Pacific Yurts is a company in Oregon that sells yurts in AMerica. They start at $4,275. I think I will build one on my mom’s property. Here is a Kazakh yurt for $4,000!

Bring back memories JJ???

Hillary Clinton’s political ambitions reached far beyond being the first Lady. Now she wants to be the First Mother. The mother of a socialist dream. She sits in her comfy sofa chatting to the American people as if we were children saying things like “Don cha think?” She republished her book “It Takes a Village” right before announcing her candidacy.

The media has downplayed her socialist dreams for America. We all know about her plan to socialize medicine. She also wants to “socialize” families. In 1998, Concerned Women for America published an article about then President Bill Clinton announced “a $22 billion dollar daycare program benefitting government bureaucracy at the expense of parents and their children. ” Phyllis Schlafly wrote in a recent column about Hillary’s “mom strategy.”

The word village is a euphemism for government, and the concept of the village raising a child is the socialists’ dream. It’s based on the idea that children should be raised, guided and educated by an assortment of so-called experts, including teachers, counselors, psychologists, psychiatrists, social workers, judges, and child care employees.

Clinton invites us to “imagine a country in which nearly all children between the ages of 3 and 5 attend preschool in sparkling classrooms.” That children’s paradise is France, which “makes caring for children a top priority,” and where “more than 90 percent of French children between ages 3and 5 attend free or inexpensive preschools.”

The assumption of “It Takes a Village” is that daycare, run by tax-salaried and licensed “professionals” in centers regulated by the government, is preferable to mother care. Clinton even praises the fact that many French children are in full-day programs “even before they reach the age of 3.”

The re-issue of Hillary’s old book dispels the notion that she is re-inventing herself as a moderate. Her mom strategy is badly out of sync with her book praising a country that starts government daycare for children at age 2.

The thing I hate about the idea of a government daycare is that it would cause taxes to be raised so high that it would force women to have to work and force their children into daycare learning about alternative families and new age relaxation techniques. My biggest nightmare is hearing my daughter say “at least when Clinton lied people didn’t die.” I want my children to learn to question everything and to think for themselves. They will never learn that from a Socialist Mommy or Daddy. If the “village” is the government and if Hillary is the president, then she will be our First Mommy. Scary. . doncha think??

This is Bush’s warning to Iran. Already Bush has ordered that any Iranians found fighting in Iraq would be killed. “If Iran escalates its military actions in Iraq to the detriment of our troops and - or innocent Iraqi people, we will respond firmly,” Bush said in an interview.

If you thought Iraq was bad. . . this will be 100 times worse.  I know America can win. The media and the Democrats would never support it because it might require sacrifice.

My Son: INFPs are idealistic, committed, and deeply passionate, but tend to idealize relationships, and are easily hurt and tend to hold grudges. Spontaneous and highly original, they also tend to be quite disorganized and become overwhelmed by details.

My daughter: ESTJs are matter-of-fact, logical, and realistic but tend to be a bit bossy and have difficulty being patient. While they are hard working, responsible, and reliable, they tend to be very reluctant to try new things and often resist change.

Me: ENFPs are creative, original, and full of new ideas, but may start many more projects than they finish. They tend to be impulsive, adaptable, and curious but are also distractible, disorganized, have great difficulty staying organized.

I think you can see my personality in my blog!!
