I Googled your name with wikipedia, and this is what came up. (weird...how as I typed....in my head I could hear.....Jack and Jill going up the hill.)
Michael Avery “Mike” Ross (born August 2, 1961) is the U.S. Representative for Arkansas's 4th congressional district. He is a member of the Democratic Party. Ross is currently the dean of the Arkansas congressional delegation, or its most senior member.
Boy, did my blood boil;
recoiling having God gene switched,
"Two faced cousin, MIKE!"
Two stepping like a jealous daughter while everyone watching nearby standing, his mother happy her husband dancing; my Father having made you a sandwich; with my mother claiming in my absence.....HELPLESS.....as if my fault I won't come home, as I was the one who left home FIRST!
My parents raised me in a Methodist church, and now my wife and I are doing the same with our children. I am a proponent of having God involved in our daily lives in order to remind us of our values, principles, and the ability to treat those around us with respect. This country was built upon the religious principles of its founders and these principles must remain the basis for our American way of life.
Over the years, my faith and the values I learned from my parents and church have served me well in facing life's challenges. Please know that as a fifth generation Arkansan, I will continue to represent the Christian values in Washington I was raised on and still believe in strongly today.
"JESUS FUCKING CHRIST!"
"HOW DARE THEY! HOW DARE YOU/THEY ALL GETS AWAY WITH THAT!"
Mike! I don't know whether you are a true Blue Dog Democrat or just catering to those stupid God Damn rural hicks; you know the ones I'm talking about:
"they cling to god and guns!"
I'm sick and tired of how.... "being nice" to "god damn stupid Christians"...... gets used to your advantage.
I grew up with those hicks! I was not only raised by Mother all alone (so she claims) without her husband help, but a Mother who used the same church my Father's mother used to help her raise her child....MY DAD!
Although two years older than me, do not remember you at all; except for the Avery Reunion through your Mother's connection. I remember her very well ....a very nice but quiet woman with leg braces. Even your Father with his pipe..... acting very intellectual.
I believe I am correct in claiming the United Methodist Church......IN MY NAME, as well as my Father's...... being responsible, the one to blame, if any fault with us for not being Church going citizens. Won't speak for my Father, but my Mother told me, my dad went to that Church once he returned to his childhood hometown to start his practice; but only once! By the Grace of God (not my Mother's words), an established doctor in the town of Prescott died in a car accident with my Dad having almost an overnight busy practice. In fact.....Mother claimed he never went to church again.
Realizing also, neither did I see his mother or father at that Church while growing up.....with the help of THAT CHURCH....... as a child in Prescott.
Funny how Doctors kind to get that God attitude, don't you think? He was hard core Republican. "They gave away the Panama Canal!" Still hear him as if right beside me now; an I don't even remember ever him wanting us around him. Me and David couldn't stand our Father, my sister the only one constantly in his face trying to be the good daughter. Remember my Mother crying a lot as well. It was always my impression it was my Father. But looking back, he wasn't physically abusive; not with me anyway.
Don't get me wrong; it's not him I'm laying my shortcomings on or even that of my family. Made no attempt or even cared to be near my Father knowing he was dying; even went dancing the night Mother called telling me had died. In death, I've come to realize he also was an extremely unhappy man doing what was expected of him. His only pleasure seemed to be how much taxes he could keep the government from getting; bragging how he got his taxes back as subsidy to not farm on land he never intended to
It seemed my sister was always busy, busy, busy: cheer leading, basketball (in fact State Championship), the shared B-Day party with the Daniel's Donna, always with friends doing something. Definitely no attention deficit there. Don't remember her much with the Methodist Church.....and she was married there. Now she's in North Little Rock with "Baptist" Church. Churches no different than country clubs!
She's pretty much just a parrot, as she repeats things she's heard her Father say, her NOBAMA PERIOD!husband say, most especially her rich lady tennis friends say (friends whom I can't help but believe enjoy laughing at her as she laughs with them).
Busy, Busy, Busy! Only tennis just about. And a grandson she helps my niece take care of. She so busy and tired she claims; to be of any help to her brother in Atlanta; a drug addiction everyone freaking out about; in fact, a friend of hers along with my mother (three ladies on CRUISE LINE ARK), all the way to Atlanta believing they were performing an heroic intervention. Women! Truly are amazing, aren't they! Don't think about anything do they; these three at least anyway; the one believing herself the smartest one brought along to do the driving once reaching Atlanta.....being she used to drive a BUS. Looked just like Paula Dean. Politically being what you might expect as well; perfect match of someone you absolutely do not bring into my home.
"NO, no, NO! Again! Like I told you that day on the phone; that same day all this started. That day I thought it was from me you learned that word...INTERVENTION! "The day it was me calling you telling you to let you know I had an addiction. Again!. No, no, no; it ain't possible to call it an intervention as it would be on top of the one that day I called YOU performing my own intervention; believing if not me than who as just about no one of anybody I knew, at least alive, left but me;carted off by families who confronted them as they party and played not ready to stop.
The party ended years ago for me as I continue to work; even when flying home for both nieces' weddings.
My brother the redneck, "Don't care how educated a black man is, he's still a NIGGER." My mother getting angry with me before even able getting far enough to even call it a debate; as in civil debate. As it was not our problem; not a fight until I spoke up......at the dinner table. My brother I believe having been cheated out of fair competition the most, not overlooking what he does or say wrong, but the one with the better reason to be bitter. I still do now!
But I believe it is..... ME.... having been disappointed the most by those I believe should know better, or at least reasonably able to learn from me without being so quick to dismiss what I've learned from life as being just my opinion or .....ME.....the one having gone astray.....ME,,,,,.having made the wrong decisions.
I'm willing to die to get my message out there; my own family not willing to help as I bare my soul for all to see, as I use them and the people in my life to explain why I am the way I am.
I'm only man, formerly a child, once nothing more than a blank page on which everyone has left their mark.
If it true ....... the truth will set you free......strange how I tell the truth and it just adds to my stress......no one......absolutely no one willing to join me with one of their own.
Me left all alone with mine.
