It may not be completely unique, but this story is uplifting and inspiring for every individual who can tell it and for everybody who is blessed enough to be listening. So many born and raised here take so much for granted... I completely agree with your frustrations and incredulity over minority support for democrats. Makes no sense.<BR/><BR/>Pic Pic- Thanks for that, even if folks assume you are just another one of my log in names :) I think I bragged enough (not).DaBladehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16160781062081889980noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3479178080500206440.post-63064661710247974442009-02-15T10:55:00.000-05:002009-02-15T10:55:00.000-05:00Blade, You failed to mention the most exciting par...Blade, You failed to mention the most exciting part of your son attending ND.

Millions have done this with dreams of reaching this GREAT land of the FREE.<BR/><BR/>I love America and her founding fathers. My eyes well up with tears whenever I read the Declaration of Independence. Our founding fathers KNEW what they were in for when they signed it. <BR/><BR/>Whenever I think of the Vietnamese experience, I get upset with some of my own relatives. Many of them, even after years of hardship in Vietnam, suffering under communist rule and imprisonment, have abandoned their principles once they became Americans. Many of my relatives vote liberal democrats. Go figure. <BR/><BR/>It is as mind-bloggling to me as Jews, blacks, and hispanics voting for liberal democrats, when you examine closely how blacks and hispanics are generally more pro-life, pro-family, pro-traditional marriage, and religious than whites or asians, and how Jews simply have nothing in common with liberals.<BR/><BR/>It was Republicans who ordered blacks protected in the Civil Rights movement. It was liberal democrats that protested against the Vietnam war, a war that should have been won easily in a week. It is always the strong-defense, carry a big stick, conservative Republican that supports and protects Israel.<BR/><BR/>WHERE is the disconnect???<BR/><BR/>An insightful article by Star Parker:<BR/>http://www.urbancure.org/article.asp?idCategory=3&idsub=1&id=3133&t=The+awkward+co%2Ddependence+of+blacks+and+liberal+DemocratsAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3479178080500206440.post-12113923948300013362009-02-13T11:06:00.000-05:002009-02-13T11:06:00.000-05:00Angel- Lots of folks walking around with their wir...Angel- Lots of folks walking around with their wires crossed for sure.

No such pleasure for 08.<BR/><BR/>Here is a wonderful Catholic book that has Notre-Dame in the story: Pierced by a Sword<BR/><BR/>http://www.catholicity.com/novels/<BR/><BR/>You can send for one copy for free.<BR/><BR/>Cube: You are right regarding secularism in Catholic schools. It is because many who go there are not even catholic. I went to the March for Life January. On the bus was a student from the local catholic school who was FOR Obama, defending him by saying that BHO is against abortion personally, but he wants people to have a choice, so abortion should be legal. This boy said he was not catholic.<BR/><BR/>I got him to think a bit, though. I told him to replace the word "abortion":<BR/><BR/>BHO is against "cheating and stealing" personally, but he wants people to have a choice, so "cheating and stealing" should be legal.<BR/><BR/>BHO is against "bearing false witness" personally, but he wants people to have a choice, so "bearing false witness" should be legal.<BR/><BR/>BHO is against "murder" personally, but he wants people to have a choice, so "murder" should be legal.<BR/><BR/>He was just a boy regurgitating what he heard from his family. Just sad. <BR/><BR/>Where did my America go? What is left for my children?

Stand down *snicker*. <BR/><BR/>My wife and I decided long ago that we could only raise our own children, and we are doing the best we can. I think we are doing OK so far. The oldest boy is a second year student at Notre Dame with a 3.9 gpa (down a tenth of a point from HS, but he must be sowing some oats:). His choir just sang at Mass in the Basilica of the Sacred Heart. The other two are in Catholic high and junior high and we couldn't be prouder. Sounds like we have a lot in common, especially our great kids!DaBladehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16160781062081889980noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3479178080500206440.post-56361206061819566362009-02-12T21:19:00.000-05:002009-02-12T21:19:00.000-05:00Angel: My youngest is in a Catholic high school wh...Angel: My youngest is in a Catholic high school which is rife with liberals, including the science teachers who are Al Gore globalwarming/climate change adherents. <BR/><BR/>My eldest is in college which is rife with liberals as well. <BR/><BR/>Luckily, we taught our girls critical thinking skills and they are able to discern good information from the BS they hear every day from every direction.<BR/><BR/>It's not easy bringing up children in today's environment.cubehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13788126579896276199noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3479178080500206440.post-54042364581917493122009-02-12T11:44:00.000-05:002009-02-12T11:44:00.000-05:00Colleges, too, are disgustingly pro-death and sick...Colleges, too, are disgustingly pro-death and sickeningly liberal. <BR/><BR/>My oldest is lucky at the USNA, where about 90% of the people there, professors and students alike, are fairly patriotic and conservative. I have to tell you a funny story. On election night, after McCain conceded, the mids at USNA played the Russian national anthem and began calling each other comrades. It was so bad for a couple of days that their Commandant issued a statement telling them all to stand down.<BR/><BR/>My second child is not so fortunate in a secular college. But she is now well-formed enough to discern. She discusses with me all the time about how professors are very eager to impart their own liberal beliefs. During the last election, every single professor and student in her classes claimed that they were voting Obama for change.<BR/><BR/>It is sad so many Americans are so ill-informed and ill-educated. Even my younger children know that "building" infrastructure is "spending", NOT producing. Heck, they learn that from a simple game like Age of Empire. They know you can only build so much until your resources run out. Yet many Americans nod their heads up and down at the promise of "jobs", not even seeing that all we are doing is letting government own us more and more.<BR/><BR/>Maybe it is just hard for many American people to see it. I come from a communist country and it is easy for me to distrust government at all levels. It must be hard for people who grow up knowing only that government should take care of them to think differently.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3479178080500206440.post-28280212918500903312009-02-12T00:19:00.000-05:002009-02-12T00:19:00.000-05:00Too many public school teachers are using their Li...Too many public school teachers are using their Lib leanings as the agenda for crafting their lesson plans.
