When picking oranges, do not discard the ones that happen to fall into your hands.

Of course not...

"It happens with freedom of speech issues with the homos and the femmies."
Doesn't seem that anyone is restricting your speech here.

er....I hope I am interpreting this correctly... And, you forgot to add the other part of this quote. The part about the second amendment!!

I have realistic expectations s-r.

Well, I won't put any of my money in the pot LG... These clowns, IMHO, ain't no better than the next bunch. GW may have his head extracted a lot farther than Clinton did, personally I still mumble under my breath on occasion..."Who will protect us from our protectors??"

Meaning that this is the only place where I live, and the only place that I concern myself with.

Kinda hard these days ain't it?? I know what you're saying. With regard to Perry, maybe a letter of reprimand, maybe take a stripe, maybe twenty days extra duty, would have takin care of this. Tarnishing the guys rep by trying him is wayyyyyyy over the line IMO.

The chaplin needs to toughen himself up a bit. Ten to one he was nowhere near the hot zone. If he was, I'd bet he'd be a different kinda guy...

Good chattin with you again, see ya the next time our paths cross...

I never made a commentary on Perry, his case was tried and he was found innocent...these things happen.

I still hold however, that when anyone does something they know for a fact is against the law, they should be tried, in accordance with the law...soldier, baker, or candlestick maker.

It doesn't work that way all the time, but we can't walk away from the practice simply because it isn't perfect.

As far as who is in power in DC today, and their actions, I look for them to move the chains...like in a football game, ten yards at a time. I look for first downs, and not for a touchdown on every play. It took an awful long time to get where we are, and it's going to take some time to get back, if we ever do.

God could have made the world in a moment, in the blink of an afterthought of an idea, but He didn't. Nor did He simply erase the board clean and start all over in similar fashion, He let it rain for forty days and forty nights, and waited for the waters to subside.

If He exhibited such patience, who am I to rush the tide of time?

See you soon.
