Today's Poll: Are you wearing a costume for Halloween?

By Howard B. Owens

In lieu of the current Obama debacle/disaster Affordable care act, plus taking into consideration the President's promises about it ad nauseam that are turning out to outright lies; what costume will Obama be wearing...Pinocchio perhaps?

Yes I will be looking like an extra from Braveheart as I have a bunch of scottish themed medieval clothing. (The only exception is I wont be starkers underneath it as it's a wee bit chilly for that LOL )

Is Halloween politically correct? I think the schools are calling it fall festival, to be politically correct and not to risk offending anyone.. I think its a bunch of crap. Leave it be Halloween and let whoever wants to wear a costume, do so!

Stephen, Halloween is associated with religious beliefs and the representation of other people that may have lived in the past, and may have been treated badly by someone, who may, or may not, look like you. It is a tradition which is loved and remembered fondly by children and adults in our society. Obviously, it is politically incorrect and must be stopped.

All right thinking persons must support the annihilation of all our history and traditions. How are we to perfect the nature of the masses unless we destroy all that they know and believe and replace it with the progressive vision?

(If that seems ludicrous, it is. But it is real, and representative of a major political party's world view, but still ludicrous none-the-less.)

Back in the late-70's, I had a friend that hosted a Halloween party at his 'country' home for the kids from his church. He was 6-foot 5-inchs tall, about 250lbs. He donned a 'ski mask' (with only eyes & mouth holes), dressed head-to-foot in cotton fleecewear, pulled socks over his shoes, then rolled around in burdocks 'til he was covered in layers & layers of burdocks.
I'll tell you what - that was one scary sight.
Ah! Good times, good friends. 'Ya can't beat it!
