Every child comes with the message that God is not yet discouraged of man.
—Rabindranath Tagore
Love and the promise of renewal are ever present in the human heart. We’re going through some tough times and more ahead. When has it ever been easy for humankind? No matter what we face we hold on to the belief that each new generation is an affirmation of all our expectations—this time it will be better. It’s trite but true, life goes on.
Returning Iraq vets trigger N.C. baby boom
Nine months after an entire U.S. Army division began returning from Iraq, the “largest-ever military baby shower” was held in North Carolina, observers say.
Dr. David Schutzer, who heads Fayetteville’s Highland Ob-Gyn Clinic, told The Times his practice delivered 50 percent more babies than usual in October, most of them military.
Perhaps our only remaining hope of defeating the left is to out- breed them.
BTW- I’m about to become a Grandpa- one Rush baby, coming up.

Pat, Your post reminded me of one of my favorite books and chapters from the bible.
There is an appointed time for everything, and a time for every affair under the heavens.
A time to be born, and a time to die; a time to plant, and a time to uproot the plant.
A time to kill, and a time to heal; a time to tear down, and a time to build.
A time to weep, and a time to laugh; a time to mourn and a time to dance.
A time to scatter stones, and a time to scatter them; a time to embrace, and a time to be far from embraces.
A time to seek, and a time to lose; a time to keep, and a time to cast away.
A time to rend, and a time to sew; a time to be silent, and a time to speak.
A time to love, and a time to hate; a time of war, and a time of peace.
Ecclesiastes 3, 1-8
“Perhaps our only remaining hope of defeating the left is to out- breed them.”
That premise is promising and actually has merit. “Conservatives” (I hate these labels)typically have more children that “Liberals”. Perhaps the disparity is due to the abortion rate among Liberals.
