The governor's budget officer Rosemary Booth Gallogly hasn't been named to President Obama's economic advisory board.

But her brother has.

Mark T. Gallogly, an investment banker from New York and Rosemary's brother-in-law, is among 15 appointees who "will provide an independent voice on economic issues and will be charged with offering independent advice to the President as he formulates and implements his plans for economic recovery," according to a statement released by Obama last week.

"It's awesome," Rosemary Gallogly told us of her brother's appointment. "It's amazing to think that we flip burgers, shuck corn and play hig-low jack together! It is a great Rhode Island success story."

She noted that Mark Gallogly, one of one of 11 children of the late Judge Edward Gallogly, a former Chief of the Family Court, has a summer home in Rhode Island.

He is the founder and managing partner for New York-based Centerbridge Partners L.P.

Obama created the board by executive order last week. Other members include a Harvard economics professor, the CEO of General Electric and the secretary-treasurer of the AFL-CIO.

An open letter to our new 444th POTUS President of The United States on the occasion of this Sundays Lincoln Day Breakfast February 15, 1009.

President B H Obama - Doctor Mildred F Jefferson, MD a very accomplished Boston, MA physician (that happens to be black and was raised in the state of Texas) and I both spoke of you at a Lincoln Day Sunday Morning Breakfast 02/15/09 at Fall River, MA. We noted and applaud your embracing POTUS President of The United States Abe Lincoln hopefully now even beyond to his playbook and much further on to a true role model if not mentor! We both agreed to send you are warmest regards and let you know that we also recognize and understand / are concerned re some of the other very dangerous play books that you are also following. Now that the election season is over and you have started to embarked your 4 year journey we were surprised by some of the issues that have cropped up so early especially after an almost perfect campaign.
We ask you to consider this early feedback as you now must buckle down to some very serious business.

Per Plains Radio plainsradio.com internet web radio & Google plus Web based news services Mr Obama POTUS # 44 has let his dog lawyers go and threatened those asking questions as to his vetting e.g. meeting the US Constitution requirements for POTUS? The MSM main stream media either does not report this situation or companion lower court and SCOTUS challenges or clearly distorts and misinforms the citizens! This is shocking and very unhealthy to say the least. I do not understand this behavior at all?! Mr Obama and his lawyers seem to be following rule # 5 of revolutionaries and that is to threaten, defame, and discredit those questioning them! Every citizen should and must be treated with respect and I find this behavior shocking. Yes, if true and even said to be paid for by Mr. Obama we are very disappointed to say the least! Anyone going in the US Armed Services must provide a lot more information especially if they require a US DOD Security clearance. As well private companies engaged in defense work as well require several employees to get from the US DOD Security clearances. Moreover even major private employers require a real long form birth certificate, SS card, drivers license, selective service card and residence history , education history et al. Mr Obama has his hand on the USA DOD weapons triggers and he has not been vetted correctly is the prevailing opinion.! Finally WOW I am truly shocked if this is true? I respectively wish to remind mr Obama that this is a constitutional Republic with a representative Democracy UNDER THE RULE OF LAW. Just because he won an election for one of the Co equal branches of government and his party presently has a thin majority does not exempt him from our constitution and the rule of Law. May I remind him that in my life time we have had both VPs and presidencies of The United States replaced for violations of the constitution and the rule of law. Again no one is above the Law.
Last once president you are ALL the peoples president and they have great expectations for your success going forward. Accordingly I caution you to not tread on our US Constitution - usurping powers that you and the government just was not granted by the citizens. Second I caution you to advise and consent with your co equal branches of government. Now one last advisement please clear up forthright and clearly the questions surrounding your qualifications to be president of The United States (vetting) ASAP. If you continue to game the game even if you had a wink and nod from both political parties such will not cut it. If you are lawyering the laws in place at the time of your birth vs the laws of today forget it this dog will not Hunt. No web based fact check and or equivalent is not a substitute either. So We hope that you will rapidly as a man clear this matter up completely with dispatch. If you can not clear it up regardless of your backers , handlers and your political dogma I suggest that you go quietly and peaceable. That is if you have any self-respect and and respect for this country. Yes, and you have apparently embraced our / my friends & fellow citizens that happen to be black. I hope that for their sake that you as well will rise to the occasion and do the right thing.
If you let this cancer continue to fester and continue the stone wall and passive aggressive behaviors coupled to letting the lawyer dogs attack our fellow citizens you will have soiled your self and our country and its flag. The wheels of justice may grind slowly but they will continue to grind exceedingly fine. In the end justice will done and this matter resolved to the satisfaction of The Rule of LAW.

Again, Oh, Mr Obama Doctor Mildred F Jefferson, MD a very accomplished Boston, MA physician (that happens to be black and was raised in the state of Texas) and I both spoke of you at a Lincoln Day Sunday Morning Breakfast 02/15/09 at Fall River, MA. We noted and applaud your embracing POTUS President Abe Lincoln hopefully beyond to his playbook and even further on to a true role model if not mentor. We both agreed to send you are warmest regards and let you know that we also recognize and understand / are concerned re some of the other very dangerous different play books that you are also following. We both urge you to reconsider and correct this wrongheaded set of tactic and strategies. Yes, and certain emerging devastating policies (especially regarding human life born & unborn) and become the President of all the people while such is still possible. You must now depart from campaign rhetoric and gaming / half truths and move on to honestly make assessments and learn to lead and govern growing into the job. Yes we are acutely aware that ALL three branches of our government have failed us for the calamities that we face today to have materialized. We especially do not view our congress as reliable and dependable or projecting a wiliness to do the peoples business in the peoples best interest. Rather we see self-interest and corruption in a closed club. No one will follow you for long just because you won an election if you do not produce and show some progress and understanding. Please do not think that the congress especially your own political party has your or the countries well being as one of their top priorities. Unfortunately they have demonstrated a dangerous and unhealthy even destructive set of behaviors. It is the peoples duty to attend to the wholesale cleansing of the houses of congress every two years over the next six years and beyond. The people remain your boss and still own the government. You and your party while important are only designated care takers for a very short period subject to an accounting by the people.. Please get to work first resolving this cloud still hanging over you (re vetting) since the primarily and general election period. No games in congress to attempt to go around the US Constitution re vetting & Natural Born citizen and Senate resolutions that do not have the force of law and do not take precedence and are not statues etc. We now await your very careful consideration and subsequent decision and anticipate a timely and clear response in the form of a course correction. May God give all of us the strength to return to a correct course and attend to the peoples business in his and their name with in the frame work of the US Constitution..
