Look, I don't say I think Biden is Presidential material - surely he's not! - but comparing him with the other Dem candidates ... he sounds nearly sane in comparison. Better Bden in the White House than an extreme Leftist like Clinton, or a light-weight like Obama.benninghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12883327259794768568noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15375010.post-44536775612775407272007-09-25T10:07:00.000-04:002007-09-25T10:07:00.000-04:00"Let's pull for Joe Biden." ?

I miss your view of things.<BR/><BR/>Angel: Your "Humble Abode" is fun and inviting. ;)<BR/><BR/>Sisiggy: We've all noticed that. It's one of the reasons that "hyphenated" celebrants tend to make me grind my teeth a little. I enjoy experiencing the music, literature, cuisine, and so forth, of other cultures. But I enjoy my own culture's, too. Why it's okay to denigrate my country's traditions, but it's a hate crime to denigrate another's is beyond me. <BR/><BR/>"Please, if you hate our ways so much, leave! Don't let us keep you!

Why, then, is it so "ethnocentric" when <I>I</I> express pride in being an American? I see (read...) it all the time: an American will praise some tradition described on a non-American blog while denigrating their own -- like we have to be <I>apologetic</I> for being American. It has the air of The Dixie Chicks about it...Sisiggyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12187439975974001825noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15375010.post-36766818202652192482007-09-20T22:07:00.000-04:002007-09-20T22:07:00.000-04:00Somebody described culture as a Society's personal...Somebody described culture as a Society's personality....I re-read this..outstanding Benning and great to see you at my humble abode!WomanHonorThyselfhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17211851365273181636noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15375010.post-82957537760073803732007-09-20T20:47:00.000-04:002007-09-20T20:47:00.000-04:00Benning,This time its for real :-) I think I am ba...Benning,<BR/>This time its for real :-) I think I am back on a consistant basis,... and to celebrate I did a little re-decorating of my pad (no pun intended), and added you (once more) to the limited few blogs I give a damn about ...(pardon the dangling whatever it is...) <BR/>Expect the house of Pain around here more often.<BR/>Salud ~~~Dardin Sotohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06860312622246919118noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15375010.post-3545016325622464382007-09-20T03:59:00.000-04:002007-09-20T03:59:00.000-04:00Good article.Good article.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15375010.post-89960803538993458692007-09-19T17:14:00.000-04:002007-09-19T17:14:00.000-04:00Meyer is responsible for his trouble.
