True story, seems to have happened last year, based on the dates the President has visited that church.

"...the usual political nastiness."

Which finally--thank God--the Pubbies appear to be engaging in...keep slingin' that MUD, GOP!!

FReegards...MUD

[iceskater]

Ditto that. It's about time the gloves came off....
This "new tone" is laudable but not realistic when the other side doesn't play by normal civilized standards of behavior.

[Gabz]

when the other side doesn't play by normal civilized standards of behavior.

The other side doesn't understand the concept......in fact those words are not included in their handbooks or dictionaries.

[atomicpossum]

Heck. No wonder the lefties hate him.

[Wphile]

PING!

[iceskater]

I suspect they would be hit by a bolt of lightening if they were to behave like normal civilized people.

[Cogadh na Sith]

I'll be dogged: thankfully it's not an Urban Legend!

Reponse from Lamar Alexander's office:

Thanks for writing regarding Ms. Lefler's e-mail. The e-mail reflects the personal experiences of one of our employees, and while we appreciate her enthusiasm, it should really have been sent from her personally and not from our office. Since this is not an official communication of our office, we really can't say anymore about it. We do appreciate your taking the time to get in touch with us.

Of course, Lamar still sounds like a vacillating weasel...

[GraniteStateConservative]

I know Laura. Lamar's whole staff is top notch.

[Mudboy Slim]

"time the gloves came off...." oughtta be the Bush Campaign Theme, imho...MUD

[iceskater]

Yeah, it works on so many levels. Heh, heh, heh.

[Gabz]

I suspect you are correct.............I've encountered many a 2 year old that behave more like normal civilized people than some of the other side - and we all know how well 2 years old behave ;) !!

[hoosiermama]

Thanks for the ping...I'd not seen this before.

[Republic]

You're welcome.

This story reveals so much about the character of our President. He is a man of deep conviction and gentle touch. Firm without sacrificing his sensitivity to others, resolute and able to stay the course.
