Some posters here knock Gene Taylor, but he votes with the GOP on most important issues.

I haven't stopped laughing since I heard O'Bama is Irish.

Isn't if funny that liberals don't discover their true ethnicity until they run for national office?

John Kerry's Jewish, ya know :)

How long before you've completely recovered from your ordeal?

You've really been through it.

They were a couple for around 10 years.

Whoa ...

And Ronstadt used to be a babe.

Now she looks like Helen Thomas :o

I figure if you factor in the leftwing bias of the polls, Congress has about a 22% approval rating.

And that was BEFORE today.

Oh, it's new ... just previewed at a local theatre that does new musicals. Headed for Broadway with a few changes that my friend and I could easily make.

Where will you be getting on the train? Are the kids gonna ride home with you on the train after having flown out there?

I've done several train trips from the Northeast down to MS and back. Our two younger kids and I rode from MA down to Orlando a few years ago to meet the Hobbit Hole Freepers for a vacation. I love the train, but SirKit hates it; he gets bored just sitting there or just being in a confined space for so long. However, he has expressed interest in taking the train part of the way across Canada to the Canadian Rockies. That one has a tall dome area where you can sit up high to see the sights. That would be fun!

I'm impatient too, altura.

But jonny's right. The same bozos who are saying the Bush will never compare with Reagan will someday saying that the next guy will never compare with Bush.

(Only then they'll be right. :)

Of course he is. I believe him. I haven't noticed that all these ethnicities they find late in life are the Left's pet minorities. Nope. Not me. Not observant like that at all. Uh, uh. Honest injun.

I would bet you that if Reagan were president now, he'd be dragged through the mud on FR just as much as GWB--and by the very people that seem to deify him.

Folks either don't know, or choose to forget, that some Republicans were just as brutal toward Reagan in his last couple of years as they are about President Bush now.

It's amazing how easily some conservatives can turn on the folks they previously supported, just because they see it everywhere else.

Does anybody even realize what he has on his plate and yet he's stuck to his principles about everything.

Exactly! About EVERYTHING!

Someday even Rush will understand what this President has done.

For those of us who are pro-life, pro-family, he is even more conservative than Reagan. And when you just objectively look at what he's done in the realm of the judiciary and moving the country back to having a culture of life, there is NO way you would say that Reagan was better.

None of this makes sense to me.

I wish I knew. On Monday, I'm going to get the bone stimulator. If this doesn't work, I guess I get to do the bone graft surgery. That was my orthopedist's original suggestion until he decided to go with the bone stimulator. I'm having issues with the ankle today and the weird thing is I've barely walked at all. And when I did, I had the cam walker on. And now I'm having issues with my left knee again because the cam walker makes me off balance. It's all so much fun...
