The United States holiday of called Thanksgiving began after the Civil War.
Then, President Lincoln established the holiday as a way to bring unity after a brutal war.
We should give thanks for all that we have in this country!
If you were to travel to Europe, one thing you would note is the lack of ability for the poor to pull themselves out of their situation. We are a very wealthy country and our poor are generally looked after and given a hand up by their wealthier brothers.
The United States gives out more aid to the poor than any other country.

PELOSI LAND
San Francisco school district has baned the JROTC program from it's public school system.
JROTC and the schools had a 90 year history together.
The school board stated that the units were nothing but recruiting tools for the military.
JROTC gives students a focus on discipline and aids in their educational and physical development. JROTC also gives them a feeling of a family that some of these students greatly need.
The San Francisco school board also derided the program for its anti-homosexual rules.

Iran
The Iranian government wants 60,000 more centrifuge machines to process uranium for "peaceful" purposes, yet it wants to wipe Israel off of the map.
Mmmm what to believe? I will give you two guess' and the second one is wrong!
Can anyone say WORLDWIDE WAR!!!!!
Iran has all of the oil and gas they could ever want along with hydro, wind and solar energy.
If it smells fishy then it must be fish.
40 degrees F at Santa Fe and SUNNY!!!

Save Bolton !!!
Mr. Bolton is America's answer to the "Mug Wumps" at the United Nations.
The man is straight spoken and defends our interests. If the United States Senate does not extend his tenure, we most likely will see idiots like Venezuela's Hugo Chavez taking swipes at our country and slowing down an already lethargic UN.
Playing nice has its place at a dinner party, but when the chips are down, I personally want a tough cookie like Mr. Bolton on my county's side!
By the way a "Mug Wump" is a fence sitter, his mug is on one side and his wump is on the other.

Sasha Cohen
Mr. Cohen was warned but did it anyway.
After a Saturday Night Live show in New York, Mr. Cohen donned his "Borak" character and tried it out on an average New Yorker.
Mr Cohen got his clock cleaned.

Viva Free Market!!!
A beautiful sunny day here at Santa Fe, New Mexico.
I read that Dr. Rice is using Vietnam as a turning screw towards Russia.
Vietnam is being courted with membership to the WTO as they are where China was 15 years ago in terms of a fledgling Marxist/Free Enterprise government with abundant cheap labor.
It seems that Russia is balking about extending the free market any further than it has, even to the point of placing restrictions on foreign investment of business'.
Russia's entering the WTO is being delayed via Mr. Putin and his minions in the Politburo.
The WTO evens the playing field with all participants, restricting the larger economies from wielding excessive power in trade over the smaller economies.
Countries, such as Ireland, which use the practices effectively thus raising their standard of living. One very seldom sees an Irish national leaving the country for higher wages and living conditions as they once did.
Mr. Putin, and his nationalist cronies are paying a price for their use of oil and gas as an economic weapon with the EU. Poland is blocking any favorable trade agreements with Moscow, until they get favorable investment laws passed and enforced (WTO again) within the gulag.
