Alright, everyone take a break, get your wig on straight and crank this up!! A flash back moment that will make you smile! Listen to Benard Edwards bending those strings on his Music Man Stingray! All of this four years of campaigning will soon be over...... It will all be over in about 10 days...... or will it be just beginning?? Where were you 30 years ago, in 1979??!!!

I introduced myself to this young man and told him if he needed anything to stop by and I would do what I can.
I applaud altruistic events. I differ from Hosspuller in that I believe sympathy, empathy and compassion are what will ultimately save us from ourselves.

I agree wholeheartedly! Free-ranging and open debate is what makes this country unique in the world. Nastiness just isn't conducive to intelligent conversation.

Gard
What Gard doesn't say is Sympathy, empathy and compassion should come from the gov't. HWBar's example is true generosity, Sympathy, empathy and compassion
Taken from a blog that says it more eloquently (with sources) than I could.

You're right, I never said that. I believe that everyone's morals should start at home, and not be dictated by committee. I guess government intervention isn't pervasive enough for you.
Sympathy, empathy and compassion are "found in the dictionary" and in our hearts, not in government.
