Last night, I had the opportunity to attend K-State University Orchestra and Concert Choir CHRISTMAS program and it was beautiful!!...it was so good to be able to hear all of those favorite CHRISTMAS songs and when they sang the "Hallelujah" from "Messiah", the entire packed audience in McCain Auditorium STOOD in reverence....how impressive. I am sure that some "state/federal" money was spent to put this production on.... It is too bad that the little town of Emporia bent to the ACLU...if every town stood together, the ACLU could not sue all of them~~~ We need to take back OUR rights!!
