I'd be honored to sit
With y'all
I'll start out with a fine chablis
Civil-ed Spirits
Are so very important
Don't You agree?
Kindly, make mine
A cheese
and
Shrimp, dear sir
I do love those
G.R.I.T.S.casseroles
Yes sir, a side of conch salad
Would be lovely and
As would
A teeny slice of your mothers lovely
Sweet potato bread
And tall glass of unsweet tea
Please, dear
and Thank you
Now down business
Gratuitous you say?
I beg to differ, dear! ! !
Have you forgotten D-Day?
Note:
'In case we find ourselves starting to believe
all the anti-American sentiment and negativity,
we should remember England 's Prime Minister
Tony Blair's words during a recent interview.
When asked by one of his Parliament members
why he believes so much in America, he said:
'A simple way to take measure of a country
is to look at how many want in... And how many want out.'
' Only two defining forces have ever offered to die for you:
1. Jesus Christ
2. The American G. I.
One died for your freedom.
The other died for your soul.'

I agree with you totally, Deborah...but now watch your back. That sort of sentiment doesnt go down easy with the far left in America. Thanks for this. It is refreshing and I love chablis with my grits, thank you! :) Raynette
