Around here, selfishness, unbridled acquisitiveness, social paranoia, and soul-deforming greed, are all considered to be the real manifestations of morality. I hope the American people will stop shooting each other in the back and learn to get along some day. 73, Tom Donaly, KA6RUH |

Randy,
I value and believe in my emotions. Now what should I do? Seriously, "informed decision making" is a personal action that of necessity includes the context of an individual's emotions. What is informed for you may be just plain stupid for me, and vice versa. How could one ever completely separate "informed" decisions from emotions? 73, Gene W4SZ Theplanters95 wrote: Go vote on Tuesday. Vote your values and beliefs. Remember that your vote last 4 years. I am afraid many people are going to vote out of emotions, rather than informed decision making. |

One cannot give credence to a piddly few malcontents (270 out of millions) who have an agenda - mainly that of the Christian Coaliton. In contrast, the folks who served with Kerry, have an entirely different story to tell - a credible one! I suppose your close really says it all; you say the candidate is loyal to "mega-corporate cronies" and "loonies". Ahhhh, I'm dealing with the Almighty Chuck, the mortal who can discern cronies from friends and who can define the Common Folk. Yep, that answers everything. It is common knowledge that the Republican party is traditionally aligned to the rich and powerful, which includes mega-corporate interests - "no bid" Halliburton included - only a fool would refute this. As far as loonies, I've named only one: the one who's agenda is to "replace the constitution with the 10 commandments" and to "Disenfranchize all liberals". Rather than offer a credible retort, you attempt to demean my position. Intellectual honesty isn't one of your strong points, I see. Chuck Ed wb6wsn |

Hi, Cecil:
Worldlings have made that challenge since time immemorial. The someone listening is the author of prayer. Join in now, by praying for the grace of faith, just in case your position of apparent unbelief turns out to be the wrong one for all eternity. 73, Dave, N3HE "Cecil Moore" wrote in message ...
