  •     My dad taught me about patriotism. I don't honestly know how he did it, but his love for this country permeated his life. Perhaps it was because he was one of the several children of Italian immigrant parents who made their way to Butte, Montana. Some of you might know Butte used to…

  •   Do not fret because of evil men or be envious of those who do wrong; for like the grass they will soon wither, like green plants they will soon die away. Psalm 37:1-2 (NIV)

  •                                                                                                       The "beat" twangs and strikes a painful chord. The music isn't lively, pretty, sultry, rockin', or solemnly beautiful. It's off key. Sounds wretched.

  •        Graded as the most important election ever for our country, both sides of the two main parties have their heels dug in firmly to their positions as the voting deadline of November 6th, 2012, approaches. Enough mud has been slung to bury the devastated Jersey shoreline. Enough lies have been told to…

  •                            I love my country because: It's one nation under God. In God We Trust. The Constitution was formed with God's principles as the foundation. Many of our forefathers were Christians and prayed for God's wisdom in forming this great nation. I have the freedom to worship God in Spirit and in Truth.…
