People will continue to be loose with their sexuality for as long as men do not have to face the repercussions of their actions. If men can impregnate with impunity because welfare will raise their kids or they assume women will just abort, then they have no incentive to be real men.

Actually, I think that consequences for the woman have more of a role to play here. Once upon a time, a woman would be extremely selective in her partner(s), because she wouldn't want to find herself pregnant with no means to take care of herself and the child, not to mention the social stigma, so she said "no" quite firmly until she got at least some level of commitment from the guy, whether it be a wedding ring or an "I love you". Feminists fooled women into believing that promiscuity was empowerment, and Uncle Sucker and his handouts took care of the financial consequences. Essentially, Uncle Sucker is subsidizing promiscuity. Remove the subsidy, and women would be burdened with consequences again. Once women are burdened with consequences, they won't be giving out the milk for free anymore. If women started saying "no" again, that would be that.

i am so glad i am married to a man who loves MEEEEE!

I was there today. The facebook group is racking them up!!! It’s great! Good on ya!!! I now have so many friend requests, I can’t hardly keep up with them. And to think I only joined FaceBook to follow Sarah.
You are so right about the power in numbers.

It seems unlikely - lol...

Remove Spanx and immediately you hear a voice in your head ~

Let it all hang out.

Uh oh, you mean this isn’t, like, permanent ?

disclaimer: I’ve never worn Spanx but I can tell you if I did I’d turn into Cinderella, skedaddling at midnight.

No kidding!

I wouldn’t bet on Spanx doing anything of the sort.

A gentleman caller knew instantly from a gentle pat on the fanny that ...

There is a logical disconnect in this sentence.

Sorry Huckleberry, Woods invited everybody into his front room when he held himself out as a role model...and accepted the vast sums of money that were predicated on his clean image.

“I think it’s an honor to be a role model to one person or maybe more than that. If you are given a chance to be a role model, I think you should always take it because you can influence a person’s life in a positive light, and that’s what I want to do. That’s what it’s all about.”
Tiger Woods quote

On his show, first he says that if he had that file in front of him today, he would make the same decision, which is nuts not to say that you maybe should have taken a deeper look at it and....right after that he says, there’s a story that’s getting even more attention this week than the 4 police officers that were murdered that’s the Tiger Woods story???? Even if it’s true, why would he mention a stupid tabloid story, making it a higher priority? I’ll tell you why... because he’s a low life, POS moron!

Yep, it sucks to be handed an impossible task with no resources. I think 'Adapt and overcome' was the phrase I got beat into me.

You go with what you got.

I'm confused. Are you saying you had no textbooks of any kind? Is that what you mean by 'baseline materials'?

Did you have no blackboards? No chalk? No erasers?

Is that what you mean?

enough

it would have been a creative venture if we had had some materials to work with as a baseline.

Basline materials? WTF are those? I suppose "reading", "writing", and "arithmetic" were a bit to obvious?

likewise maine is a VERY LIBERAL state.

it’s liberalism is ripping apart the moral base, hence the poverty stretches further and further.

read the article again, please—slowly.

it would have been a creative venture if we had had some materials to work with as a baseline.

we had NONE.

our sparkly imaginations by which we could manufacture our own curricula.

I don't get it. Why didn't the teachers do just that? I'm not a professional educator, but I've taught lots of skills and knowledge to my own kids and lots of others. Whenever I'm around E-1 > E-3 (and sometimes O-1s), or around a civilian kid younger than 18... "It's always time for learning".

“Soon after we got notices from the school demanding to know what outside exercise programs our children were enrolled in to suplement school PE.”

Yeah, I remember that, he needed to be worried about his own fat brats.

Yeah!!!!! So glad your son is home safe Harry! Great news. Please thank him for his service and tell him we are celebrating his safe return home. :-)

(Bet he’ll eat a lot at Christmas! Better add to that grocery budget now! He he...Home for Christmas, Woo Hoo!!!)

“REAL” equals “Regional Educational Alternative Learning” and the building is located in South Windham, ME. That’s where I tried to teach.

Mass. is a VERY LIBERAL state.

“This is what government health care will look like.”

Yes and we are not exagerating.

Excerpt:

...

When I asked him one day how I could teach with nothing to teach with, director responded by saying that that was what made the alternative learning school so marvelously different from other schools. We were left with our own unique creative skills, our sparkly imaginations by which we could manufacture our own curricula.

So it was that teachers daily bent their brain cells in attempts to create something from nothing. Most of the time it did not work. That’s why the police cruisers drove up to the school several times a week. When desks flew across rooms, doors were punched through and teachers were told to go to hell, there were occasions when the cops had to be called in.

Yet this was the REAL School. There was no other school quite like it. We were the example for other schools to follow. The director reminded us that we were a model showcase.

Hmm whatever happened to all that tax money and Obama money for education?

I am glad you have him home for the holidays. Many here have had family members serve in Iraq and or Afghanistan, some currently serving. We all share that special heart felt support for every one of them and their families.

I am not a fan of Huckabee by any means but do feel he is getting a bit of a raw deal on this. I think even Fox has misreported this to a certain extent. Huckabee did not pardon the guy but granted him clemency on a nonviolent robbery conviction that he committed when he 16. Clemency does not release someone from prison but only reduces their sentence. In this instance, it went from 108 years to 49 years. All of the violent crimes and parole violations were committed when the guy was in the state of Washington.

This is what government health care will look like.

Huck is right. We should be focusing our attention on politicians who pardon career criminals to buy votes and who like to punish the innocent by refusing to punish the guilty.

You’re right. It won’t be an easy fight for Sarah, my choice.

We do not need you to tell us what to think.

He got on a kick about weight loss. He pushed for removal of vending machines from school. They ended up leaving them, but locking them up. I guess so teachers could use them.

Soon after we got notices from the school demanding to know what outside exercise programs our children were enrolled in to suplement school PE. The notice referenced a state law to support the demand for information.

I looked up the state law and it was legislation to establish a state nutrition board to advise the Governor. Nothing about demanding any info from parents. I am sure very few looked that information up and just assumed the law required their info.

I took a magic marker and wrote "NUNYA" on it and sent it back.

He also preached to us about accepting illegal aliens and how we were not "good Christians" if we didn't support law-breaking.

He has a tv show, he is making money, that is where he needs to be.

Doubt that. He would be a good foil for Romney to split the evangelical vote away from Sarah. Same tactic he used in 2008 on behalf of McCain.

If I were a rapist and a murderer, Huck would be my man. I’ve always wondered about people like him: If it was his daughter that was raped and murdered, would he still try for his release? Somehow I doubt it. I wish some one had the ball to ask him this question.

Actually Huckleberry, most of us don’t really care about what goes on with Tiger Woods. We do not need you to tell us what to think.

Your arrogance is astounding. You are a fool, Mike. A shameful fool pretending to be pious.

Huck is a pompous ass who will go to any extent to be Mr Popular, including commuting the sentences of anti social lunatics.

His ego driven ambition is repulsive.

I watched the video, I agree with Huck on this one. The celebrity fixation is sickening. Having said that I hope Huck stays out of the race on 2012. Then again he would be a good buffer to help Sarah mitigate Romney, who’s Mr. politics of personal attacks and sneakiness in primaries.

Well said!

Huck is right.

However it was a bit of a shock to the fans of squeaky clean married family man Tiger to see a sea of women fall out of his closet.

The story is now out and will be replaced with another, Lil late in the day for your two cents Huck.

Just like I am sure you want us to not pay attn. to Prison Pardons gone wrong.

People die over such choices in life Huck, Tiger is lucky his wife had enough self control to not give him a permanant head wound, unlike the 4 Washington Policemen who will never share another Christmas with freinds/family/community.

Go away now Huck. /rant

Thanks manc, it wasn’t easy, A lot of faith and prayers helped, that’s the only way to have any peace when your loved one are overseas.

Merry Christmas to you and yours!
