Sarah McLachlan and Pink Perform ‘Angel’
The entertainment for this weekend is a performance of “Angel” from the 2008 American Music Awards last Sunday night by Sarah McLachlan and Pink. This duet combines an unexpected and very different pair of voices to produce arguably the best version of this song yet.
Enjoy!
Ronald Reagan – “Yes We Can”
It takes more than a pretty video and a bunch of celebrities singing to make a great president. It takes a person who understands where the true greatness of America lies.
Long before anyone ever heard of Barack Obama, Ronald Reagan challenged Americans to hope, to dream, to believe….
In themselves.
He brought change. He told us “yes we can”. Except he also told us we didn’t need government to do it. He inspired us with his words and his actions. He showed us that our individual liberty and creativity is what makes our country great not any government program.
Today, Americans are wowed by the empty oratory of politicians who promise nothing but failed socialism in disguise. Even John McCain cloaks himself in the mantle of Reagan but has shown throughout his career that he doesn’t understand Reagan’s philosophy. That is why he lost this election.
Reagan was an idealist AND an ideologue. His policies were based in his rock solid conservative ideology. That doesn’t mean he never compromised. But compromise is something different than standing on the same side of an issue with those who are supposed to be your political adversaries.
The original Yes We Can.
