We will not tire, we will not falter, and we will not fail!
Good morning!!
Do not let the victims of the attacks on New York and Washington, nor the brave members of our Nation's military who have given their lives to protect our freedom, die in vain!!
The best news of the whole immigration fiasco appears this morning--the non-amnesty amnesty bill appears stalled in the Senate in the face of opposition from some GOP members (including the Commonwealth's Allen) who have the temerity to call McCain's bill what it is, amnesty for lawbreakers.
After a decision from the Colorado attorney general that would not support the action, Shaw Heights Middle School in Westminster, CO, surrendered and dropped its ban against the display of the American flag.
For AMERICA - The Right Way, I remain yours in the Cause, the Chairman.
I've heard disturbingly liberal stuff emanating out of Ft. Collins too. Of course another university town....
We're thinking it might rain here today, too.
I am so glad the family is enjoying themselves. It is good to get away every now and then.
Do you know how Trent Lott's suit against the insurance company is progressing. I'm thinking his will set the precedent.
Good Morning. Beautiful here this Am. Beanie and I walked almost 1 mile. Actually Beanie probably ran 5 miles to my one.
Has anyone hear of a ranking member of the Ethics Committee, whose net worth has increased by 50 fold?
prairie, not only are these people in CO liberal, they are very socialistic and some very anti American. It's a shame. Colorado Spring is very conservative, it has a lot of military and retired military and they are usually Very conservative.
Good morning all. Thanks for the start Chariman.
Oh, and GO JEFF SESIONS!!!
Your mom's ignoring me.;^)
She does that some times. At the house we do mean things to her like pour water on her head when she does that. :)...but you didnt hear that from me. :)
How is Ev doing? How many days till his return?
Am I incorrect in thinking V. Fox cannot run for election?
I thought he had only one 6 year term.
I worry about the oil coming from Venezuela, we get about 4 million barrels a day from them. If this anti-American fellow wins in Mexico, we have Chavez in Venezuela and Castro in Cuba. They can cause a lot of trouble. (Plus the socialist/communists we have in this country, ie, ole broadbeam and her cohorts) Also we have experienced trade with Mexico before, when they nationalized our companies, well Venezuela did the same thing to "our" oil companies some years ago.
We have had the illegal aliens coming into this country ever since we put quotas on immegrants. Our "illegal alien" problem with Mexico began in WWI and increased in WWII. During these two wars we imported guest workers to work areas that were normally held by men who were now fighting a war. The "Bracero program" worked very well during time of war. It was not until after WWII when we began electing Democrats who began social programs to help those uneducated, working poor in this country that we began having problems with immigrents coming here to get on the free lunch band wagon. For years Russians have been bringing their families over (legally) for that reason. As the years have gone by, word of the "good life" in America has been passed around to family members and they too wanted a better life. Most of the Mexicans coming here illegally are uneducated peasants who have always lived on someone else's property, working for the "big house" owners. I'm not condoning the people coming here illegally, and I think something has to be done to stop the flow. If we didn't have the socialist programs so freely given to anyone who applied, I doubt very much we would have this HUGE illegal immigration problem we are experiencing now. These are just my thoughts from information I've gathered over the years. I wish we could stop ALL illegals from coming here, but our borders are too vacant and too long. America is truly the Shining Star on the Hill", and so many people want to be part of if.
...UNITED STATES SENATE SHELVES IMMIGRATION "REFORM" BILL--UNABLE TO PREVENT AMENDMENTS BY REPUBLICANS, SENATE VOTES 60-38 TO TABLE
Got home yesterday @1700, ingested massive quantities of pizza and lesser quantities of Heineken, regaled us with stories of life in the desert, and took his sweetie out for night on the town.
Got up early this a.m. (early for me; late for him) and is now hanging out with his best buddy.
He's home for two weeks.
I am back. I had to uninstall AOL, reinstall it, and get new phone number access.
Off to check my pings!
I think this country needs to stop and eleminate ALL socialist programs and put ALL Americans to work. We need to stop encouraging people to ride the "free meal" bandwagon and work for their food and meds. Most of us do, but we have a whole generation that have been riding this wagon since 1965. This would eleminate a lot of illegals coming here for the free ride. My thoughts. Drastic, but it sure would stop a lot of stuff from happening.
I'm very glad to hear! Please make sure you enjoy this time together!
WELL!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Aren't you going to say something about the Homecoming yesterday? I'm all ears. I'll bet y'all stayed up until everyone's eyes were at half-mast.
'Mornin' Ev, welcome home.
Check yesterday's thread. I expounded ad nauseum.:)
I am so happy to hear it. Hopefully the medic was able to hold his alcohol after the long desert detox. Its good to have him safe at home for a while. I'm praying that it is a good time here for him.
Thank you kayak. Very interesting read. Money just seems to stick to some people, like bubble gum on a hot sidewalk.
