I read these and don't get involed. I would never let what some one said keep me from all my friend even if some don't agree with my view. I figure we all can have a drink and talk about what we like when we are on the rock.

If this doesn't make any sence its because I've been in the hot tub with a big glass of bookers,
Good night

Their minds will not be burdened with the stereotypes that mine was in the 1960's...that is a great thing.

This country is great...I believe. :wink:
Sherban...Not sure what you are implying here. I also brought my then 3 year old Jack with me into the booth. I'll never forget that because he said something to me on the way to the polling venue that is unforgettable.

I was explaining (yes, to a 3 year old) where we were going, why it is important to do what we were about to do, no matter who it is you vote for, etc, etc...I'm rambling on and on and on and on (as I am want to do, as you know)...When out of the blue, the little man says to me, "Daddy...I want TWO bulldogs".

Not one. Two.

I did not need to vote for the black gentleman for my son to see that he does not need to be burdened by stereotypes. When we have come to that point as a society, we should just fold the tent.

The novel action is not always the progressive action. I believe Obama's election will send us into a regression like we have never seen before.

Not because of the color of his skin; rather, it is because of the content of his character.

*edited* to say I'm sorry I got drawn in. I don't want to play this game.

Really, CA girl, I don't see that. Please explain.
