Inspirational Quotes

A mother is not a person to lean on, but a person to make leaning unnecessary. - Dorothy Canfield Fisher

Mothers hold their children's hands for a short while, but their hearts forever. - Anonymous

A mother understands what a child does not say. - Anonymous

A mother is the truest friend we have, when trials heavy and sudden, fall upon us; when adversity takes the place of prosperity; when friends who rejoice with us in our sunshine desert us; when trouble thickens around us, still will she cling to us, and endeavor by her kind precepts and counsels to dissipate the clouds of darkness, and cause peace to return to our hearts. - Washington Irving

The Social Poets: Funny Osama Bin Laden Posts, 1 Year Anniversary Dead

The Social Poets: Funny Osama Bin Laden Posts, 1 Year Anniversary Dead: From Denny: Today President Obama took yet another victory lap while in Afghanistan, spiking the proverbial football and crowing about how he "got" America's Number One Terrorist Boogeyman a year ago, Osama bin Laden. Never mind the rest of us find this political boasting in an election year as really bad form, including Arianna Huffington.

Actually, it was the Navy Seals that killed the fool. Why would a president that regularly has a hard time making any decisions go around the world crowing about how he made one decision to kill one terrorist in the comfort of the White House and well protected by thousands of bodyguards from thousands of miles away from the gore? Come on; it has the look of election year desperation and is a bit pathetic. It looks like the presidential version of an Elmo Happy Dance.

But hey, it's standard election year politics for both parties. It's their job to live in a fantasy world about what is a great idea for focusing the public on all their accomplishments while in office. The objective is to distract away from what is making the public angry about the candidate's performance so the voters will forget and vote for him any way. Yeah, Life in America. Does it get any better?
