7. Had a thought ...
Edited on Wed Dec-01-10 03:43 PM by N_E_1 for Tennis
maybe a bad one, but I'm kinda known for that.

I am just so pissed at how this administration has handled things.
Have been for awhile. Wrote an OP about it in May of this year.
Got a lot of hits, got blasted. OK, no problem. This is just to set my history.

There is a lot of talk on DU about Obama being one term.
There are calls for a Dem Presidential Primary next election.

Ain't this playing into the Repub's hand? Giving them what they want, helping them along?

I, for one, don't want to see a Repub in the WH in 2013, and I know most of you guys don't want that either.

Unless it's Sarah. That pick would lead to the complete destruction of the Republican Party.
Dumb Then Dumber. (George then Sarah). :sarcasm: If that need to be there, so be it.

I really can't say I'm ready for 6 more years of disappointment.

But here's a play ..... Don't except nothing, just a Dem Prez, just frustrating the Repubs.

I have been married for 38 years, have 3 kids, disappointment is nothing new.
No sarcasm smilie there.

I have a rock, yeah the earthly kind, been with me for 48 of my 58 years on this earth.
I found it on my tenth birthday during a scavenger hunt.

It sat at in a corner by my farmhouse, where I was raised, under an eave of the barn.
How long it was there before I discovered it is unknown.
Rain dripped on it every time it rained. It has a hole in it where the drips fell. A hole, right through it.

The rock measures maybe 5X6, 1.5 to 2 inches thick. Took a real long time for that water to go through.
One drip at a time. Molecule by molecule the minerals in that rock moved.

That rock is my inspiration today. I took it from it's long resting place when we sold the farm.
Reminds me - time does matter. Persistence pays off.
