Eventhough I did not support Obama in the election, I do support "ALL YA"LL" and the bless-ed opportunity that we can disagree and stay civil. I agree with a large part of your list for the R's defeat,,just as a safety measure,,,let's hold the current administration to the same goals and guidlines and have them answer the same question as listed...<br />Thanks, Glennglnrozhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12922837344762102334noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-447321916012029979.post-13954687692003004772012-11-10T05:30:27.350-06:002012-11-10T05:30:27.350-06:00Guess what?

I have people I really care about who were for Romney but we never talked about it. For my part I guess I didn't want to hear it and probably same for them.

Reagan just took the ball and ran with it).<br /><br />Selfishness, with any luck, is done for awhile, and the idea of community and cooperation (uh, the Big C words) should hopefully come back into style. But, it won't happen unless all of us keep the R House from digging in its heels again.

You know, the kind of thing mature, responsible adults sometimes do? <br /><br />Why, just today, Condy Rice was talking on CBS about what message was needed in order to to win the women/black/latino vote and keep the Republican party viable. Um. If survival of their party is their first priority, then their kind of country deserves to die.
