It is much more powerful to seek Truth for one's self.  Seeing and hearing that others seem to have found it can be a motivation.  With me, I was drawn because of much error and bad judgment on my part. Confronting one's own errors and bad judgment is a very life altering situation.  Confronting the errors and bad judgment of others is usually hypocrisy.

That's been around for a while, but I don't think it's had much exposure. My theory is that most people who watch Michelle's "uh"-laden performance are driven to insanity, and hence fail to pass it on.

Since you and I are already insane, it doesn't affect us. Or the rest of APS.

Think of the phrase "home country" as having the same meaning as "Mother-/Father-land" -- that place from whence my people came.  Many of Irish decent still refer to the Old Country" as if they had left County Kerry just last week while in fact it's been 4 or more generations since anyone from their line has been there.  Same with other ethnics.

Not that I have seen a whole lot of it recently, but during the time the TV show "Roots" was airing there was a big push amongst the black community to define oneself as being from a line stretching back to this or that African country, or better yet to a specific tribe.  The best part of the whole African origins thing I saw was a few years ago when an immigrant friend of mine married off his daughter - he is first-generation from Ivory Coast, and the groom was third-generation but could prove all the intervening marriages were not only between only folks from Ivory Coast but from a specific tribe, thus a "pure" blood line.  It was important to them in the same way marrying another Catholic is important to Catholics.  I wonder if in another 2 generations they will be able to still claim that purity.

I have no idea where Michelle is from, and I seriously doubt if she does, either.  Barry has the chance to prove where he's from but has declined to do so.

stay safe.
If cowardly and dishonorable men sometimes shoot unarmed men with army pistols or guns, the evil must be prevented by the penitentiary and gallows, and not by a general deprivation of a constitutional privilege.

Hey you kids!! Get off my lawn!!!

They keep making this eternal vigilance thing harder and harder.  Protecting the 2nd amendment is like playing PACMAN - there's no pause button so you can go to the bathroom.

Strange.
Part of my family comes from Ireland, being that my grandfather is Irish.
I've never considered it to be my homeland, country of origin, or fatherland.
It sure seems like a pretty country, though.

Oh, no doubt. Still, a bone-head move from the First Lady of an obviously anti-American president, whose place of birth is controversial.
