This is what Thanksgiving Day is about. I am not very politically correct in calling Indians such....but maybe I have a little entitlement, as my grandfather was born and raised on a Seminole Indian Reservation. Didn't offend him, doesn't offend me. Man is by nature selfish and prideful and self-centered. There will always be divisions, there will ...

It teaches us love, forgiveness, mercy. Truth is Truth, no matter what a church says, no matter what a religion says.

These people aren't interested in helping the economy...they are interested in power and control, and more power and control. They aren't interested in freedom or individual choice.

Kirk, you must be getting all your news at MSNBC ... From Rasmussen:

The president is also suffering from the public’s unhappiness with the health care reform plan he has proposed with congressional Democrats. Forty-two percent (42%) now favor the plan, but 54% oppose it. These numbers have been roughly the same for weeks.

Seventy-two percent (72%) of voters nationwide say passage of the legislation could lead companies to drop private health insurance coverage for their employees which would then force them into a government-run “public option” insurance plan. But voters are evenly divided over whether passage of the health care measure will actually force them to change their existing health care coverage. Still, repeated surveys show that most Americans are very happy with the coverage they have and don’t want to change it. ... Read More

Eighty-five percent (85%) of voters are insistent that anyone seeking government services should have to prove that they are legally allowed to be in this country. Whether illegal immigrants will be able to get health care assistance under the president’s plan has been a highly charged element of the debate.

No, we shouldn't be backing him. He was trying to upsurp honduran laws. Trying to make it a dictatorship. And has sour grapes, now that he has been ousted.

Bart Gordon does not represent the voters of Rutherford County. He plays one way at home in his district and when he is in Washington he is a Obamatron. He is going to get a big surprise in the 2010 election. Oh he votes pretty much lock step with the progressives (liberals).
