To J. Carlton. Well Said!! We can also add the Uncontrolled welfare state pushing many into Dependency - the lack of will to protect our country from enemies foreign and domestic with the idea that amnesty is the only answer and terrorism can be handled as a police matter - and finally the amoral behavior of those in Congress is okay as long as it does not interfere with governance. -- Carol, Georgia 1
Amen! Amen! Except, Ms. Carol, let's change Uncontrolled welfare state to uncontrolled, immoral, disastrous warfare state. -- dick, Fort Worth 1
-- John, Brookings, OR

Truth Comes From Many Places. All you have to do is be open to it & look. -- SolidSonLight, San Francisco Bay Area
