Something to think about

"Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction. We didn't pass it to our children in the bloodstream. It must be fought for, protected, and handed on for them to do the same, or one day we will spend our sunset years telling our children and our children's children what it was once like in the United States where men were free."

President Ronald Reagan

Yeah...I'm not blogging personal stuff today. I'm too upset/angry/flabbergasted/frustrated/irritated/appalled/shocked.

Seriously...I can't even pick a word for it. I know entire paragraphs would be gibberish coming out of my "mouth" today.

Good thing my Frugal World post is scheduled and didn't require me to write it today!

Let's pray.

I refuse to believe it's all downhill. I plan to raise up a son that will change the world...go into politics...become president..fill his cabinet with like minded old fashioned men like himself who believe in freedom.. a son who returns prayer to the White House and to the schools, a son who starts a revival sweeping the nation like revivals in England years ago..really why cant we raise up a generation like this? Dont give up people! Fight!

What does he mean by freedom though?
It's not enough to rant and rave about freedom without knowing what it truly is, otherwise it becomes little more than a political button to press when you want folks to wave some flags or something.
