I thought my life had gone into a nose dive once again. I had been reading a book that was not holding the usual fascination for me. Perhaps because it is a story revolving around Venice and Denmark, and it could be that I don't know enough about that part of the world to relate. It turns out that De'on bought me a paperback for a "sick present"—a tradition in this family. You might skip Christmas or birthdays with this group, but hell hath no fury like if you miss a sick present. My Mom was always right there with a sick present. Then just the other day De'on brought me a used book by Michael Creighton and I zipped through both of these giftys. One concerned World War 2 and the other was about the medical establishment. I loved the subjects and loved the books. Finished the Creighton book last night. Thank you, De'on.
Well, Ted Kennedy just endorsed Obama for President and the crowd is going wild. Caroline Kennedy is joining in the endorsement. Well big Whoo Whee! It has about the same effect that Bill lends to Hillary's, the buddies of Hugo Chavez, and those Hollywood loons. I would like to caution all those who read this post to very carefully keep in mind our vital interest in the Middle East. Let no one fool you; they are the number one issue. The War on Terror is the most important issue we have. It always has been and has never ceased to be. I am pretty much in the know of World War 2; I know little about World War 1, a little bit about the Civil War, Korea, Vietnam and the list goes on.
The Bible states clearly that there will be wars and rumors of wars until the very end of time. We are really to pay no attention to those who shout peace, peace when there is no peace. Well the Democratic candidates are all shouting peace and I sure don't see any of that anywhere in this old world. Here is another little tidbit to ponder about the Middle East: its vast supply of oil. An oil rich area is and has always been a target area for the rest of the world. It is now and it will be in the future. For us to believe that we can farm our way out of it is an illusion and nothing more. In the first place, we are facing a crisis with the water situation the world over. Of course there is no infinite supply of fossil fuels.
China and Russia have joined with Iran in helping to establish that country as a nuclear power. Now Greg sees McCain as too much of a liberal for his taste. I did not like McCain’s take on illegal immigration, but then I was completely put-out with the President on it too. A grassroots movement with 80% of the American population coming against them on this put a stop, or rather slowed down, this political suicide movement. We want closed, sealed, and secure borders and we want the flow of immigration to be where those that obey the laws of our immigration system become legal citizens.
A Suburban vehicle was pulled over because of missing lights and low and behold, there were 14 illegal immigrants on their way to the East Coast. One was wanted for murder here in the USA. How many of the 500 trucks from Old Mexico hold Illegals and are traveling our highways and byways with government approval? We are the voters and our vote is the life’s blood of the politician. We need to understand also that there truly is a block of voters comprised of whites, blacks, and Latino’s. None of these hold a majority in numbers anymore. Those who are the concerned will be right in the voting booth and nothing will stop them. Those who are concerned but would rather find fault with the people’s choice will ever be too busy to vote. Each person needs to decide just what issue is the most important to them and it really should not be a race-based or gender based decision. It should be an absolute priority vote for those who wish to keep us safe from our many enemies. China and Russia were our allies in World War 2. They now want our heads on a platter. The Islamic Extremist wants to serve that same head on that platter. I will support the Republican candidate that is finally chosen for that ticket for I cannot with a clear conscious support the contenders of the Democratic Party. I want to remain a free nation under God with life, liberty, and justice for all. That means keeping our country safe from enemies both foreign and domestic. Sounds familiar doesn't it?
SUPPORT THE TROOPS!

Awesome post, Mother Dear and I will of course be wanting to borrow your DVDs. How long do you get to keep them?
And I'm glad you liked the books. However, you forgot to mention that I also got you a little high heel door stopper. Perhaps Lisa and Gary didn't know that is the only reason I add this thought. ;)
State of the Union. Do we dare count how many times the Democrats sat on their duffs when they had the opportunity to at least appear a bit graceful when it comes to human life, here, there, the lab, and abroad!
Our President's last. We've all been through a great deal the last 7 years. We all look a little worse for the wear. mmhh.
But I did see one of Kerry's eyebrows go up. I was quite impressed by that. I didn't know that any parts of his face could move. It was quite cute if you're into the whole wooden puppet and wire thing!
I agree with Virgie Bell that our country's security and the battle against fundamentalist Islamic Terrorism are the most important issues to consider in this coming Presidential election.
I now believe that John McCain will get the Republican nomination, and he is our strongest candidate (along with Giuliani) in defending our country, and taking the fight to the evil and cowardly Islamic enemy. The Democrats are totally lame on this most important issue!
If McCain wins Florida, he will probably be the nominee. If Giuliani wins Florida (he is running 3rd in the polls), he is back in the Game.
