Mr. Webster describes profession as the act of taking the vows of a religious community, or: an act of openly declaring or publicly claiming a belief or faith: an avowed religious faith a: a ...

  • Amazing that Americans Have This Discussion

    Having studied American civics in grade school and high school, and having my doubts that Bush Cheney or anyone else in our current White House similarly learned about American history, traditions, institutions and law, it continually amazes me that this Bush Cheney Presidency has run riot so egregiously. Congress? Lay down. The Courts? Lay ...

  • Makes Me Laugh -- Elites With Furrowed Brows AT LAST - -

    So, the FDIC Chairman is a female children's book author from Massachusetts, who started her new job running security for our Nation's bank deposits since 2006? How fortunate for her. I am a Massachusetts/New Hampshire working guy going back to 1990, originally from the Midwest, with some college but no degree, and I have been ''getting ...

  • "new of the day" suggestion

    I think a news of the day is a good idea, but a ''news of the week'' is better. For example, I like your writing, and have read many articles you've written. I know you are busy, but I wish you would find the time to review my parody blog. It was recently featured in the St Petersburg Times GRADEBOOK education blog, but I have since added even ...

  • I was not Left Behind, thank you very much.

    While the last few years of my public education were under Bush's ridiculous program, I believe that due to the excellent and dedicated teachers at my High School, I was able to escape to college mostly unaffected by the President's ridiculous mandates. That being said, in Connecticut, as in many other schools, there were mandatory testing every ...

  • Democrats in Congress Failed Us All 8 Years

    The Democrats and Democratic Party failed to stand up for what is right for the entire eight years of the Bush / Cheney White House misrule. They gave away our American two-party system; they gave away majority rule; they gave away our civil rights and bill of rights and civil liberties; they gave away the constitutional authority of the ...
