They say there is a silver lining behind every cloud. The recent news shows that this may be true.
Cloud: A man takes over an Amish school and murders several young girls.
Silver Lining: The word "forgiveness" is being spoken on the nightly news and is being modeled before our eyes by the Amish. Yes, those backward folks who don't even know what an Ipod is or use Instant Messaging, are showing all of us what it means to turn the other cheek.
Cloud: A member of the U.S. House of Representatives, Mark Foley (R-FL), resigns after his despicable behavior is brought to the light of day.
Silver Lining: Even the liberal Democrats are saying that certain behavior is beyond the pale. Some are even using language that would be considered gay bashing if used by someone with an "R" behind their name. If only they would use the same energy against their own. Does the name Kennedy or Frank or Reynolds ring any bells. Maybe the Boy Scouts aren't so wrong in wanting to keep homosexual men away from young boys.
