I know a few of the quotes sound kinda weird but some of them are inside jokes or comments. I assume the dead fish line is about Rham emanuel. Anyways I smell liberal fear.

RE: What I'm thankful for this Thanksgiving

I am glad you decided to put a cork in your misplaced complaints of Thanksgiving this year. Don't let perfect be the enemy of good right?

What I am thankful for this Thanksgiving.

Anyways, today I found out that my friend Sherman passed away. I am thankful for the time I had to work with him. He was the most laid back psuedo boss I ever had. He was incredibly private so there were plenty of things I never found out about him until he was gone. I discovered that he recieved purple hearts and was a medal of Honor recipient. I knew he was not happy about Vietnam so maybe thats why he never brought it up. He was incredibly proud that he lived to see the first president who was like him, a man of color.

One of the things people remember the most about someone who just passed away was the last conversation they had with that individual. The last conversation I had with Sherman was about about 2 or 3 weeks before he died. We always hope that our last conversation with someone would on a positive note. Luckily this was the case. Usually I ended a call by giving him some razz about how screwed up Obama was making things this week. The last topic turned out to be Sherman wishing that my company would finally be able to hire my wife so that my family could be together all of the time. I turned it around and told him I would prefer he used that wish for himself, so that he would be well since his life is much more important than the discomfort of being away from family. One week before he died, I heard that I will probably get a promotion and my company will probably be interviewing my wife for a position very soon. I wanted to inform him of the good news and tell him he had better make a few more wishes for me pronto! The only problem was that the next day I found out that he was in a hospice and was unresponsive. I really wanted to see him but I think I would have been going against what he would have wanted. I hate not being 100% certain about something so important and irreversible.

I may not have gotten my wish for his health but I am very Thankful for the time I had with Sherman and that his wish for me and my family is starting to become true. Rest in peace my friend.

I didnt like the drug program Bush offered and Hanity still bring up how he didn't like it years later. Bill is actually pretty soft on Obama. I think Luke is mixing conservatism with the GOP since they are not the same thing.

Bush also got blasted on FOX when he tried his Amnasty BS.

The original contract with America stuff worked pretty good at first. Welfare reform worked out very good from what I understand. The GOP of course began to lose it's was soon after that.

3000 dead after 9/11 was justification enough to blast Afghanistan.

Part of the pacification did involve paying off a few groups. It seems to have worked so I am not inclined to knock it.
