trkyhntr: What's funny is that I had always considered myself somewhat of a conservative until I landed here!
I must say I am sick and tired of the Bill Clinton issue. He made a mistake, not unlike many of us here. Don't you think he, his wife and lovely daughter have had to pay the price for that mistake? I do. Let it go for goodness sake!
I happen to trust our government, even though I might not always agree with them. I am thankful for that.
Lastly...I have never ever laid a hand on any of my children, and I believe you would be hard pressed to find 5 more thoughtful, concerned, loving, and caring young ladies. Do they make mistakes..certainly. I've taught them to admit their mistakes and take responsibility for them. It's all part of the learning process.

A great post provides a beacon of light, supported by logic, and built on a foundation of fact. You wrote a great post.

Thank-you for sharing your thoughts.

Cheers, PW.

P.S. I enjoyed viewing the pictures taken during your visit to Africa. I especially liked the animal with the giant corkscrews growing out of its head.

WASHINGTON (CNN) -- The FBI has recovered a valuable copy of the Bill of Rights that had been missing for 138 years, bureau sources said Wednesday.

The document, one of 14 copies of the Bill of Rights commissioned by President George Washington, is worth an estimated $30 million, the FBI said.

It was stolen from the North Carolina Statehouse by a Union soldier during the Civil War, officials said. "A carpetbagger took it in 1865," said one official. "It's really priceless."

The document was recovered by the FBI in Philadelphia on Tuesday in an undercover operation when an individual attempted to sell it, officials said. The copy is believed to have been in North Carolina in recent years, but officials were uncertain where it had been for most of the past 138 years.

The Bill of Rights is the first 10 amendments to the Constitution. It was demanded by many states as a condition to ratifying the Constitution. They were ratified in 1791.
