A Lady's Ruminations

"Jane was firm where she felt herself to be right." -Jane Austen, Pride and Prejudice

I'm also a usually quiet, reserved Lady, who enjoys books, tea, baking, and movies! I spend most of my time reading one of my favorite books or wishing I was reading my favorite books. My Grand Passion is history, particularly the Regency Period in England, when Jane Austen wrote, Lord Nelson defeated the French Fleet at Trafalgar, the Duke of Wellington defeated Napoleon, and men were Gentlemen and women Ladies. I cherish the thought of being a Lady and love manners, being proper, and having proper tea. My favorite tea is Twinings, especially Earl Grey or Prince of Wales. My specialty to make is Scones with Devon Cream. I am a Catholic and a Conservative.

"I want to live in an America where . . ."

If you have seen the two Hollywood-brainless-cultish videos supporting Barack Obama, then this will make you laugh.

In what hopelessly silly way would you end the sentence?

"I want to live in an America where . . ."

I would have to say, I want to live in an America where Jane Austen novels are read over the loudspeakers and on street corners.

I want to live in an America where we all stop at 4pm for Tea and Scones made in proper English china.

I want to live in an America where the sun never stops shining and the children all sing happy songs! *Pardon me, I feel like I'm about to cast up my accounts.*
And what do we really want?

I want to live in an America where every baby is allowed and legally has the right to be born, as we were promised with "life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness."

I want to live in an America where the government provides for the common defense and general welfare, but doesn't tell us what we can or cannot eat.

I want to live in an America where righteous laws are lived and enforced, including the laws governing our sovereign borders.

I want to live in an America where God is allowed in our schools, public spaces, and churches.

I want to live in an America that is living up to God's plan for this blessed nation.
