Perry got a BA or BS from Yale while his mother “just got a BA.”. “Just?” Excuse me?
I just read your article in the Sunday grand rapids press re Biden’s time in office so far. I have never read anything you wrote before and will not read anything you wrote in the future!! Your analysis leaves the most important issue in this country out of the discussion, namely abortion!! I voted for Trump both times as he is opposed to abortion that has killed upwards of 60, 000, 000 souls so far. The truth is Trump is a buffoon, and I hope that Republicans can get a consistent nominee next time. But you can be assured that if that happens, Republicans will win the next election by overwhelming numbers.
Black people amount to about 20% of the population, but they are killing themselves as 50% or more abortions are on black women. The “right to control one’s own sexual actions” is no reason to deny any child their “right to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness, ” as the constitution says. God will be judge, but by that time, it will be too late for some! Why don’t you write about these matters and what will happen to our religious freedoms if Biden keeps doing as he does? Our country is on a fast downward trend not to socialism but communism.
