Self Fullfilling Prophecy in Todays Politics...The end is not near!!!

Written by bt on

He decided he would die soon to show how much he loved her and missed her. He was a very difficult man to live with I was told, perhaps a little spoiled, but I always loved him.

Written by iludiumphosdex on
To whom it may concern: First, please accept my apologies if this Open Letter causes you any undue or unnecessary intrusion on your day. In any case: Doesn't it seem where, on your end, you must be swamped with all manner of identically-phrased-and-nuanced letters and e-mails in response to the latest "name-and-shame" campaigns coming from the likes of so-called "family values" groups such as the American Family Association, Focus on the Family, the Family Research Council and the Traditional Values Coalition taking you to task for things like "supporting the homosexual agenda***to the detriment of Traditional Moral and Family Values," to use a common ...
