    Default HAPPY THANKSGIVING!!!

    Yes. It's Thanksgiving already... Anybody willing to go through the old standard? For what are you Thankful?
    Excellence is an art won by training and habituation. We do not act rightly because we have virtue or excellence, but rather we have those because we have acted rightly. We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence, then, is not an act but a habit.
    - -- Aristotle

    Believe nothing on the faith of traditions, even though they have been held in honor for many generations and in diverse places. Do not believe a thing because many people speak of it. Do not believe on the faith of the sages of the past. Do not believe what you yourself have imagined, persuading yourself that a God inspires you. Believe nothing on the sole authority of your masters and priests. After examination, believe what you yourself have tested and found to be reasonable, and conform your conduct thereto.
    - -- The Buddha

    It is the mark of an educated mind to be able to entertain a thought without accepting it.
    - -- Aristotle

    I am thankful because I know the good guys don't always come in first but they always end up winning in the end!

    I am also thankful the the rule of law always ends up working- sometimes it is a slow process, but it actually works!

    Looks like liberals can't even take the opportunity to be non-partisan and instead find a need to inject their agenda.

    Dude, Thanksgiving is about the bringing of people together, and a celebration of how some aliens from other nations landed on American Shores, made peace, and had a nice dinner with the welcoming natural born citizens of America- the American Indians.

    Donald Trump has taken that tradition and turned it into an all out war with people of other nations who land here, capture them, take their children away from them, shoot them if necessary, and use our military against them, while gathering them up and locking them up in internment camps.

    We shouldn't even be celebrating Thanksgiving anymore! It makes us look like Hypocrites who lost our traditional way!

    I'm thankful for things too numerous to list...

    ...but for here, I will list that I am thankful for this forum.

    Yeah, I abuse the right to be nasty and crude often, but I truly respect the place and you, as the owner, even when I am being nasty and crude.

    Oh...and I am thankful that golf season has effectively ended for me, because my game suck world class this season.

    So please explain how your previous comment, was bringing people together.

    Then maybe you can move on how this post of yours, is also bringing anyone together.

    I don't have the bULLY pULPIT! Therefore Donald Trump is in the best position to bring this nation together!

    Yet, every tweet, is intended to further divide us!

    Now, if you and I want to work together, to discuss how we go about trying to bring people together, fine. We can always have that discussion.

    You go first!

    I am thankful that people don't overreact to everything Trump says, does, or Tweets.
