Kevin,
I am glad you remembered to be Thankful for some of your blessings. I am
surprised that you look at all of your blessing from a political base. I
suggest you realize there are many things to be thankful for that have
nothing to do with politics. Probably the most important one is good
health. I understand you do have some health issues, but it could be
worse. You could suffer from NPD.
