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

A little perspective.
Progress, you know you're headed in the right direction when the conservatives are yelling at your to stop.
A big win for the People Of Stupidity (POS). It really is amazing how ignorant millions of folks in this country are. This country is populated by great masses of knuckle-dragging know-nothings. Obama pulled us out the great pit Bush left us in, republicans obstructed every step of the way, and millions voted to put them back in power.
If only the socially perverted anti-equality reactionaries had even a cursory grasp of history, they'd finally come around and realize how foolish they've been, that the problem is within themselves, and that we're being doomed to repeat its cycle of futility....
Or... Or, they'd just smear the textbooks shut with flaming swirls of star-spangled donkey-poop and call it liberty. Yeah, the second one.
It's hard to have any kind of perspective the morning after. Thanks to all of the good folks who voted for Democratic candidates who lost to big money candidates. I feel sorry for us as a nation.
In my home town in northwest lower MI, the school millage passed, the 911 surtax passed but Republicans who will do absolutely nothing to help ordinary people got elected to the state legislature and our dreadful governor got re-elected. Hard to figure us Americans out.
And states that just returned or added GOP legislators to Congress also voted to increase the state minimum wages. Just what the idiots they elected do not want to do.
At this point I don't know if the two MI ballot issues about hunting wolves passed or failed. I voted against them. We invited wolves back to the state about 15 years ago and now people want to be able to kill them all. Maybe the real purpose in inviting them back was to kill them all 15 years later. I thought we invited them back because our forests are large enough to support them and were once their home too. Beaglemom
Beaglemom, first, thank you for wanting to keep the wolves around.
Second, what you are seeing is thousands of years of bad information that will be extremely difficult to clear up. Let's face it. The wolf has been the bogey man for as long as the two species have been around at the same time!
"They'll take my baby!" "The wolf ate my grandmother!" All that sort of crap has to be unlearned before any serious progress will occur.
Other than the election of Democrat Gary Peters to the US Senate, one of the few other pieces of good news for Michigan is that we voted down both wolf killing proposals. Of course, the group that wanted to protect the wolf population is being called the "front group" for the Michigan Humane Society. So now the Michigan Humane Society is an evil liberal organization! Well, the did it to the Girl Scouts, so why not! Beaglemom
I got my early holiday present. We kicked Tom Corbett to the curb. He screwed the schools, supported his "pals" at Penn State who were pedophiles or knew the pedophile (Sanduski) was working with boys and did nothing. and a long line of costly blunders for the taxpayers. He often joked about "blah" people at his private fund raisers and interoffice emails, then one of his daughters adopted a black child. Ding Ding Ding! Let's do a commercial with Tom Corbett and his new blahh grandchild! That'll shut them up.
Chez sums it up for me at TDB.

Yep! And their families probably disowned them, too! At one point, people were hanged for even thinking along those lines!
