The Program of Health Excellence, Inc., the Love People Inc., volunteers and young ladies who attended the Youth Leadership Conference want to thank the many sponsors that made the conference possible.

More than 20 young ladies attended the full-day conference. Each one of the young ladies said how thankful they were that someone took time to offer this type of training. The youth participated in sessions from developing a code of conduct; how to manage money; the importance of education; how to improve their community; knowing their roles in the school, church and the community; character building; making public presentations; caring for their bodies; and preserving their spirit, soul and body.

Special presentations on community involvement were made by Verna Rutherford of the Chamber of Commerce and a lesson in the history of Juneteenth was presented by Fabiola Small.

Thank you to Mrs. Johnson, Mrs. Sinegal, Mrs. Kyle, Mrs. Vincent, Mrs. Pickey, Mrs. Guy, Mrs. Turner and Mrs. Mosley. Thanks to the following sponsors: Port Arthur Weed and Seed, Gabriel Funeral Home, STAT Care EMS, CCMB Medical Supplies, Total Petrochemicals USA, Huntsman Corp., L.G.B. Taylor Publishing, Peacock Heavenly Massages, Mr. Wade McCray, Christian Church of Port Arthur/Groves, The MED Clinic, Juneteenth Pageant Committee, African American Cultural Society, Love People Inc, and W.M. Elmore Consultant. It is the youth of our community who profited from your support and we thank you.

Should Obama get credit or blame?
In a long Saturday Nov. 12 feature column, the writer suggested that President Obama "could only take credit or blame for those things that are the result of his ideas." He then listed twelve items for consideration in making that assessment. An only slightly edited version of those twelve items will make them more useful for that purpose and that version follows. (1) President Obama inherited Bush's Great Recession....which had actually been created, not by Bush, but by a failed seventy year experiment in socialism. (2) He stabilized the banking system....using borrowed money. (3) He extended unemployment benefits....using borrowed money. (4) He reduced taxes....using borrowed money. (5) He signed a health-care law....funded by borrowed money. (6) A nuclear arms treaty was signed with the Soviet Union....which had been defeated by Ronald Reagan twenty years ago. (7) Job loss steadily decreased and eventually has resulted in job gains....among government workers and funded by borrowed money. (8) Obama saved the three American auto companies....using borrowed money. (9) He passed a stimulus plan....using borrowed money. (10) Several Al Qaeda leaders were killed....by our remarkable military teams trained during the Bush Administration. (11) The President is trying to solve the nation's short and long-term economic problems....using borrowed money. (12) President Obama has been willing to compromise....in order to raise taxes or borrow more money.
Based on the writer's list, does President Obama deserve credit or blame?
