I love politicians, not that there's anything wrong with that.
If you haven't heard yet, the "I'M NOT GAY", not that there's anything wrong with that, Senator from Idaho, Larry Craig, is reconsidering his decision to step down from the U.S. Senate. He also felt his decision to plead guilty was a bad one and his decision to not seek out counsel during his legal problem was not a good idea either.
Will this man make up his mind on something please?
Isn't it his party that jumps all over some Democrats for first voting for the war in Iraq and now say it was a bad idea and that they should not have voted for the war's funding?
We as voters have to realize we have ALL the power. Politicians, all of them, will take the side of whatever they feel will get them the most votes. We as voters should start to make this idea work for us. As a whole we should start demanding some crazy stuff. I would like every household to get a free pizza and a movie once a week. Or how about each household is granted a free cruise every three years. I will settle for free cable.
I no longer care, or ever did, about the toe-tapping-can-you-spare-a-queer senator from potato(e) land. But please stop wasting people's time with your flip-flopping. I wonder how long it takes him to get dressed in the morning or to order at Denny's?

It's A Miracle!
Often we see or hear of various miracles in the news. TV stations will show a variety of items people profess to be images of Jesus or The Virgin Mary. The reporters will often struggle to actually see what the believers see, and will leave it for the viewer to decide for themselves.
I've seen windows, trees, oil stains, salt stains, birthmarks, potato chips, corn chips, and a grilled cheese sandwich all containing an image of either Christ or the Virgin Mary. The people that own the items often make claim that they are seeing a miracle. I say, no. The miracle is not in what is being seen, the miracle is that people are seeing the icons of faith.
The world we live in today could be easily summed up as "confused". Wars, local violence, rampant images of sexuality, religious problems, world issues, health issues, financial problems, heroes lost, and Rosie O'Donnell/Donald Trump.
Yet, despite all the confusions, people are still able to see God. This is the miracle. Because if you have an image in your heart you will see it everywhere you look. I once saw a documentary about Elvis fans, Greetings From Graceland. In the movie a woman in line at Graceland carrying a photo of a cloud swore the cloud was an image of Elvis. She had Elvis in her heart. I guess I didn't because all I saw was a cloud.
I am glad people see Jesus in toast and Mary on blimps. Because that lets me know people have God in their hearts. We have to start somewhere, right?
