That picture needs a tag line ... "Approach with Caution" comes to mind. Keep on "clinging" ... I know I am. :)

As I sat in prayer meeting tonight, comforted by my Bible in my lap and my concealed S&W 6906 at my side, the thought crossed my mind that the feeling I was experiencing was just about the polar opposite of bitterness.

Barrack Obama recently made the comments about there being bitter folks in Pennsylvania who cling to their Bibles and Guns, or some such thing.

Obama made a speech at a private fundraiser last week in San Francisco, describing some blue-collar workers as "bitter", who because of economic woes, "cling to guns or religion or antipathy to people who aren't like them."

Bitter? When I live in the best country in the World? Where even those that start with less perceived (by themselves only) advantages than I, can run for President, then have the audacity to tell me how they're misunderstood, by folks like me?

No, I do believe they're the ones laboring under some misconceptions.

Cling on! Excellent post and pic.

So I’ll cherish the old rugged cross,
Till my trophies at last I lay down;
I will cling to the old rugged cross,
And exchange it some day for a crown.

AMEN

Guns and religion are two things that definitely don't make you bitter, or at least me anyways. Guns, religion, family, what else is there really to cling to?
