One Final Word
My dear friend Michele slipped into eternity on Wednesday, February 1. She was a remarkable woman who left a legacy of faith, determination, and love. For three years she courageously battled the ovarian cancer that eventually robbed her of her life. A few days before she died, one of her docto

The rumors of my demise have been greatly exaggerated
My husband told me that there are rumors that I've died. I'm happy to report that I'm still very much alive. My cancer has gone to stage four but we are controlling it with chemo, the cancer numbers are currently in the normal range. I've stopped blogging to concentrate on my daughters and writing a

An update and a prayer request
Several people have asked about Michele's condition, and have promised to pray for her. On her behalf, I thank you for that. I spoke with her a little while ago, and she asked that I come here and tell you what's going on, and to ask you to pray for her. She isn't able to post here herself right

The peace that passes all understanding, pt. 1
I'm coming out of my normal hiding place to make a few comments.
The internet is a strange place. It is often a wonderful place, a helpful place, a unifying place. But it is also alienating, cold, and is the perfect medium in which to depersonalize others.
Through it, I have seen people reach out

Actually, the DNC took a shot at the fact that McCain, after admitting that he knows nothing about economics and after attacking Obama for his inexperience, chose a VP with even less experience and even less financial knowhow. Palin’s wink has become emblematic of her total incuriosity. Somehow, the GOP thought this entitled them to stir the racial pot. Stay classy.

Folks, the fact that McCain even won the primary was proof that America was already planning to vote for big change and vote for a Dem. McCain WAS a maverick, a guy who did not submit himself to the ruthless partisanship of the GOP. The obvious implication of his nomination is that Bush’s reckless destruction over the last 8 years has forced this country to the left. McCain barely qualifies as a conservative, and the fact that he spent the last year differentiating himself from Bush, hammering home his “across the aisle” rhetoric, and shamelessly picking Palin to steal Hillary voters just goes to show that liberalism was already on course for a win. No Republican could honestly defeat Obama on this turf. McCain only realized this reality around September when he decided to completely sell his soul to the GOP to employ the lowest form of Rovian-McCarthyist gutter politics we’ve yet seen. Unfortunately, the tides were already too strong, and the people have wised up. Slime will not hold back a tsunami. This is truly the left’s time.

This slime, however, does affect public perception after the election.
And to its purveyors I would say, America, love it or leave it. I’m sure the good Reformed Christians of the Transvaal could use their help, and South Africa will still accept immigrants, even white racists. Otherwise, shut up and do those things that make America better.

So you are committed to shutting down opposition to what you believe and forcing all to “do those things” that support your view of what makes America better.

Actually, Gillian, that would be racist pot…as in that’s what Obama’s pastor of twenty years is.
Yes…the spiritual shepherd that Obama sat under is relevant to his belief system.

I can see that the prospect of imminent defeat is really getting to you, MzEllen. Just remember, Obama isn’t nearly as bad as you want to believe he is.

here comes mzellen to once again criticize the black liberation theology and anyone who follows it as racist. sure, mzellen knows reverend wright better than anyone else based on some sound clips taken out of context that she heard (oh and rush limbaugh told her what to believe).
