There's nothing quite as American than the Rule of LAW, whether it be State or Federal or local. We ALL get to have a Vote in it. Whether we like the outcome or not.
Somehow we all survived 8 years of Slick Willy and that doofus Algore. Ain't heard nor seen anything from that walking airhead for a long time and yet we survived that administration. I recall that under slick Willie my federal income tax deductions increased by twp grand a student I paid for while they were in college.
So they aren't totally useless. They can always be used as a bad example.
TODAY is MOTHER'S DAY. While yer wife is not yer mother, and most of our mother's have left this world and gone on to glory, honor HER today for being the great Mother she is and has been to YER children..
My middle age daughters still talk at length to their mother about all kinds of things and ask questions. That is a wonderful thing using her life experience to give some advice to our precious daughters.
Our wives are what give us the confidence to go about our business every day.
God bless our wives.
