I’m not an alias. I think the childishness should stop.
Ron has been here a while and we have had some polite conversations. How about if we have an end to the tiffing?
Your rants are getting a little old to the rest of us also.
I’ve been watching your conversation with Ron from the start. You need to give it up. You’ve already embarrassed yourself enough for one thread.
Sarah Palin. Glenn Beck.
The absolute right people, at the right time, for the most important jobs, in my lifetime.
May God bless them, guide them and protect them.
I think it was intended as a reply to 252 (not 253.)
;)
“May God bless them, guide them and protect them.”
Amen and Amen!
Clarification: it's from the top of the Washington Monument.
I posted it shortly after you, but forgot to point out the origin.
LOL that is unfortunately easy to understand.
Will do.
“A couple blocks down the street its probably raining on Al.”
Even indoors! ;)
At least it’s raining on his parade! LOL.
Totally incorrect -- really? You do not know the moving story John Newton??
John Newton ultimately became captain of his own ship, one which plied the slave trade.
Although he had had some early religious instruction from his mother, who had died when he was a child, he had long since given up any religious convictions. However, on a homeward voyage, while he was attempting to steer the ship through a violent storm, he experienced what he was to refer to later as his great deliverance. He recorded in his journal that when all seemed lost and the ship would surely sink, he exclaimed, Lord, have mercy upon us. Later in his cabin he reflected on what he had said and began to believe that God had addressed him through the storm and that grace had begun to work for him.
For the rest of his life he observed the anniversary of May 10, 1748 as the day of his conversion, a day of humiliation in which he subjected his will to a higher power. Thro many dangers, toils and snares, I have already come; tis grace has brot me safe thus far, and grace will lead me home. He continued in the slave trade for a time after his conversion; however, he saw to it that the slaves under his care were treated humanely.
The music itself has been attributed to American folksong, however theory holds that it was something sung/hummed by the African slaves aboard ship, he put words to their music.
That was amazing...thanks for sharing!
As one travels the state, there are literally ten times more “dump Reid” types of bumper stickers than there are vote Reid bumper stickers.
Harry hasn’t made it past 44% all campaign. That’s a death knell for an incumbent. Angle has been keeping her powder dry through the summer because no one pays attention during the summer & she has limited funds in comparison to Harry.
Her ads have been perking up lately & have been very effective. The only way Angle blows it at this point is to completely screw up the debates which is not expected. In fact, many expect Harry to dodge the debate at the last minute due to “important” business back in Washington.
Have faith. We’re working hard to make sure Harry goes down. There’s A LOT more energy on this side than His. A LOT more.
BTW, did Beck & his supporting cast do a great job today or what? THAT’S what America is all about!
It’s called FRiends and we’re wondering why you picking on LV Ron.

And if he cant back-it-up, Sharptons big talk should be his last visit on any serious news program
Whenever I see that despicable thing on TV, I turn it off.. but being on Fox is probably the best chance for him to get seen. If it benefits Rev Bullhorn, he’ll do it.
We need a side by side of this photo & the one from today. A rather stark example of what the two sides are all about, metaphorically & otherwise.
