this is just general information.

since I am going to do this blog. I welcome all who wish to post here. I am not planning on black listing anyone. Including the ones who have black listed me. All I ask is try to keep it respectful.

Sorry if this isn't long enough. I have trouble keeping my mind on one subject at a time.

So get on with blogging and quit trying to explain yourself, making excuses for what others' consider your weaknesses and otherwise going on and on and on and on about how you think you are treated here.  We all have our motivations to blog and you have yours.   Go with whatever your motivation is and let the chips fall where they may.

Of course, if your motivation to blog was to explain yourself, make excuses for what others' consider your weaknesses and otherwise go on and on and on and on about how you think you are treated here.  If that is the case, you're doing a great job! ;~D

ParaTed is right......Go for it Danielost.....everyone of us had a first blog....I 'm not computer savvy and I remember being on pins and needles posting my first blog too......I've discovered it amounts to simply saying what you have to say....idon[t be concerned about the length. Some of the best blogs have been only a few sentences or one-question!

The best advice I can come up with for you is, make your blog as personal as you want, but never take comments personal.

OK I think we all need to take a step back and relax.

I just brought my father home from the hospital due to a heart attack on Monday.


I then went out to pay some bills.


When I got back they decided to have a fight.


My father had just gotten done chewing me out because I don't like to spend a lot of time at the store because it hurts my ankles.

Tomorrow they will both be back attacking me as always.

It is usually over crap.

If they took a step back and looked at it they would see how stupid it all is.

This seems to be going on in this country right now too. Probable has for at least 40 years and getting worse.

We want to blame the other guy for our problems. As an example I give you Gene. Instead of putting the blame where it belongs he blames Bush for everything that goes wrong.


The Democrats blame Bush for the Katrina crap. But I ask you when did it become the Presidents job to tell a Governor or a Mayor how bad something coming at them is. Don't they have eyes and ears. Aren't they supposed to be leaders. Isn't it their job to make sure the people in their state or city are safe.


I think that Bush made a mistake in this war. In the operation of the war. Not in going to war. I would have done the same thing. However I would have taken advice from Patton and not pay for the same property twice or in this case about 10 times.


The person to blame for the attack on 9/11 is Ben laden(spch) not Bush or Clinton.

You raise some important points as far as people getting along with each other and especially taking responsibility and duty for their own actions in their respective positions in life.

The person to blame for the attack on 9/11 is Ben laden(spch) not Bush or Clinton.


I agree however, we know now that Clinton had several good chances to take Bin Laden out of the picture and I wonder if he had, would 9/11 have ever occurred? This is something we'll most probably never know.

Second, what we have to understand is that when a new president comes into office, he automatically inherits whatever good and bad is going on....it's not like he starts with a neutral slate.

That's where the talk of "change" comes into play....will we have good change direction or bad change direction? Obama is big on talk of change, but it's only been in generalities. No one yet that I know of during interviews or in the debates has really asked specifics. Same with Hillary.

We are going to discover no matter who the two candidates turn out to be....the differences in substanstinitive issues between them and the "change" they are portending is going to be as far apart as the east is from the west.

Yes I know. A new president is living off of the last or last two presidents policies for the first term. Which is why I keep reminding Gene that Clinton got his economy from Reagan since Bush 1 didn't do much.

Neither

Since that operation took at least two years to plan and execute. I would yes.
