A Twofer: Parham and the book of Eli; Obama One Year In
First my friend Robert Parham has gotten great endorsement from The Book of Eli's Denzel Washington.
I feel like I know Denzel, having a lifelong friend who has known Denzel since early 80's. And that preacher's kid stuff gives you a way of looking at the world, allthem Stories from the Bible growing up never leave you.
Here is a great tribute to not only to Denzel but to Robert Parham and his effort on www.differentbookscommonword.com

And Religion dispatches has great piece up today, strong piece on the Obama Presidency One Year End in the framework of the Mass Senate Race between Coakley and Scott
Takes strong measure of the United States at this point as well.
We are all in this thing together, and I hope that registers with Mary Anne Cole, Lowell Barron, the Morgan family and other forces in Northeast Alabama and your region as well.
