I think its a great thing to have them come here and really see what the average everyday Americans life is like. Many of our so-called celebrities these days give us Americans a bad example of what it's like to be an American. So yes I think it's refreshing for them to actually see what the average American lifestyle is like. Let them and the rest of the world know that we are just hard working people that only want the best for us and our families. Just like any other family in the world. I hope they go back with a better understanding of what America and the people are all about.

How embarassing that you are "local" and can't even make a logical argument. You "one issue guys" are blindly obssessed and would turn a story about kittens into an anti-Obama, anti-black tirade. This kind of mental illness will die out soon enough; these marvelous young people engaging in respectful cultural exchange will outshine your generation and help to make America nad the world a better place.

Daily Horoscope for December 14

Scorpio

Something that's been buried comes to the surface today, triggering a change in your life. This could be quite dramatic and public, or it may happen on an inner level so that you're the only one who's fully aware of what's going on. If this is something that you've been fighting to suppress, it will be painful to have it finally exposed but you must accept that it was inevitable.
