Morality is not determined by the church you attend nor the faith you embrace. It is determined by the quality of your character and the positive impact you have on those you meet along your journey
About the Cheney comments. The Huffpo has a story posted that says the GOP is telling Cheney to STOP giving interviews. He is 'bad' for the Party and their image.Nobody wanted to be seen/linked with Bush during the Election and now the GOP wants Cheney to go hide. Aren't they proud of their record over the last 8 years..? Who knew.
Sorry that you missed seeing it first hand, but glad you got it on video....your youth is hard on you... lol
I think it was stupid and is stupid to pick at him about his being "punch drunk" as Steve Kroft put it.
Pres. Obama called it Gallows humor.. I have always called it black humor... it's why a cop or ambulance attendant sometimes laughs at an accident site. You laugh to keep from crying sometimes.
I for one do not believe the auto industry should be bailed out. I think what it is experiencing right now is what the steel industry experienced in the '70s.
I lived near the huge steel plants that were on the southeast side of Chicago and in Gary, Indiana. My extended family and the families of friends worked in the steel mills, just like the way thousands of people are employed by the auto industry. I know many who immigrated from Poland just to work in the plants.
The plants are shut down now and have been for a long time. No one, I mean NO ONE, talked about bailing out anyone way back then.
Many men lost their jobs (and I say men because it was men who worked in the steel mills back in the day) but the families survived and became stronger. Sometimes you have to hit rock bottom in order to rise again.
yes, the 'compassion and honesty' our President exudes are SO refreshing; I still cannot fathom how anyone could be anything but supportive of his efforts and strides toward national health. What an unusually good human being... imagine, a thinker/listener in the WhiteHouse!

ReplyDeletethanks for that. I haven't liked all of the decisions he's made, but its a blessing to have someone who can think and articulate in power.
