Hi...I'm a wife, mom and gramma...I'm definitely a Conservative..I'm thankful for Freerepublic and the opportunity to put forth my views, and also, to read the views of others. I also loved President Ronald Reagan, and I love President Bush! I'm a New York State resident, but cannot stomach Hillary Clinton, or her husband Bill...I can assure you, I for one, NEVER voted for her or him! We have three kids and five grandkids, going on six come the fall of '05! Our youngest who is 17, has ADHD and Dysgraphia, and high functioning autism ( Asperger's Syndrome)..this past fall was diagnosed with HSP Nephritis...but in spite of all his adversities is one great kid! My hubby is President and CEO of his own company, which he was able to start back in '85, thanks to this great country of ours, where you really can realize the American Dream!
