  • Nothing to argue with in any of this, Mike. Keep the good thoughts flowing. As I have been saying for a long time....until something else really awful happens in this country, our citizens will not stand together.

  • Our borders are not safe...period. Until we get someone in charge who is to the right of Lou Dobbs, say, we are all at risk. All of our troops and money at home is the next step. If we are all together, we can watch ourselves just fine.

    Totally agree with your disdain of Bin Laden. Totally. I'm also quite dismayed at him being likened to a soldier who fought & so deserving of aa Military Ceremony. He was not near similar. Seems we have forgotten, such a slap in the face. We spent money on his burial. Good money following bad.

    Words can not really express my disappointment

    If someone comes into my home & rapes and/or brutalized my children, they are dead. No ceremony, just finished....They were not honorable or respectful. They will get none from me.

    An eye for an eye. He will face his Maker asap & receive whatever Honor he deserves, rightly so.

    Everyone, regarding my last post. I campaigned for Frank Church in 1968 and was ready to do so many times again. As a "newbee" member, I asked permission based in part on Bazookaman's last blog and my upbringing.

    Tomorrow.

  • I liked Frank Church, he was the last of his breed. So many families benefited from his stewardship to his office.

    At the end I was disappointed with the Panama Vote, but I will continue to respest his memory.

    I agree totally with you Zook about this particular enemy. They do not respect their own peoples lives let alone ours. What makes it scary is that they will not hesitate to take out civilians.

    In Independence, they had a Mayor's Prayer Breakfast with a guest speaker who had been a Muslim and converted to Christianity. He had also been a terrorist and was trained with that mentality growing up. People were more afraid of offending Muslims in the community by having him speak than to listen to what he had to say, which was not hateful, but a simple statement of the facts as he experienced them.

    Thankfully, the Mayor stuck to his guns and kept to principals to allow this man to speak. I looked him up on the internet, he has a book out and a web site. He has a very interesting story to tell. He did not rail against the Muslim people, but did share his experiences of being on both sides of the fence.

    If he ever comes back to Independence, I think that I would go to hear him speak.

    We did spend money. Our people are worth time.

    But I'm not going to continue to argue this point.
