Please don't be too disappointed, or even look upon this as totally "bad news". It wasn't even meant to pass at this time, according to the House Republican leadership.

It was, however, meant to force our congressional representatives to declare a stand on the issue one way or the other.

The declaration of many of the republicans who voted against the ammendment will not play well when they come up for re-election, thus creating an opening for a more conservative candidate. This scenario may also hold true for many of the democrats who voted against the ammendment.

So don't "throw in the towel" yet, Jeremiah !

Thanks for the encouraging words. I gotta take the long view...

Every now and then I lose a little of my natural enthusiasm and want to go sit in a corner with my head down.
