Thanks for clarifying
I asked that in my post too...that's the way it should be.
Thanks for clarifying that.

I have a feeling you might be right regarding the payback.  I think they just wanted to take a swipe at the poster, rather than the post, not realizing that the joke is on them.


Thanks for clarifying. However,
I meant to direct my statement about the lady who accused Bush of rape and then allegedly committed suicide. This is fishy to say the least. In any other case, who would be the prime suspect of a suicide victim by gunshot who pressed charges against the perpetrator? Though I'm not arguing that Bush was involved. I'm just wondering how can the same people who believe Clinton either killed, raped or sexually harrased everyone he came in contact with could dismiss claims against Bush so easily, but I undersand that you are not in this bunch so to that end we can conversate about BUSH who the OP was about.


Let me take one shot at clarifying...

what I am talking about regarding illegal immigration, and what I view this country to be.  I do not now, nor have I ever said one word about wanting a "pure race."  I have said over and over, America is a country of immigrants.  A country of immigrants coming here who wanted change from their native countries.  Immigrants who became UNITED under one flag, one creed, one constitution, one set of laws.  The UNITED States of America.  The thread that bound us all together...Americans.  And the trend is away from that now.  Illegal immigrants want to come here and change America to Mexican America...or Muslim America...or, or, or.  To change what we are, the ideals we were founded on.  In my mind, if you make a conscious decision to leave your own country and come to this one seeking to change your citizenship, then you embrace this country, her laws, her ideals, etc.  That does not mean a person cannot be proud of individual heritage.  I am proud of my Irish, Native American, Swedish ancestry and can some of it back to the 15th century.  But I am not a Native Swedish Irish American.  I am an American with a mixed heritage, and I am an American first, and I don't frankly see anything wrong with that.  It is in that that we used to be UNITED and is what made us strong.  If we start to separate we might as well set up borders and call part of us Native America, part of us Africa America, part of us Mexico America....because we are not united anymore.  I even had the word "secession" thrown at me, which is ridiculous on the face of it.  I never said such a thing nor would I sanction such a thing, because I believe in the UNITED States of America.


At any rate, to set the record straight:  I do not ascribe to a "pure" race.  I object vehemently to illegal immigration.  I support legal immigration to the hilt.  However, I do believe that immigrants are making a choice when they leave their native land and come here...a choice to become an American, and if that is not their choice, then they need to stay in their country of origin and try to make it more America-like...it seems like that is what they REALLY want.


I love my country, I love her mixed heritage and I love my own mixed heritage.   I really, really don't see what the problem is with that. Black, white, red, yellow, polka-dotted or chartreuse....we are all Americans, and that should be the thread that binds us together.  Therein lies our strength. 


I will now officially stop beating this poor dead horse.  :)   Have a good day, my fellow Americans, every last one of you.  :)


TY for clarifying that. I would hate to see anyone
And Palin most likely isn't gay, c'mon. Could be bi, I suppose, stranger things have happened, but she at least liked male company on 5 occasions. LOL
Ohhh, thank you for clarifying

I don't give a $hit if they were sacrificing bullocks and painting pentagrams on their bedroom walls.
