[hileeopnyn8d]

10. Thank you once again, Jackeens

Number four is very powerful. You can't look at that photo and tell me that those two men don't care deeply about this country, and are trying to do their best.

I wonder what the comment was that drew that reaction from them?

[kayakjohnny]

11. I'm so delighted that you do this for us, Jackeens....

I contstantly spend much more time than expected when I click on your threads. It always warms my heart to see this guy with people. He sure loves his life. And he knows how to light up a room.


Cheers, Jackeens!

when I can't find them at the top of the page.


thanks for your efforts.

[demigoddess]

15. thank you so much, we haven't seen this much of the White House in 9 or 10

years, especially during the * years. And Pres. Obama seems like such a nice man.

16. I find #4 disturbing...

Hubby and I do that and usually means "Tired of this shit" - broken car when money's short, hospital bill came in for kids broken arm then again for a broken ankle, the light bill's due and so is the car insurance, car tax, cable bill, phone bill and then that damn broken car needs fixing......

sigh. Poor man, I feel ya. Stay strong and do right by us.

[ellie]
