Elsewhere body bags line the streets and obviously belong to little children and bodies are made ready for burial. Those who are surviving are reaching out for comfort. And others are trying to attend them. None of the victims have outward cipes of traum or cuts or bleeding.

The word of shots fired inside Mcnair Discovery Learning Center in decatur, georgia, was quickly followed by images of s. W. A. T. Teams surrounding the school, children being hurried to safety by teachers. A scene we have witnessed far too many times with horrifying outcomes.

The president could come before the committee and speak all the truth that he wants, if he wants to. You dont expect him to do that . If he wants to take the oath of office. He could do it in writing. He has every opportunity to present his case. Hans, the president seems to be saying maybe i will and maybe i will .
