Comments on: I believe in justice and truth, without which there would be no basis for human hope. http://www.scoutj.com/2008/08/29/i-believe-in-justice-and-truth-without-which-there-would-be-no-basis-for-human-hope/ I'm a mama of two who just wants to wake up and have her espresso and knit a few stitches in solitude.

One of these days I'll watch it on YouTube. Right now I am watching the polls and worrying, and thinking about contacting Obama's NH people to see what help they need. (There's no point in my working for him in MA -- if he can't win here by double digits there's nothing I or anyone can do for him.) I didn’t see the speech, but I didn’t need to.

About my phone call with Verizon? Because after all the jiggeting with our router that they had me do, I've sent out a couple of emails to you and others and haven't gotten any responses. It may just be the holiday but now I'm wondering if my email has gotten bollixed up. In case you didn't get my email, Verizon hasn't blocked your site in any way and the techs were amazed at the problem. Apparently the request to go to your site doesn't even get past our router, though I can go anywhere else I want to. Your other Verizon customers may be having the same problem.

That's the first time I've ever heard a politician say all the things I believe about what a government is supposed to do for its people. It hit me hard. I also could not help but worry that some heinous individual's going to try the same thing that happened to Dr. King. Please, let us keep this good, brave man, and let him do what's been needed for a long, long time. If he's not voted in, I'm staying in Canada for good, that's for sure.

Right back atcha. I let my little ones(11 and 15, so not so little I guess) stay up wayyy too late to watch the whole thing and they've been buzzing about it all week. Yay us.
