2 things....

First a correction: Not all my itching is due to poison ivy. Some of it is due to chiggers. Sigh...But I am getting better.

Second: I spoke with a Congresswoman tonight. Representative Virginia Foxx, from North Carolina's 5th district called me this evening. (We are in the 4th district). She was doing fundraising, which I cannot help her with right now, but when I told her we had 9 children, she said we were doing our part to help our country. She then asked if we homeschool, which I replied, "Of course," and she was very pleased to hear that and told me her one and only child will home educate her 2 children ages 11 and 9 next year. Interesting stuff.

I told her that she was the 2nd Congressmen I had ever spoken with~the first, unfortunately, being Tim Valentine. She laughed a knowing laugh. Get this folks. I spoke with Tim Valentine back in Fall 1993. He had a Durham office and I made an appointment to speak with him. We talked about issues and when I asked him to vote against partial-birth abortion he got furious and informed me that such a procedure did not exist. Well, Mr. Valentine, if such a procedure does not exist, how was it that the following year, 1994, the Contract with America pledged to pass legislation abolishing partial-birth abortions?

To anyone out there thinking of voting for B. Hussein Obama, remember this~ he thinks it's perfectly acceptable to stick a forceps around a baby being delivered to crush its skull. Sick, sick, sick. I shudder for this country.

Have another baby. Don't send your kids to public school. Love and trust and fear God. Be merciful. Do to others what you would have them do to you.

Till later....
