Have A Merry Christmas Everybody!

I truly hope and pray that everyone who comes in contact with my blog will have the best Christmas ever this year.

Here are just a few things to remember on Christmas day;

When opening the presents, it's the thought that counts. Try to be a little more tolerant when visiting the inlaws, stay awhile, don't leave too early, that will look too obvious. Save the bows. Sing a few Christmas songs. Watch "It's A wonderful Life" on TV. Buy plenty of batteries for the toys. And finally, be sure to remember those who have lost loved ones this year. And those who are away from home fighting for freedom in foreign lands.

Did I leave anything out?

To: Everybody
From: Ron

Merry Christmas!

Colson Supports McCain's Iraq War Strategy

Chairman of BreakPoint Prison Ministries Chuck Colson, an former Nixon Aide, has stated recently that he agrees with Sen John McCain's proposal of sending additional troops to Iraq. Colson, whom I respect and admire, goes on to say that McCain deserves the "Profiles of Courage award" for taking such a stand...Interesting.

Here's the article; http://www.breakpoint.org/listingarticle.asp?ID=5862

I personally do not have a problem with sending more troops to Iraq if I knew that it would make a real difference in securing Iraq and the region. This is a "quick fix" solution to a long term problem that I'm afraid America has no stomach for.
