Have a Great Day Tomorrow!

My Canadian friends celebrated their Thanksgiving about seven weeks ago. ;-)

Happy Turkey Day, America!

President Bush à la Homer Simpson

Sorry, I couldn't help myself. :-)

Here's a Great Editorial from the Washington Post

Tailor the Patriot Act

Thank God, Somebody is Paying Attention

Well, I'm a patriot, but this was a bad bill.

And for the citizens of this country, it is bad law... since it infringes upon our founding fathers' wishes and words (See the THE UNITED STATES CONSTITUTION and THE BILL OF RIGHTS, Amendments 1-10 of the Constitution.)

We definitely need to see more debate on this!

PATRIOT ACT UPDATE from Daily Kos

(Feingold is the one Senator who read the bill before our Congress passed it into law four years ago.)

Goodbye, Bill of Rights.

I wonder how my father would have felt about this. After all, he lost his innocence and his youth fighting for this country in WWII. How would he feel today knowing they've ripped up our Constitution and our Bill of Rights.

Nothing will happen, huh?

A Government, any government, WILL repress its citizens if it is allowed to do so. Study history!

They promised they would let most provisions sunset this December... after introducing it right after 9/11. "Trust us," they said.

Well, can they imagine how we, the little people, feel?

Probably not.

I had always felt so fortunate that we had so many protections... that our civil liberties were protected in this country.

Is anyone paying attention... anyone at all?


Congress Nears Deal to Renew Antiterror Law

CAN'T SLEEP. CAN'T EAT. WORRIED

I cannot seem to shake this malaise that has me in its grip, but I must.

Am so depressed about N.O. and Gulf Coast, and about this war in Iraq -- sure is putting me in mind of Vietnam, and I ought to know.

It's just a very stressful, depressing time.

Another thing. December 7th is approaching... will be the 27th anniversary of Daddy's death. I can't believe it's been so many years.

I miss my Daddy.

I Don't Have the Heart

No, I still don't have the heart to post anything, but my husband does HERE.
