Why I May Vote for Kerry
by roybatty ini'm a registered republican but i have to admit that after looking at john kerry's web site, i may have to sway my vote his way.
what caught my eye is kerry's attention toward jobs leaving for overseas countries and how the government can at least stop encouraging (and rewarding)large corporations from doing this.
at bush's site, i don't see anything about this huge problem facing america.

Business Dealing Between JW's & Ex-JW's
by roybatty ini don?t know if anyone else recalls this or not, but i remember reading articles in the wt publications about having business dealings with ex-jws and how witnesses should do everything possible to avoid this.
they even stated that if your business partner becomes df?d, you should do everything possible to get out the business (i.e.
buy him out or letting him buy you out).

Changd My Mind About the War In Iraq
by roybatty ini don't want one more u.s. soldier to die for the iraqi people.
it's now obvious to me that the international community was right.
the people of iraq do not deserve to live in a free society.

13-year old son going to partake tonight
by roybatty inmy 13-year old son is with his jw mom this weekend but he just popped by to grab his baseball mit and to tell me (lol) that since his mom is making him go to the memorial tonight, he's going to eat the bread.
he's a great kid but he has no sense of fear.
i didn't know if i should laugh or tell him not to.

Protesting the War in Afghanistan
by roybatty injust wondering about something.
i?ve been reading articles about the 9/11 panel and their investigation of the events leading up to that tragic event.
in hindsight, something should have been done and we could argue all day long if it?s clinton?s fault or if bush should have done something.

Hoping The Meeting is Cancelled
by roybatty ini'm sitting here at home in front the fire place, looking outside watching watching the snow fall.
not a blizzard but a pretty good snow fall for north-central illinois.
it feels great being at home on an evening like this, relaxing.
