8-Year-Old Boy Accused of Killing Father Faces Court Today

The rare country that can even execute children. Arizona law allows them to even consider an eight (8) year old as an adult. Reports are that the father checked with his priest to see if he thought it was a good idea to teach the boy about guns so that he “wouldn’t be afraid” Perhaps the boy was also forced to hunt which often traumatizes children. At any rate, we’ll find out soon and society will again be “surprised” at the reason. Let’s hope they can get him the help he’ll need to survive.

A White House Tour for the Obamas

I’m probably in the minority however, except for the oval office (at times) , grand hallways. stairways, music room and dining room, the other rooms have always seemed too colorful. The deep jewel tones just seem too dark.

Who is Rahm Emanuel?

An excellent choice. Being a “West Wing” fan, reports are that he was the model for the Josh Lyman character. That should add a little interest to the mix.

What's in Store for the Obama Family in the White House

Ms. Obama appears to have a common sense parenting style that will serve and protect her children well. Hopefully they’ll have minimal exposure to the public over the presidents term. The Secret Service detail will be difficult enough for two young girls. It is truly an honor however, it is their only childhood.

Sarah Palin a 'Wasilla Hillbilly,' Didn't Know Africa a Continent? Fox News Begins Regurgitating Rumors From Camp McCain (Video)

This happens when the path has been forged only because people “like” you You can’t learn common sense… especially during a political campaign. 1. She appears to have gone into politics like it was a popularity contest which in Alaska appears to be the case. 2. She selected a political career and didn’t do her homework on any topic outside of her immediate areas of interest. “Expert on energy” ??? 3. She appeared to allow her husband to co-govern with her. 4. She didn’t seem to even realize that she wasn’t prepared. Why ?? 5. She allowed her ego to exceed her common sense… why didn’t she question why the Republican party wanted her ? Then took offer anyway. 7. She didn’t appear to even utilize the coaching when it was offered. My concerns are always when a women attempts a position without the resume to document qualifications. As women, if we understand our own strengths how can we hold others accountable when we over reach and lose.

What will you miss the most about the presidential campaign? The least?

Let’s hope they fix the election voting process and go “green” by saving jet fuel and only vosit each state once or twice. I don’t need the personal visit. I won’t miss the “half-truths” and “innuendo’s” vaguely disguided as truths. The fear tactics and the same questions repeated over… and over… and over… by the press. Don’t they ever listen to other interviews. All campaigns use the standard “stump speech” far too frequently. Sorry… many of us watched the campaign via cable and the internet so it was far to often just boring. Two years is far too long for the process.

Julia Reed on the 'Grating Superority' and 'Absolute Smugness' of Obama Supporters

The Republican’s have all been talking about the re-evaluation and re-invention of their party… this would appear to confirm the necessity.

Whoopi Goldberg: We Have Finally Become Part of the Fabric of the United States of America

And let’s not forget the people that listened to their “better angels” and did a significant amount of soul searching this year. Many appeared to be answering their own question of “why not”. That leap of faith was a magnificant epiphany and I celebrate it.

Attention Conspiracy Theorists: Obama Birth Certificate Verified

Joan, I can identify. My husbands traditionally cancels my vote. This year is an exception… he’s joinimg me in supporting Obama/Biden 2008 See… there’s hope and it appears they can be retrained.

Barack Obama's Grandmother Madelyn Dunham Dies Before Election Day

If you “believe”… she has the best seat in the house with his Grandfather and Mother. If you don’t believe, she already knew her grandson’s ability since she was a major part of it… what a compliment.

Election Night Reader Forum

I’m sure she knew what he was capable of accomplishing and urged him to continue.

Attention Conspiracy Theorists: Obama Birth Certificate Verified

Beth, We can make anything complicated. Makes you really wonder about their motive… Any bets on whether they will try to challenge after the votes are counted tomorrow ? I don’t think so.

Attention Conspiracy Theorists: Obama Birth Certificate Verified

James, Thanks. Even prior to the 2000 act, in situations where only one parent is a United States citizen, they must have lived in the United States for at least five years at some point before the child’s birth as a full American citizen, and at least two of these five years must have occurred after the parent’s 14th birthday. We know that his grandparents and mother moved to Hawaii in 1960, after it became a state. His father was there until he graduated in 1962 and Senator Obama was born 8/4/61 and is reported and certified to have been born in Maui. They do keep trying to clarify it over and over. My job has been with International Students that frequently come to college just to have their baby in the United States. Often they never actually attend college, they have their doctors certify “disability” status and they stay in the country, without actually attending college until the baby is born. The baby is then a United States Citizen. The same issue of course with illegal aliens and childbirth. That will also need to be addressed someday.

Margo Howard and Roger Ebert Say to Erica Jong: Take a Vow of Silence, You’re no Norman Mailer

Now…now… Isn’t it always the battle cry of the “conservatives” that the liberals whine about everything being the fault of others ? It is a problem when you “can’t remember” how many doctors you’ve gone to already… or how many prescriptions you’ve already had filled. Perhaps - just a little bit - of the problem just might be yours ? This is the addicts cry of “entitlement”

Differences Between Cindy McCain, Michelle Obama on the Campaign Trail

Ms. McCain has always had someone to take care of her… regardless of what she might be able to do, she prefers to give orders and prefers to let others “serve”. Ms. Obama appears to have been taught to be more independent and take care of herself… thankfully !
