Well, one of my comments from last night's state of the union blog was published!!!! You can go online to our local newspaper's website and look under State of the Union Blog to read the comments in their entirety. The story in the paper was on the front page, and then continued on Page 6 - which is where my comments were. Below is the quote that they chose to publish in the paper:
"Everyone clapped and hooted and hollered about supporting our troops, and yet when Bush calls on them to fully fund our troops, half of them are sitting on their hands!! How they can do that is beyond me – our military should have everything they need. Period. "
My Dad would be proud that the military quote is what got in the paper - semper fi!!! It was an honor - a good speech by the President, although seeing some of the candidates that they panned to was quite disheartening. Praying that people turn out and vote according to what Scripture would want!!!

Great quote!! I wholeheartedly agree!
YES....great job Katy!! I was amused as well when half of the room stood...though I am not always agreeing with the President on everything I was (happy to hear that so many soldiers are coming home) so embarrassed that many of the democratic canadates (namely Hilary) sat like a 5 year old kid in time out with no expression...so disrespectful to our President and leader!
Well put Katy!!
