"You know, I don't remember when it was exactly when I went beyond the sandbar. My family had a cottage on the shores of one of the Great Lakes. For the first 40 feet or so, the lake is shallow, warm, and protected from the big waves by a sandbar. That's where I spent most of the hot summer days as a boy. I liked it there. One day, my brother got me up on water skis. Perhaps fearing that a turn would cause me to fall, he drove the boat – and me – straigh...

Reasons to agree: People are going to assume the worst about why he liked a book, if he doesn't give any reason at all. For instance, he lists a book by Mark Twain on his website. People are doubting weather this is really his favorite book. Mitt Romney was a valedictorian English major. He had to have read a lot of books. These book reports from when he was younger, would give a great window into his mind. People who liked those books, like Romney. People may try to find embarrassing things in the book report, but people are going to assume the worst about Mitt Romney, and it is better to have them making fact based criticisms, because Romney did very well in school. In the olden days, no one would publish all your book reports. Now information is free. Romney could put them all on his web page, and only those who wanted to read them would. Reasons to disagree: People would search his book reports to for things to embarrass him. Articles that agree Get Naked an...

Get Naked and... Rule the world...   "Smart companies are sharing secrets with rivals, blogging about products in their pipeline, even admitting to their failures. The name of this new game is RADICAL TRANSPARENCY, and it's sweeping boardrooms across the nation. Even those Office drones at Dunder Mifflin get it. So strip down and learn how to have it all by baring it all."   The latest cover of Wired Magazine, has the girl from "The Office" and Napoleon Dino mite's love interest in blades of glory, proclaiming, "Get naked and rule the world". She is not wearing any clothes, but she is not really advocating that we all take off our clothes. It is a figure of speech.   Naked, in this sense, means transparent.   Mitt Romney wants, like the other candidates, to rule the world, so I suggest (along with this article) that he gets naked.   For all the articles in this subject go here:   http://www.wired.com/wired/a...

I received the following e-mail from an anonymous online person, on one of my blogs. It reads; "He is wrong on the issue of gay marriage and civil unions. He can't have it both ways. You either support gay rights in every aspect from equal employment opportunities to equal marriage rights or he doesn't. How can people defend marriage like it's some Godly thing when you have people like Kevin Federline and Britney Spears, or the high divorce rate? Just because you are straight doesn't mean you will be a good parent. In any case, just because a country allows gay marriage or civil unions , does not mean that country will have a flood gate of gays marrying. Just look at the statistics of countries like Canada or Holland. I stand by the notion that if you are against gay rights and under that umbrella is gay marriage, then you are inherently prejudice. Doesn't mean you will use a homophobic slur, but inside you have hateful feelings. I have a strong feeling he wo...

In Case You Missed It:  Romney Interviews   Governor Romney on Fox News In case you missed it, Governor Mitt Romney recently discussed several issues with Fox News' Carl Cameron.  Here are some excerpts of what Romney said.  On Life Issues: "Upon a full examination of the sanctity of life and when life begins, there is no question, when you put together all the DNA, you've got life and it's human. And I recognize that every civilized society respects human life. And on that basis, I came out and said, look, I am pro-life. Let there be no ambiguity." On Gay Marriage: "I want gay individuals to have equal rights in housing and equal rights in education. I don't believe in discrimination and I don't believe the American people do. That's a fundamental principle. At the same time, just as fundamental is the principle that marriage is a relationship between a man and a woman. And to suggest somehow that those two things can't co-exist, that respect...
