads, etc.), and a Congress wi

Obama Drama, State of the Nation

We must admit this Harvard Negro is well skilled in the art of rhetoric, logic and lying that are so needed for all politicians since time immemorial, especially since the time of Machiavelli and his discourse on The Prince.


Tonight we heard more of the same flowery imagery and metaphors this character is known for internationally.

His ability to stay on the plane of abstraction is remarkable, but while the c

There are many misconceptions about what actually happened during the attempt at practicing democracy in the great nation of Cote d'Ivoire. The dispute of who was voted to be the next president has caused much misinformation to be written in well known periodicals who take the word of officials who have been given a mandate to assure that the will of the Ivorian people NOT be respected but the needs of western interests be honored.

While the majority of our clients use their Trade Show Display for trade shows; there are other venues where they can be impactful. In a corporate lobby where your customers and the public frequent, pop up banner stands can convey a powerful message about your company in quick form. Eye-catching, graphic art work says more in short order, than a long sale pitch ever could. If room allows, a modular trade show display with back wall interchangeable graphics, is a good way to post up-to-date infor
