		<description>&lt;p&gt;My husband, Mr. CE is the best Dad in the world.  He got up every night to walk crying babies, changed their CLOTH diapers, and washed them as well.  He made breakfast each school day, and then drove them to school.  He was there for every story hour and ice cream social, clapped during each school play and listened and questioned those parent/teacher conferences.  He is a great husband and has dedicated his time to his son and daughter and worked a full time job for over 26 years.  Here’s a story written about our son Jack, and how his Dad has provided for him these many years. &lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Thanks, Dave, for your wonderful post!&lt;/p&gt;</description>

&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;p&gt;Kristol: McCain And Graham Plan To Introduce Legislation Undermining Supreme Court Decision On Guantanamo&lt;br /&gt;
Last week, the Supreme Court ruled that Guantanamo Bay detainees have the right to challenge their detention in civilian courts. Sens. John McCain (R-AZ) and Lindsey Graham (R-SC) wasted no time in publicly blasting the decision, saying they were “disappointed” in “one of the worst decisions in the history of this country.”&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;This ruling will inevitably lead to a “flood of new litigation” challenging the Bush administration’s right to hold these detainees, only one of whom has received a verdict. Detainees will then finally get a decision as to their status. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Today on Fox News Sunday, Weekly Standard editor Bill Kristol revealed that “very soon” — likely as early as next week — McCain and Graham will be introducing legislation to undermine the Supreme Court decision by setting up a “national security court”:

		<description>&lt;p&gt;ok, think progress has up right now that mccain is going to introduce legislation to undermine the scotus decision&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;the democrats really need to be prepared;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;“you are saying, if an person using the cover of office wants to put me out of business, all they have to do is claim I am a terrorist and I am put in jail with no chance of proving you were lying to get my business?”&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;“you are saying, if my son is raped by one of your depraved officials, all he has to do to avoid prosecution is make believe my son is some kind of terrorist and you don’t want him to be allowed to prove you are making that crap up?”&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;“WHAT IS WRONG WITH THESE IDIOTS?”&lt;/p&gt;</description>

		<description>&lt;p&gt;david-my former neighbor was a stay-at-home dad…..he’s a great dad……i have no idea how he found the energy to do all of the things he did…….every single day, rain or shine. a happier child i never have seen. his wife was a teacher.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;my two best friends married each other and with their daughter they both did the rearing, she just graduated from mt. holyoke, cum laude..i’m so proud of her!!… and the mom had a daughter from a previous marriage, the dad adopted her and treated her just like his own…..&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;people talk about the bond, i think the bond is knowing your child and what they need……they can feel that. so, no matter the arrangement, knowing your child is the thing. however you have to do that.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;i have the best dad in the world…..what he wants for father’s day, christmas and birthdays? consumables, that’s how he says it……so, i give him what he wants-quaker oatmeal cookies/with ’flies’ and a bread from nova scotia that he found when they visited there, he got the recipe from the bakery-for me to make for him…..christmas, tins of goodies that last him well into the new year.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;he’s been my dad from the fifth grade on, and my sister and i couldn’t have a better dad if we had picked one ourselves. he’s a really good guy. the most fair man i’ve ever known. mom and he were engaged in college, broke up, married and had kids with someone else, both got divorced, years later met up again because of his mom and got married, they are still in love…..knowing how much he loves my mom and she him amazes me every time i see them……just saw him last week and will celebrate his birthday on the fourth when i go up to help with the monthly charity pizza night my sister and mom and me do for her elks club.&lt;br /&gt;
last one we made 50? pizzas…….wow, huh?……dad fills in and helps where we need it.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;so, you don’t have to be ’blood’ to be a good dad……he might as well be my blood and i love him to death. and every year i make sure to get a mushy card and i say just that……what i said here.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;happy father’s day to all.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

		<description>&lt;p&gt;This is a complex case, but most self-respecting liberals should be opposed to Guantanamo because of the lack of due process. This is one step.&lt;/p&gt;</description>
