An Inalienable Right

What makes a right inalienable?

It is that it cannot be removed from Man, through legislation, threat or federal ukase.

The reduction cogito, ergo sum does not lose any of its robustness simply because a sociologist would attempt to condemn such an utterance. That is the horror of the elite: simply calling those with whom you disagree names doesn't deal with the over-riding issue; is that which is being uttered true or false?

An interesting conversation here in the comments section.

Our National Decline

Who will be responsible for ending this fiasco?

You and I. But, we can't do it sitting on our hands. Get outside this weekend. Talk to a neighbor. Ask them if they are happy with the current course of our country.

Their answer may surprise you.

Your Cheating Heart

"Your cheating heart
Will make you weep
You'll cry and cry
And try to sleep

"But sleep won't come
The whole night through
Your cheating heart
Will tell on you

"When tears come down
Like falling rain
You'll toss around
And call my name

"You'll walk the floor
The way I do
Your cheating heart
Will tell on you

"When tears come down
Like falling rain
You'll toss around
And call my name

"You're gonna walk the floor
The very way I do
Your cheating heart
Is gonna tell on you."

"WOO HOO"

"Life should not be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, chocolate in one hand, champagne in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming ''˜WOO HOO'' what a ride!"

Five Minutes Ago

Five minutes ago, no one had heard of Dan Benishek.

Now, you're going to be hearing a lot about and from Dan Benishek.

The reason?

Bart Stupak. The Democratic with a concience. Life is important Stupak. Hold it, I think I got a deal Stupak.

Dan Benishek is the man running to replace Congressman Bart Stupak. Five minutes ago, he had never thought to have an on-line donations page set up on his campaign's website. The latest word is--five minutes ago--that the campaign will have a contribution link set up shortly.

Five minutes ago, this website didn't exist.

If you want to learn more about Dan Benishek, got to his Facebook page.

Five minutes ago, Bart Stupak couldn't be beaten in his district.

But, that was five minutes ago.
