I agree with you JEJ in the post before the one about Rush. I am one of people of whom you speak. Not left, not right, but discouraged about the direction of the counrty. Sad about the lies we are told on a daily basis. I didn't like the direction Bush took us (but I liked it better then the direction we are going now) and I hate the spending spree we are on now. I want our country and its people to prosper. It is very sad to watch the freedoms we have eroding. It is a nightmare to see the complacency of many. I do see some coming to life but not enough at this point to change course. However, elections are still a way away. That said, who do you vote for? No matter who is there it seems to be more of the same bs. No wonder the people of America are throwing up their hands and tuning out of the political retoric they hear. who can blame them. When political junkies like me get fed up, it is over the top with the lies an double talk. Reply...
Rush is much smarter than pelosi, and is not flying around on the taxpayer money. Really if you lisened to rush for two weeks you may change your mind because the things you are against are the same things he is against. Don't be a rush hater because you think he is overweight, that would be a liberal resonse. Reply...
If everyone here is so stupid 37sfb, why don't you explain to us how this record setting unemployment rate is a GOOD thing and how good a job Hussein is doing at producing all those jobs he promised. Do you think you can do that 37sfb?? Do you think you can actually stay on subject and explain just one of your commits?? Do you think you can say focused for more than 10 seconds?? Is this too difficult for you??  Reply...
If you go talk to a lawyer, there may be ways to go back and eliminate or void any conviction on your record..It can't cost you anything just to talk to him..and if you find a young lawyer, just starting out, he may want to carve a notch in his six gun handle... and take the case pretty cheap. Give it a try, it can't hurt. Reply...
And for the record, Rush is an overweight, over opinionated dork. He is truely a discredit to all americans. Same as Nacy Pelosi. They are both crackpots, I cant believe anyone in their right mind would listen to either of the dimwits. Reply...
Yes Rye but what about all of us who are neither demo or repub. those of us that fit neither the left nor the right and just want the constitution, freedom and no communism? We dont fall into any of your stereotypes, we just want america back. We are not extremist, we are the ones willing to help anyone in need of our own free will. We do not believe in putting the "climate" before the welfare of our people, we believe in equality, as in equality earned not given by whining about being inferior. Where does that leave us? I do hope you realize there are more of us out there then just me. We are the ones who are completely fed up with our crooked leaders and unfairness to everyone. I will tell you where it leaves us, rising and doing so fast. We are sick of the bush bs, we are tired of the obama blunders, we are ready to take back our country and start living like our forfathers fought for us to live, free.
And once again Rye, thank you for your posts, I do get a lot of insight from them. I enjoy reading your opinions. Reply...

Well lots of the kids who go to those places that are not there under DJS control leave awafully quickly. Home On The Range gets kids from all over the country. Lots of them aren't there for problems, either they are orphans or the state doesn't have foster homes and so forth. Like we have all said try going else where and talk to a recruiter. Reply...
