Well, a lot of things have happened
Since the last time we spoke
Some of them are funny
Some of them ain’t no joke
And I trust you will forgive me
If I lay it on the line
I always thought you were a friend of mine
And sometimes I think about you
I wonder how you’re doing, now
And what you’re going through
‘Cause the last time I saw you, we were playing with fire
We were loaded with passion and a burning desire
For every breath, for every day of living
And this is my thanksgiving
Now, the trouble with you and me, my friend
Is the trouble with this nation
Too many blessings, too little appreciation
And I know that kind of notion, well, it just ain’t cool
So send me back to Sunday school
Because I’m tired of waiting for reason to arrive
And it’s too long we’ve been living these unexamined lives
‘Cause I’ve got great expectations, I’ve got family and friends
I’ve got satisfying work, I’ve got a back that bends
For every breath, for every day of living
This is my thanksgiving
And have you noticed that an angry man
Can only get so far?
Until he reconciles the way he thinks things ought to be
With the way things are
Here in this fragmented world, I still believe
In learning how to give love, how to receive it
And I would not be among those who abuse this privilege
Sometimes you get the best light from a burning bridge
And I don’t mind saying that I, I still love it all
I wallowed in the springtime
Now, I’m welcoming the fall
For every moment of joy, every hour of fear
For every winding road that brought me here
For every breath, for every day of living
This is my thanksgiving
For everyone who helped me start
And for everything that broke my heart
For every breath, for every day of living
This is my Thanksgiving

Onward and Upward!
Let us ALL pull together now to defeat Clinton in November!
God Bless!
I know what passive-aggressive means.
And I know you’re being annoyingly passive-aggressive towards Jim.
Cruz lost. Take some time to grieve if you need to. Process. Take a break if you want.
But being spiteful while pretending to ‘just ask a question’ just makes you look petty.
Thank you Jim
Two thumbs up! I wish all the FReepers would call a truce and unite to defeat the Clinton mafia. I voted for Cruz in the primary but will crawl over broken glass to vote for Trump in the general. #neverclinton!
Hear! Hear!
The campaign to defeat SHRIILARY! and her legion of imbecile supporters is the most important endeavor in American History.
She represents an existential threat to the United States and the American way.
She wins, the USA is done.
I am gratified to hear a call for burying hatchets. While those who know me know I have my reservations about Mr. Trump, at this point rancorous arguments between us aren’t particularly productive, and I definitely don’t wish to see anyone with a ‘D’ after their name winning in November!
I shall be watching Mr. Trump with great interest to see what he says and what he proposes as he transitions from primary candidate to nominee.
Well your “guessing” wrong when it comes to those who supported Cruz. It’s not maybe it’s they are waiting for the convention and the official declaration of the nominee.... You can call it what you want but I am not a Romney supporter, and would vote for Trump over Romney any day if that should be the case...and not exactly happily either for ‘neither’ are my ideal....
This Primary has been the craziest most outlandish primary I’ve ever seen in my life....And most of it has further divided this country to what Obama already had massively divided. There is nothing traditional about this race ..nothing whatsoever....and further there’s another battle raging outside the actual election which is affecting the entire process....and therefore I have ‘no expectations regarding what the voters determine’ they will do....the lines are anything but clear especially for the states who have yet voted.....Added to that the propaganda is running thick by pundits as well as the social media.... along with the parties and pacs.
My candidate is no longer running therefore I’m waiting for the confirmation Trump ‘has to obtain’ to be the nominee. And why is that?...Because I’m not convinced he’s not going to bow out once he can fully lay the blame at someone else’s feet so he can walk away unscathed.
“I want a conservative picking Justices. I want a conservative running the executive branch. I want someone who can’t get along with the Dems or GOPe. That is not Trump.
I think when we all see the list of people Trump will choose from for SCOTUS, we will be pleased. He is going to publish the list soon.
I wish those who think Trump is not conservative would watch the video documentaries of Trump from back in 1998 AND read his website on the issues.
Donald Trump will make things happen in Congress by calling out those in Congress who are not doing their job and who do not put America first in their decisions. I am quite sure with Donald Trump as President we will turn on the CSPAN channels to see the House and Senate members actually in their seats working....instead of what we presently see with some member speaking to a mostly empty room!!
We all sure know what we will get if Hitlery is President!!
Still attacking Ted Cruz in an “All hostilities Must Cease” thread?
Why not give peace a chance and redirect your fire to the ‘RATS, Hillary and RINOs such as Paul Ryan? It’s worth a try.

I’m in.

Please.
I have not been posting things against Cruz, since he stood down.
I in fact, have been quite conciliatory. Cruz took enough guff. He was a good competitor.
Would be nice however if he got back together with Trump.
Just saying.
Anyone, no matter how well-intentioned, can do harm—if Trump changes the party platform on abortion, for instance. Or if he follows through with being neutral about Israel and Palestine.
God bless you and your family.

Don't you ever be sad
Lean on me when times are bad
When the day comes and and you're down
In a river of trouble and about to drown
Hold On, I'm coming
Hold On, I'm coming
I'm on my way your lover
When you get cold I'll be your cover
Don't have to worry 'cause I'm here
No need to suffer 'cause I'm here
Hold On, I'm coming
Hold On, I'm coming
Reach out to me for satisfaction
Call my name for quick reaction
Hey hey hey
Now don't you ever be sad
Lean on me when times are bad
When the day comes and you're down
In a river of trouble and about to drown
Hold On, I'm coming
Hold On, I'm coming
