I had a comment from an atheist and I want to say this now... yes, I know there are many atheists in this nation and that there were even atheists in the founding fathers. So why is it that y'all take offense to those of us who believe in God wishing you well? How is that hurtful to you?
Anon, yet again I find you shocking. If I have a child and decide not to teach him or her sex ed at age 5, that's none of your business. They started teaching us girls what a boy's peepee did when we were 12 and it messed a LOT of us up! So much for your theory that everyone should be involved in everyone ELSE'S kids' upbringing...
Not that I am saying anything new here, and I have said this before: The American Indians believed in God before the Christians came to America. So therefore, their beliefs are wrong too, am I correct? Where in ANY of the legalities does it say Christ? I have a feeling CFF is just a poor, misguided 13 year old like I was, once. He/she probably has a socialist teacher blabbering all this stuff and no one to guide him/her into TRUE self thought. It's a pity there are so many people like this around.
I proudly hale from a state still in the black, and I detest the idea of taking care of any state that isn't. They made their proverbial beds, they can lie in them.
By the way, on this amendments thing? Where exactly did it give the supreme court the right to mess with OUR constitution?
Haulinbus: I'm sure you already know this, but I want to share with those who don't. The ONLY reason SUVs get such "bad" gas mileage (I keep mine maintenced and get as good as most run-down green cars) is because it takes more gas to put out fewer emissions with these new engines. Yet, the new G2 tech in Freightliners is a fuel efficient DEISEL engine that burns clean. HMMMMMMM... Think Im going to go buy a rig tomorrow ;)
and when I asked why she said "Oh, I thought you said 'no'" I stared at her, with her obvious mental defect, and repeated slowly "I said YES PLEASE, not NO THANK YOU. Thanks a LOT." Her response was not "Oh, Im sorry, let me fix this" it was "Oh... well... uh... sorry?" as if I was the one in the wrong for asking for a back. Let it be known, I will not set foot in that God-forsaken hell hole again.
Sallie, I am by NO means, rich. My Momma and I struggle to make ends meet. And just so you know, I went to Ikea once (forgive me father for I have sinned...) and bought several items. I'd severely injured my elbow skating earlier that week and the girl asked me if I wanted a bag... I said "Yes, please" even after she informed me of the 5 cent charge. Carrying those items to my truck wasn't going to be easy with no bag, especially considering I was already banished to the end of the parking lot for driving an earth-haters vehicle. She didn't give me the bag...
Im with Dusty... I don't like shaking hands with greenies..... *shudder* Hooray for hand sanitizer and Dial Soap!!
I just had to share this... One day, while leaving my local grocery store, an environmental group had their stand outside the exit door and the guy caught my eye. I had tried not to make eye contact... I dont buy into their hype. I am young, but I still come from very old traditions, Indian and Druid Irish. Anyway, he started talking to me, trying to get me caught up in his lies and I said "no hun, I'm not an environmentalist, I'm a conservationist." It confounded him, he said "Huh??". I stopped, turned around, and said "I am not an en-vi-ron-men-ta-list. I am a con-ser-va-tion-ist." "Oh... well... uh... okay... um.... have a nice... day?" The middle aged woman loading her Rendesvouz nearby just bit her lips trying not to laugh, hearing a 20 something stand up against environmentalist wackos. I care about the earth enough to do what's right, not what's Gore.
Come to think of it, Dusty... you're RIGHT! There IS always SOME sort of massive snow, rain or other wierd weather. And the past few years Gore has screamed the loudest, three pool parties were canceled because it was too cold in MAY. It ought to be 102 in Texas in May!! IT'S GORE'S FAULT!! HE OWES ME POOL PARTIES!
