    Coming to terms with my feelings. Long, sorry.

    I think you may not be giving the young, hispanic, females enough credit. Those that I know work really hard, are God fearing Christians, and love their jobs and America. As with any demographic, there will be a percentage of those called slackers, but less in Asians and the Hispanics that I've...

    Coming to terms with my feelings. Long, sorry.

    Could not have said it better myself. Good post. I doubt the younger will be subsidizing anything in our lives, but the rest is all good stuff.

    Conservative party being bred out of America?

    Join the club, they've been stealing my money forever and wasting it on stupid wars, oil company subsidies, Haliburton and their ilk. Might be nice to be able to allocate what money goes where, but we live in a democracy, and don't get to do that.

    Conservative party being bred out of America?

    Two good one Richter: So that's why the rep party is starting a new ballgame to reach the minorities, only because they're easy to manipulate? What does that say about everyone already on their side? I don't remember who said it, but he said, "government is a necessary evil; the reps focus...

    what passes for sanity if you are a catholic

    Very sad indeed. My argument in favor of allowing, even favoring, everyone to provide birth control is simple. We can stop things like you reference, and the merely making BC available does not mean anyone has to use it. Freedom of choice. No one is forcing birth control, or sterilization as...

    The real lesson - 2 billion in campaign bribes

    Would anyone be asking every month for drugs to kill cats or dogs? Making contraception available does not equate to forcing women to use it. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I am a supporter of capital punishment, but doesn't it strike...

    Unhappy with the rise of sociaism in America...

    Was wondering if the first post just went over their heads.

    Obama Plans To Disarm You

    Sounds like part deux of this one from a while back. Another freaky email. U.N. Arms Trade Treaty. Claim: A U.N. small arms treaty signed by the U.S. provides a “legal way around the 2nd Amendment.” FALSE http://www.snopes.com/politics/guns/untreaty.asp Of course, blame Snopes...

    Coming to terms with my feelings. Long, sorry.

    I've found that it takes time to analyze each charity to determine the value of each dollar given. Money towards research, medical primarily, seems to be the least likely to be consumed by the so called takers. You do have to be careful to see that there are not exorbitant administrative...

    Coming to terms with my feelings. Long, sorry.

    I have to disagree on this point. I've done well in my life, and feel that doing well by doing good is still something to live by. My rewards for success are not just financial, but family and friends as well. If you have to say No to someone in need, because you lack either compassion or...

    Coming to terms with my feelings. Long, sorry.

    I find myself agreeing with CO again. Nothing wrong with being reasonable, you can still express your opinions, just keep in mind that is what they are, opinions. I've said before that I think you're smarter than many on ET, so use that intelligence for good, not to win petty fights.

    fox news just cant help themselves.4 more years of disinformation.

    FWIW, and not trying to just beat the drum, my main new venture over here in Europe received some stacked up orders dating back about 30 days. This is for electronic devices, but may reflect some positive feelings going forward. With all the bad news about Europe, I'm hoping that my timing...

    Obama won in 8 of the 10 wealthiest counties

    Or, maybe that old saying about starting life as a Dem, going to Rep, then back to Dem when rich so that you can help others?

    "One of the Dumbest, Most Futile Elections in History"

    Chris Cristie runs as s 3rd party candidate maybe? Pick one of the Latino superstars as a running mate?

    What has the GOP come to?

    Exactly, why such disconnect understanding a democracy?

    What has the GOP come to?

    I'm sure that most here on ET won't have anything to worry about. When you aint' got nothin, you got nothin to lose. Bob Dylan I think.

    Know Thy Neighbor!

    Well, by that definition, then all should correct itself as white men become the minority. Or were you hoping for some sort of whiteman land somewhere? I just found your reference interesting, not reading any devils in it.

    The real lesson - 2 billion in campaign bribes

    And, I might add, that having someone Offer contraception does not mean that they are forcing their employees to take such. If anyone chooses to not take contraception, I don't see them having to do so. Seems pretty simple to me.

    The American Experiment Is Over

    Hopefully the right will listen to the Caption O, get over it and try to do something of value for America. Well, it Could Happen, couldn't it?
