A Guest Responds to Rice and Kerry
I read your blog on the Secretary of State fiasco and I am so glad someone has put out there what is actually happening. I am especially distressed about what I am seeing in the media and hearing about this Susan Rice thing. Imagine putting such a lovely young woman through such trials because…
Read MoreSecretary of State???
copyright 2012 Bettina Network, inc. Lordy – what did that guy say? ‘Much ado about nothing’? Well, this is NOT much ado about nothing. This is as much ado as possible to drown Susan Rice and make sure John Kerry is the next Secretary of State. Nothing personal Susan. And it has nothing to do…
Read MorePetraeus over Breakfast
copyright 2012 Bettina Network, inc. Just when you think things are calmer, up comes a topic of conversation over breakfast which could have fried the organic, free of the cage eggs.

Read MoreBreakfast Table Talk about Debit Cards
copyright 2012 Bettina Network, inc. We’ve had a two day breakfast session. The first morning we casually talked about banks, credit cards, debit cards and the rip-off happening to all of us. One guest at the table was a banker. I should say a disillusioned banker who was dealing with how to maintain the ethical…
Read MoreAnother Civil War in America
copyright Bettina Network, inc. 2012 This could be subtitled “democracy vs dictatorship”. It was a very exciting morning to be a part of a discussion on this topic which I had not thought about in terms of our being in the middle of a civil war between those who want us to be a democracy…
Read MoreThe New Hampshire Primary, etc.
copyright Bettina Network, inc. 2012 I know there are discussions going on around the Bettina Network about the Republican Primary.
