Guest guest Posted August 31, 2008 Report Share Posted August 31, 2008 Let's be honest. We are oil dependant. We are most likely decades away from from being independant of oil. Sad, but true.

Guest guest Posted September 2, 2008 Report Share Posted September 2, 2008 I find it all a big soap opera. And who cares whether her daughter is having a baby out of wedlock? The important thing is what are her politics and what has she done. In my reading I find very little and I certainly don't agree with her politics It should not be a gender issue either.

Guest guest Posted September 2, 2008 Report Share Posted September 2, 2008 I agree with you M. -not sure why you posted it as a reply to mine though i was just saying I do think McCain knew her longer that they have suggested and from the interview Greta did it certainly came across as so.-but you are correct, it should be about politics not about personal, but I find growing up with staunch repubican parents - do not consider myself one at all, they (my parents) seem to be the most judgemetal and hipocrital republicans I know, yet calling themselves strict catholics, its baffles my mind.. how can you be both?? True Christians are supposed to be accepting of all people? Non judgemental - correct? yet repulicans seem to be non accepting of alot of things? just my experience growing up. although I love my parents they made me a terrific individual with high morals and values, I just accept people for what/who and they are.

Guest guest Posted September 2, 2008 Report Share Posted September 2, 2008 I grew up with excessively catholic Grandparents and father. They have always voted Democratic. Not all catholics are on the right wing of politics. They obviously are not fond of the " choice " issue, it makes them sad, but I grew up hearing that it was more catholic to help the poor and they believed the poor and the sick were the priority. The Catholics I know are extremely split on politics I have never known the majority to stick with the right wing repubs. However my Grandmother wanted Hillary pretty badly and is having a hard time adjusting.    Totally agree with Maurine too. We need to know Palin's politics and her decision making process that will effect our community. For me that includes a good environmental stance which I do not see with her in the least. Personal feelings and political party preference aside, we really should not be judging her parenting, I think by now we have to be pretty fed up with people judging us and our parenting over vaccine and biomedical decisions. - PS. My daughter cracked her head and needed stitches last Saturday right before leaving for vacation. As soon as I got to the hospital…. " Is she up to date in her immunizations??? "  She's my 3rd who only received 3 so I said no, I'm not going to the hospital with a cut on my daughter's head and leaving with a lifelong autoimmune condition. To my surprised after telling them my son regressed after vaccines and I would be refusing, they all agreed with me. I was shocked!  The Doctor even said, " Well I hope people still don't think your crazy for those choices, one of my nurses children regressed as well and the evidence is pilling up, you are doing the right thing "   Hello???? This was an emergency room Doc agreeing with me, obviously Offits followers are straying. I think we are making headway!!

Guest guest Posted September 2, 2008 Report Share Posted September 2, 2008 Surprisingly it was Lawrence General Hospital which is the closest to where I live. Lawrence is not the greatest of towns but since it was just stitches I decided heading into Boston to Children's wasn’t necessary. It was the 1st time I'd been there. She's doing well now. We decided derma glue would be sufficient and less tramatic for her, she just turned 5 and was scared. My husband told her she was incredibly brave and she responded " I wasn't brave, I was screaming my head off " LOL! It was just the typical beginning to a crazy vacation week. I didn't sleep because there were too many exits in the rental house and my son was in a mood to explore. I had to have eyes in the back of my head even while sleeping, LOL! What's not so funny are the two times he got outside for several seconds without me and the successful gluten exposure seeking which caused several absence seizures. I’m soooo glad to be home, the gluten is locked away and he can't get out of the house without a key. I've slept like I've been in a coma since I've been home.        From: EOHarm [mailto:EOHarm ] On Behalf Of Maurine Meleck Sent: Tuesday, September 02, 2008 12:00 PM To: EOHarm Subject: RE: Re: The State of Alaska speaks out on Palin wow. amazing hospital story . what hospital is that?

Guest guest Posted September 2, 2008 Report Share Posted September 2, 2008 That is awesome about the dr. because I generally lie when asked the question lol Primer who lives in Oceanside but is in Carlsbad Unified School District ~All truth passes through three stages. First, it is ridiculed. Second, it is violently opposed. Third, it is accepted as being self-evident. -- Arthur Schopenhauer ~Well-behaved women seldom make history~ Laurel Thatcher Ulrich RE: Re: The State of Alaska speaks out on Palin - PS. My daughter cracked her head and needed stitches last Saturday right before leaving for vacation. As soon as I got to the hospital…."Is she up to date in her immunizations? ??" She's my 3rd who only received 3 so I said no, I'm not going to the hospital with a cut on my daughter's head and leaving with a lifelong autoimmune condition. To my surprised after telling them my son regressed after vaccines and I would be refusing, they all agreed with me. I was shocked! The Doctor even said, "Well I hope people still don't think your crazy for those choices, one of my nurses children regressed as well and the evidence is pilling up, you are doing the right thing" Hello???? This was an emergency room Doc agreeing with me, obviously Offits followers are straying. I think we are making headway!! .. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
