Man ,Scott, chill. I reread my post. I did not come out swinging against you but at the writer of the artlicle who put down those who serve, which from your last post includes you. Thank you for your service. I too have spent and continue to devote my life in His service. That writer was putting down people who were trying to make a difference in the lives of those who have been largely abandoned by our governent. How can we tear down those who like ourselves work for good? I do admit I was relating to you from my experience of a previous anti-Obam post of yours, which, like that writer,  was unfairly slanted and dripping with cynicism and sarcasm. I still see no response to my original post but rather an attack on the me, which completely mirrors Republican tactics. Mccain's mgr himself said they would not be running on the issues but on the attack. They can't run on issues.  They got no game. Labeling themselves mavericks is a joke and an obvious ploy. The  lies they continue to tell are well documented. I would be embarrassed if this was the candidate I was backing. The words out of their mouths are not even spin or exageration anymore, but outright lies. Did you see the latest Palin Youtube church preaching? You really want that as president?

So my apologies Sir, I did not mean to offend. I thank you for the service to our country and ackowledge you for your continued service for those in need. I hope we can simply ackowledge our differences, treat each other with respect, and just try to get along as well as possible.
