Fortunately, it's only roughly half of the voting public.

Yeah. Yeah. I know BO got slightly more than 1/2 the popular vote, but you have to take into account the ACORN fraud factor.

I figure there was a huge amount of fraud, so the numbers are quite skewed.

I refuse to take *credit* for this mess!

This country has lost its way. When schools won't teach American History EVERY year of the students life, how can the students know why they should value this country?

Most of them don't know why they vote, nor what the platform is of the person they are voting for.

I just hope that we will be able to keep things together for the country while people do some review on why this Country matters and what it is that makes it the Country people want to come to make it their home.

Opportunity. Such a little word. Such an immense meaning.

That really became evident with Katrina, New Orleans and Mississippi. Some people refuse to accept responsibility for themselves. Others find gold in taking care of them.
Mississippi was hit far worse than Louisiana but managed quite well. We hear about New Orleans all the time. That is because the gold is still flowing there.

A friend wrote me:
I would like to know -
How can 2 million blacks get into Washington DC in sub freezing temps in 1 day when 200,000 couldn't get out of New Orleans at 85 degrees with four days notice.
