I'm not going to get the operations until this summer after a late spring trip to Italy. I'm told by friends who have had them and by my optometrist that I will be surprised how much my vision will improve.

Kate, in a previous post you suggested that I talk about Obama's positives without focusing on Hillary's negatives. Let's see if it is possible to do so. Take for example the Philadelphia debate. When the moderator asked about the Weather Underground (a question from the Republicans), Hillary should not have rebutted what Obama said. Instead she drilled Obama further giving the country the impression that she was Hannity's mouthpiece also. shocking isn't it that someone who wants to be leader of the Democratic party would collude with the opposite party to drive dissensions in the Democratic party!!!??? Excuse me, and she wants the super delegates to sit around and applaud her actions? When she was asked if Obama was electable or not, I would expect a short answer. Instead she went on and on and beat around the bush (yes indeed even George Bush). Finally when George held her feet to the fire., I think she repeated her yes in a very condescending way and immediately went off on a tangent. when it came to Barack, he answered the question right away and then proceeded to elaborate. On the question of Iraq, she went on and on about pulling troops out within 90 days, a cheap street politics approach. When it came to Obama, he was forthright in saying "The President sets the mission, the Generals carry it out." Kate, we all watched the debate and what I stated are the facts. It is not difficult to decide who do we want as President. I do not have to criticize Hillary. I am keeping the broken kitchen sink in the garage for now and judging just from what transpired at the debate. There is no need to criticize Hillary nor is it necessary to extol Obama's qualities over here.
