Webster http://sgrwebster.com/?p=1465 Ted Kennedy

Ted Kennedy, youngest brother of Joseph Kennedy Jr. (died 1944 as a war hero) assassinated President John F. Kennedy (1963), and Presidential candidate & Senator Robert F. Kennedy (1968) died today after serving nine terms (47 years) in the Senate.

I saw the world and the political spectrum very differently from Senator Kennedy, but today I join many Americans in mourning another loss for the Kennedy family.

Webster http://sgrwebster.com/?p=1461 Such an important topic. As an avid fan of the medium, I’m always thrilled to hear voices speaking about it redemptively. I love the Centre for Public Christianity, and I love film, so this was a solid gold find.

Enjoy.

Also, as a super-terrific bonus, he’s made a fascinating documentary called Purple State of Mind

Webster http://sgrwebster.com/?p=1327 I have many Christian friends who are entirely skeptical about the very existence of global warming.

To these friends I offer this reasoned, scientific, believing response.

Webster http://sgrwebster.com/?p=1109 Branding is something the Obama team did exceptionally well during the campaign.

Their skill continues…

Heard about this on the way home from school today on NPR. Every new project funded from the
American Recovery and Reinvestment Act will feature this logo. It’s a subtle but very smart move – further demonstrating that the Obama administration knows how to communicate and market itself to 21st Century Americans.

The NRA logo represents one of FDR’s 1933 New Deal programs.
