It seems like something should be said -

and nobody knows quite what to say.

For a time, we remembered that we cared for and respected each other, that we have strengths, even in the face of fear. There was a coming together.

We need to come together again, to defend ourselves against things like this. To defend our democracy, and our way of life.

And each other.



Vote for the Democrats in Nov. 2008.

Then keep demanding that they give us the change they promise.

Let our nation be once again renowned for welcoming the people of the world,
not with armor, but with open arms.

Don't fool yourself...the democrats would do the same thing if they were in the same position. :(

Nothing will happen until we throw the whole thing over and go to a more than 2 party system.

Flowers, hugs, and kisses for Vladimir Putin! A top-flight hospital room for a stricken dear friend and leader, Kim Jong-Il! The world will love us again!

Let's just call this what it is. It isn't just hard nosed politics. It's racism.

I'm ashamed of the party I used to identify with. The party of Lincoln. Yuh, right. Don't ya think he's spinning in his grave right about now...

And in the Free Press just yesterday:

Bad voter registrations from our good friends at ACORN (http://www.freep.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=2008809140383)

So can you really blame people (Republicans or otherwise) for challenging some voters?
