He is still the man that God has put in charge of our country and because of that, he deserves the utmost respect. It is certainly not a job that just anyone can do.<br /> <br />It is amazing to me the ignorance and hatred that still resides in our world today. However, the bible does tell us, unfortunately, that it will only get worse before He arrives. <br /><br />I'm sorry you had to be the target of such hatred Misty.

I ...Sorry that you had such uglyness in your inbox! I hate that there are these types of people! And it goes both ways unfortunately. I am Mexican and I once met a girl who wanted me to give up all my white friends because they don't really care about me. She could care because she was black and also a minority she said. I told her I felt sad for her that she felt that she had to think of people that way. I see everyone the same, it's only the inside of people that are different. We can be better by accepting everyone. If that reader is back I say to you leave if you are not willing to be a friend because we all are friends here, no matter what color we are!

If one chooses to have an abortion - that is between them and their God. I do not get involved in all the political such and such with others. But to say that noone who supports the killing of unborn children is telling the truth? Well, I cannot govern everything that one's platforms contains. I try to pick who I think would be the better party. Both parties have issues that I do not agree with. However, what each individual person chooses to do with their freedom is their business. They will have to give in account for their actions as I will mine. Now, for the record..I do not like to discuss issues like this. To everyone else- have a blessed day and thank you.Six divided by two.....https://www.blogger.com/profile/00022092940105050911noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2889540365649940099.post-63404135961087202832010-01-21T14:22:54.748-06:002010-01-21T14:22:54.748-06:00Oh, Misty, I'm so sorry this happened to you. ...Oh, Misty, I'm so sorry this happened to you. I can not for the life of me understand why people leave comments like that on blogs like ours. I've seen it happen every now and again. Most of us in this huge circle of bloggers pretty much blog in the same genre. We're not editorializing world events, necessarily, or facilitating discussions of such. We're sharing our thoughts, feelings, talents, homes. <br /><br />If we post something that is not of the same mind-set of someone else, why should they lash out? No one is making them read your blog. If they don't agree with your ideals and passions, then click on the next link! <br /><br />As beautiful a place "our" blog world is most of the time, ignorance still filters through. It's a shame. But you know what . . . move on. I know it's hard reading such horrid words directed right to you, but don't waste any more precious energy on what that terrible person said. They are truly a sad, sad soul.CosmoGirl Carlahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00756698123430026996noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2889540365649940099.post-8409059446486011112010-01-21T13:41:12.033-06:002010-01-21T13:41:12.033-06:00dear girl

I smiled the whole time I was reading it. This post does not make me smile...it's makes me feel like crying. There is nothing I can say to excuse this person's ignorance. All I can say is that this is an ongoing battle and I want you for my general. Even though you don't say so, I know this has to hurt deeply. I truly am sorry and wish I had the right words to say to take away the hurt. <br />Debbie<br />P.S.

Cowardice comes blanketed not only in sheets but also in anonymous, poisonous comments. <br /><br />Girl, I only live 30 minutes from you and I am there if you need me! I was shocked when I moved to this part of the country twelve years ago...shocked to see the amount of racism which still hides in the woods here in East Texas. And I have been disgusted to see racism raise its ugly head all across the country since Obama has been elected.
