		<description>Sorry to zero in on a particular part of your post, but when i read something like the following:

&lt;blockquote&gt;If you really think about it, maybe there wouldnâ€™t be so many weirdows [sic] on the streets
if this nation wouldnâ€™t have gone astray from the Word&lt;/blockquote&gt;

It makes it slightly difficult for me to find credibility to your words. Who defines what a &quot;weirdow[sic]&quot; is? When i read that in this context, it seems to say something like &quot;since you don&#039;t believe like I do then you&#039;re a weirdo&quot;. 

It could be something lost in the translation though, so I&#039;ll leave it at that.

OK--i will make one other comment -- I really don&#039;t think the Ten Commandments were our laws here in America. That&#039;s another debate for someone else. This is possibly why i stray away from politics--the more i think about what i&#039;ve learned about the history of this country, the more depressed i potentially can get. :)</description>

		<description>ONE NATION, UNDER CANADA AND ABOVE MEXICO...
 
    The D. of Indipendance says, &quot;freedome of r.&quot; What those lawbending criminal aiders see is a group of word that dose not come with a norterized explination. Back in those days you either believed in god or followed Witch Craft. People that were found practicing Witch Craft were burned on a steak, while the rest of the New Nation chose one of 5 or 6 different forms of Christianity in which all believed in God and Jesus as our savior. The Holy Bible was the backbone to this country in which the Ten Comandments were our laws. Slowly, one year at a time, things chainge. The birth of Jesus became the day a fat bearded old man dressed in red velvit   
found a way to squeez down a brick chimeny. If you really think about it, maybe there wouldn&#039;t be so many weirdows on the streets 
if this nation wouldn&#039;t have gone astray from the Word. As i see it from my prespective, we&#039;re doomed &amp; there is no president, not even the great Oral Sex resipicant, that can stop the dominoes from colapsing.

                  Thank you for reading, 
                                                      Pete

		<description>Yes, nice article. Thanks for the link. Glenn also has a great response for the election: http://gkaiser.blogspot.com/2004_11_01_gkaiser_archive.html#109953408167114276

Win or lose, the election doesn&#039;t change our basic responsibilities or opportunities.</description>
