But, look at his parents. George H.W. didn't have that "vision thing".

We were dead to W. He did not even have a vision of what our lives are like. We were the worker ants and our job was to fulfill his whims of the day. <BR/><BR/>I do hope a brighter day is coming.Galla Creekhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15765021266883258286noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26258540.post-31754188902103620202009-03-10T15:25:00.000-05:002009-03-10T15:25:00.000-05:00Maria: I believe he has lost a lot of listeners in...Maria: I believe he has lost a lot of listeners in the past few years. <BR/><BR/>Peggy: Limbaugh-tomy!

He meant what he said from the beginning...and he's staying focused on what he has to do....as painful as it is. While he's not bothered by Rush yapping his trap....the rest of us are as annoyed as hell.

Both have a positive, uplifting and optimistic vision of America’s potential and future. So far, I give him an “A” on his Presidential report card.

They just can't make up their mind, or more likely, can't find a way to attack Obama and make it stick.Kellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07275488871572628293noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26258540.post-26134135503990032252009-03-10T02:15:00.000-05:002009-03-10T02:15:00.000-05:00Why haven't we heard the term Limbaugh-tomy before...Why haven't we heard the term Limbaugh-tomy before now?

McCain said in 2002 that Rush Limbaugh was a clown and then said that he hoped he hadn't insulted any real clowns. I believe in free speech, but Rush is a pain in the patooty. I hope that someday his program will be so unpopular that it will be dropped.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26258540.post-11268881474898479332009-03-09T16:57:00.000-05:002009-03-09T16:57:00.000-05:00Dogwalkmusings: The whole plan seems brilliant to ...Dogwalkmusings: The whole plan seems brilliant to me.

Clinton balanced our budget and am sure Obama will pull us out of this mess. Thanks again for doing our home work.
