I'm sure you're aware, but that letter was copied-and-pasted into many blogs at that time. <br /><br />I'm curious as to what kinds of problems this has caused for you? It would seem to me that any issues you would have had would qualify as harassment.<br /><br />At any rate, your name has been removed from this post.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00210245334156318187noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3976348.post-16419370700569494012010-01-28T14:53:50.739-05:002010-01-28T14:53:50.739-05:00I could not find an email address, but I am writin...I could not find an email address, but I am writing with regard to the letter Henry Karlson wrote to President Obama in late 2008. You have posted the letter on your blog or website. This is of concern to me because my name was included in this letter without permission. I do not desire to have my name associated with this letter. It has caused me problems in job interviews and other ways. So I am writing to ask you to remove my name from your blog posting regarding the letter. <br /> <br />I would greatly appreciate this as soon as possible. It is found here:<br /><br />http://catholicfather.blogspot.com/2008/11/open-letter-to-president-elect-barack.html<br /><br />(There's only one Darren on there, so I'm not including my last name.)darrenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14970682210689964419noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3976348.post-5006659805419034512009-07-17T19:20:43.596-05:002009-07-17T19:20:43.596-05:00My dd received statues, rosary, latin missal, pray...My dd received statues, rosary, latin missal, prayer books, holy cards, miraculous medal necklace, some money and cards.

Thomas Highlands, Beechwood from the middle school through high school for over a decade. Please tell me what is wrong with Campbell County again and how are these schools better? Campbell County has the most students in AP and College enrollment classes. More than some of the other "good schools" combined! You hit them on the poor scores but do you even know Campbell County has the highest student population with student needs in the region (who scores do count in school testing). Poor and pitiful Campbell County does what your untouchable schools will not do. They teach ALL students, including the ones Brossart, NewCath and Highlands wouldn't accept.

I went to Bishop Brossart, brothers to Latin and Newport Catholic and my sister went to Campbell County and was valdictorian of her class. Our children have gone to the same high schools and more than I care to admit went to Campbell County. Why, frankly a better academic program offering. This is insulting to people of Campbell County.

While I realize it is one of the "better" catholic schools, my youngest, in 2nd grade has not even started prep for first confession and first communion. This disturbs me greatly. As a child(granted, in the 70's) we started prep for our sacraments at the begining of the school year. I will be using the Baltimore for a prep for her because the school is failing on my part. I don't complain. I did it once and felt like I was being a pain so I suck it up. The principal is very good and salt of the earth. But he cannot battle every issue, he is only one person. So we may be homeschooling next year. Not because it is most desired, because we have totally run out of options and the schools here have totally lost their Catholic identity. Why pay for that? We are behind on bills, student loans and car payments trying to scrape the $ together for tuition and I feel I am doing most of the religious prepe for my kids, myself. I do not think we are alone.a thorn in the pewhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11975456892778482598noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3976348.post-74830964140155290272008-11-05T10:46:00.000-05:002008-11-05T10:46:00.000-05:00It's because Alan Keyes ran against Obama.

It's rare that the kids just get together without the parents to dictate all the finer points.<BR/><BR/>Although we do have the neighbor's kids come to our yard to play "pop-fly", where I hit 'em very high and they scramble and stomp each other to catch it.
