Stuart Shepard who reportedly works for James Dobson’s Focus on The Family appears on a video asking God to send down a rainstorm Aug 28, 2008 at Mile High Stadium two minutes before Barack Obama’s acceptance speech starts at the Democratic National Convention. He wants that rain to be so hard that network TV cameras can’t see the podium and that attendees can’t get to indoor cover fast enough.
If his prayers have been answered, it appears they over shot. Instead of a rain storm to interrupt Obama’s speech, a level four hurricane is on the way to disrupt the Republican convention.The irony is inescapable. You ask for inclement weather to disrupt the Democrats convention and weather you get to the tenth power for your own convention.

Publisher's Statement
U.S.A. ThisWeek is a national weekly news magazine, the print version will soon be launched that will provide national weekly news-media representation for African Americans and fill a long standing news-media void. It’s our{mosimage} position that, until African Americans have a national voice that presents a perspective representing our interests and concerns on a weekly basis, we are relegated to less than full participation in the society. With the establishment of U.S.A ThisWeek, no longer will the area of news be dominated by the mainstream news media nor will the proliferation of traditional pundits, politicians and news readers have a monopoly on the opinions and perspectives being posited to the public.
In addition, with the new threat to our existence of international terrorism which places us all at risk, we can no longer remain quiescent and allow information that would address that threat to go unreported. Right now we’re in a Russian roulette posture based on the assessment of the current administration that “they only have to be right once; we have to be right all the time.”
