I'm exhausted. Time to go to bed. Night all!

Personally he does, but he does not believe that the Government should have any say in the matter. Remember, he was a Constitutional Law professor for a number of years, and he does not believe that his personally held religious beliefs should be foisted upon the nation as a whole. It's going to be rather refreshing having someone this intelligent in office for a change.

For the record, McCain's speech was terrific. I was impressed at his grace in what had to have been a bitter blow. For this, my hat is off to him as well. I hope he makes good on it and his pledge to cross the aisle.

My dad's upset. He said, "Welcome to the USSA, kid!" and "Sadaam is now running our country!"

Aw.

I just grinned and replied, "Well, if you don't like it here, you're welcome to leave." ;)

That was what he said to me four years ago. He wasn't amused. :evil:

Just to put my own perspective in the mix...

Thank you, Oregon! $125,000,000 will improve aging animals spaces, update the animal hospital and improve our water system - saving 11 million gallons of water a year!

I now return you to Prop 8...

I have not felt such elation since Quisp defeated Quake in a landside back in the early 70s.

Finally. A guy who can speak. In calm, reassuring tones, no less. And with a soaring, optimism...and proper sentence structure.

In the immortal words of Steve Allen, this could be the start of something big.
Congratulations, America. You're not as dumb as you look on paper.

Wow. It's Wedneday morning and it looks like Prop-8 is still too close to call.

Here we differ. I voted for Quake because he did the real work of the universe while Quisp just flew around hopped up on the hippie lettuce.

Here, however, I am guardedly optimistic. Guarded optimism may not sound like much, but it is a far cry from what I might have been, which was completely distraught.

No, it's over (the Proposition, not the battle). Not technically, but effectively.
