³These athletes overcome more challenges, discrimination and adversity

comments do not reflect how he truly feels about the special needs

Well, after the way his allies went after her, he really couldn't
count on a full-throated defense of a boneheaded comment. Obama used
the whole "it's just a joke" excuse with his "lipstick on a pig"
comment, too.

Be nice to see if she's revised her comments on family values.

I find it interesting that she opted to accept stim money for construction,
but refused it for "special needs children", even after stating in her
campaign she would "be a friend to special needs children".


Thanks for the info, BA. If there's one person who should be sympathetic
* to special needs children it should be her.


We all feel for you and your special needs John.


Damn it! There you go speaking in the plural again. That's never a very
good sign in any individual.

He doesn't seem to be gaining many followers, and have you noticed, he's
not posting today?

Probably busy learning another routine...

- A one and a two and a three and a four....
- I bet he watches Lawrence Welk on Saturday
- (The day PBS shows it most places) night,
- thinking what a "hep cat" he was.
