back off dd im with you. what i said was as long as washington tells the states do it our way or loose your funding. nothing is going to change.you make it sound as if i dont care and i do nothing. without going into details i will tell you , you cant be any farther away from the truth!im a realist not a dreamer and i also study history. since history repeats itself over and over its very easy to see whats happening and whats going to happen.our country is on a downward spiral and its going to be next to impossible to stop. fed. gov. has gotten so out of control, and voting NOW is the only way short of a revolution to stop it.we let them take away school prayer, the pledge because of the word god, christ out of christmas etc.things will change when we have politicans that are not afraid to be NOT politically correct
