Ms. Thompson you are a disgrace to our good City. You have offended the Hispanic community. As our President said on national TV, our country has moved beyond race. The remarks YOU made at the City Council meeting are unaccepable and, you should apologize to Vargas and to the BI Hispanic community .
I would never elect someone with your visions to lead our city. BI is a multi cultural city and I pride myself in knowing that we can lead the way beyond the race issues.
This will be my only posting. Thank you for reading!

If your interested, view the city council meeting video from 9/22/09.

Domingo seems like he's hiding something? Almost like he has a confession to tell us all? Could it be that he's a republician..Humm..I don't think so..What could it be?

Republican or Democrat. It doesn't matter. This is local politics. Those party ideals don't apply.

Commentary on the Pledge of Allegiance
by Red Skelton

As a schoolboy, one of Red Skelton's teachers explained the words and meaning of the Pledge of Allegiance to his class. Skelton later wrote down, and eventually recorded, his recollection of this lecture. It is followed by an observation of his own.

I -- Me; an individual; a committee of one.
Pledge -- Dedicate all of my worldly goods to give without self-pity.

Allegiance -- My love and my devotion.

To the Flag -- Our standard; Old Glory ; a symbol of Freedom; wherever she waves there is respect, because your loyalty has given her a dignity that shouts, Freedom is everybody's job.

United -- That means that we have all come together.

States -- Individual communities that have united into forty-eight great states. Forty-eight individual communities with pride and dignity and purpose. All divided with imaginary boundaries, yet united to a common purpose, and that is love for country.

And to the Republic -- Republic--a state in which sovereign power is invested in representatives chosen by the people to govern. And government is the people; and it's from the people to the leaders, not from the leaders to the people.

For which it stands

One Nation -- One Nation--meaning, so blessed by God.

Indivisible -- Incapable of being divided.

With Liberty -- Which is Freedom; the right of power to live one's own life, without threats, fear, or some sort of retaliation.

And Justice -- The principle, or qualities, of dealing fairly with others.

For All -- For All--which means, boys and girls, it's as much your country as it is mine.

And now, boys and girls, let me hear you recite the Pledge of Allegiance:
I pledge allegiance to the Flag of the United States of America, and to the Republic, for which it stands; one nation, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all.
Since I was a small boy, two states have been added to our country, and two words have been added to the Pledge of Allegiance: Under God. Wouldn't it be a pity if someone said that is a prayer, and that would be eliminated from schools, too?

When one stops to observe the inscriptions found in public places all over our nation's capitol, he or she will easily find the signature of God, as it is unmistakably inscribed everywhere you look. You may forget the width and height of "Laus Deo", its location, or the architects but no one who reads this will be able to forget its meaning, or these words: "Unless the Lord builds the house its builders labor in vain. Unless the Lord watches over the city, the watchmen stand guard in vain." (Psalm 127:1)

I can see why they, view Ms. Nancy Thompson as a political threat. She could not do any worse than the frasor-peloquin team.

Domingo Vargas the law scholar, who understands the rule of law, who understands the human condition, who understands people from all walks of life, who understands the oath of office he swore to obey,and uphold. Who understands the conditions in Blue Island,who understands his duty is to serve all the people of Blue Island regardless of who they are or where they come from. He has a need to apologize to Nancy Thompson, because he understands.

If this situation was reversed and Ms Flowers was called a racial slang it would be a completely different situation. All the major news outlets would have covered Jessie and the boys would have demanded a resignation and protests would have surely been organized. Blacks in America think they can not be racists.

Women are important
God is not just a boy or a man. God is more than our finite minds can comprehend. God is referred to as "he" or "father" because he provides for us and teaches us right from wrong via his word -- the Bible -- just as a father cares for his children. In Old Testament times, for many years judges were the leaders of Israel. Some of these judges were women; a notable one was Deborah, who rescued the Jews from their enemies. It was a woman, Esther, who saved the Jews from being killed during their exile under Persian rule. In New Testament times, when God decided to send the savior, he chose to send him as a baby in the womb of a woman, Mary. When Jesus was crucified, the women were the last to leave the cross -- the men were hiding in fear of the Jewish and Roman leaders. On the day Jesus Christ was resurrected, it was the women who came first to his tomb. When he was resurrected, he appeared first to a woman, Mary Magdalene. So women need not feel inferior. It is the women who give birth to the children. Without them the human race would soon cease to exist. God planned it that way. Women play an important role in God's plan.
