Some other people have different religions and beliefs. That is why our founding fathers put in the “separation of church and state”. So everyone would be living under the same laws. I prefer that a woman makes her choice in consultation with her Dr. and her husband/boy friend/lover. But it is her decision and NOT a politicians! » Posted By Nirek On July 3, 2013 @ 4:12 pm Funk, no real secrete, just love and respect. » Posted By Nirek On July 3, 2013 @ 4:05 pm Forgive my bragging please, Sunday the 7th my wife and I will celebrate 40 years of marriage. I respect her for all her attributes and love her with all my heart. To put up with me she deserves a medal. She agrees with me on most politics especially the topic of women’s rights. I am a lucky man. I have her and a daughter and three granddaughters a grand son and my son too. Can’t ask for more. » Posted By Nirek On July 2, 2013 @ 6:26 pm Patsy, that was too funny and too true. If there was any bill that regulated penises they would have a fit. » Posted By Nirek On July 2, 2013 @ 6:20 pm AB, I have never been to Texas but I’m there in spirit supporting the women! » Posted By Nirek On July 2, 2013 @ 4:07 am AB, as a man I wish I could be there to support the women of Texas. If anything like that were to happen in Vermont I would be loud and strong in support of women. I am with you in spirit. » Posted By Nirek On July 1, 2013 @ 3:45 am Kalima, I believe that whistle blowers are good people. I fear that Snowden is after his 15 min. of fame. He has taken a cowards way. Hiding in countries that don’t have much love for America. If he were a true whistle blower he would stay here and argue his points. » Posted By Nirek On June 30, 2013 @ 4:30 pm Kalima, I challenge all the real men in Texas to support the women of Texas! The men should stand with the women and stop the idiocy! » Posted By Nirek On June 30, 2013 @ 4:23 pm KT, in the case of Rick and logic they do not belong in the same sentence without a NOT between them. He displays zero logic. What does display is idiocy and ignorance. » Posted By Nirek On June 29, 2013 @ 4:54 am KT, I guess they don’t believe, “We hold these truths to be self evident, that all men are created equal…” They seem to think that they are more equal than others. Of course they are wrong. » Posted By Nirek On June 27, 2013 @ 3:31 am AB, I sure hope Wendy goes to Washington from her present position. She has a lot of fortitude ! » Posted By Nirek On June 26, 2013 @ 11:18 am The SC finally got one right. Equal rights for all. Not just white straight Christians. Every American whether white, black, or brown, gay, straight, or transgender. We are all equal and should be able to enjoy all the same rights. Now my gay friends can get married and enjoy years together. My wife and I have enjoyed 40 years of marriage. My hope is that everyone can have as long a marriage as we have. » Posted By Nirek On June 26, 2013 @ 11:15 am I’m glad to see the filibuster used against the GOP. The GOP in Texas is bassackwards. Actually the entire GOP is. » Posted By Nirek On June 26, 2013 @ 4:08 am Good news! » Posted By Nirek On June 26, 2013 @ 4:06 am Kalima, I too tried to give him the benefit of doubt. His path is disconcerting at best. He has made some poor decisions in my opinion. Fleeing to countries that are not the most democratic is showing that he may well be doing this for the wrong reasons. » Posted By Nirek On June 25, 2013 @ 3:22 am Is there a good answer to the question,is Snowden a whistle blower or a traitor? On one hand he has told the truth about what our government is doing. On the other hand he is fleeing to countries that want information that could hurt America. Is he a patriot or a traitor? What he has done is open my eyes as to what our government does in the name of security. He also brings to the surface the fact that the CIA has too many contractors. There are way too many people with “top secrete” clearance. In a way I agree that the government is too big and cuts could be made , not only in defense but the CIA budget. I don’t know how much the CIA budget is or if there is a budget for them. There is a lot to ponder on this and other issues. » Posted By Nirek On June 23, 2013 @ 6:56 am A welcome addition. » Posted By Nirek On June 21, 2013 @ 3:37 am The little guy is out there right now. I love all my critters. » Posted By Nirek On June 20, 2013 @ 6:11 pm Last night about 9 PM I looked out the window and a young grey fox was licking bird seed off the floor. I got pictures of him and he was beautiful. So cute. I have a home made feeder on the rail for the birds and some of the seeds get knocked out by the birds and squirrels. I think I’ll put some on the porch for my little friend. » Posted By Nirek On June 20, 2013 @ 3:47 am Why do the GOP representatives hate the American people? They are voting to hurt every day Americans (regular) every day it seems. » Posted By Nirek On June 19, 2013 @ 4:57 pm On a completely different topic; I have lost any faith in insurance companies I ever had (not a lot to begin with). We have paid for long term care insurance for 22 years. Now they are reducing the amount of my insurance 20% each year after I turned 66. However the price I pay is going up. To me insurance is a ripoff! » Posted By Nirek On June 18, 2013 @ 8:51 am I honestly think it is a mistake to send arms to the area. » Posted By Nirek On June 17, 2013 @ 3:51 pm Glenn, I gave you a thumbs up on this as I feel the same way. Another question would be ; Would we be making any friends by getting involved in a civil war? » Posted By Nirek On June 17, 2013 @ 3:50 pm KT, I heard that a no fly zone would cost us 50 million dollars a day. We need to stay out of it. » Posted By Nirek On June 14, 2013 @ 5:39 pm In the news, another shooting in St. Louis. » Posted By Nirek On June 14, 2013 @ 3:33 am KT, I agree it is a bad idea to send arms to anyone. We should offer to host talks to mediate them and that is all we should do. » Posted By Nirek On June 13, 2013 @ 6:17 pm Yet another senseless shooting at a college. When will we get rid of these fools? Hope you don’t mind Nirek that I just added this link from our news widget. Kalima http://news.yahoo.com/police-gunman-killed-6-santa-monica-shootings-235020115.html » Posted By Nirek On June 7, 2013 @ 2:25 pm Yes, Patsy GREAT job! THINK SOLAR! » Posted By Nirek On June 7, 2013 @ 2:22 pm Sue, I also hate that term. I was drafted and served in Vietnam. That was not fighting for our freedom. In my case , it was fighting to survive. I would have gone to Canada but for my Dad being a career soldier and WWII and Korean War veteran. I could not disgrace him. We had no good reason to invade Vietnam, Iraq, or Afghanistan! In my opinion. » Posted By Nirek On June 7, 2013 @ 6:05 am Too funny! You’ll have the FBI all over you if you do that, Sue. » Posted By Nirek On June 6, 2013 @ 6:19 pmComments Posted By Nirek
To all of you , thanks from my heart.
I think the women of Texas should use their power in the bedroom against the “men” who want to “regulate” their bodies. Abstain or have a headache !
GOOD for her.
I like seeing all the critters on my land. I have 4.36 acres at the end of a dead end road. All kinds of animals show up. I’ve seen a bobcat, red and gray foxes, deer, turkeys, squirrels red and gray, lots of birds including a barred owl, and several woodchucks which help keep the grass cut.
It is my little slice of heaven.
We ought to encourage talks. We also need to keep hands off.
Let the UN do their thing.
I wonder when something will be done about people who shouldn’t have guns getting them?
Now we need to shut Vermont Yankee as well.
