I’m a member of Vinefire.com and I constantly run across very poorly written English sentences. For instance, here’s one I found today:

Yesterday Teddy Kennedy passed away. Many people loved him. He is famous. Do you know why? Have you heard the name “Kennedy” before? What do you know about them? What are your opinions about their various family members? Let’s discuss!
Here in the United States, we have something in our Constitution called “free speech.” That means that anyone who is a citizen of the USA can peacefully express their opinion publically or privately without fearing the police, the government, or being put in prison.
If you have seen the news recently, you may have seen Americans expressing their opinions in “Town Hall” meetings saying they don’t want the government to run health care and they don’t want the health care bill rushed without all of the Congress members actually reading it first.
The President of the US and the Congress members that are in favor of a government-run health care plan are very angry that people are expressing themselves. The President has told people to report other people who write things against him, his policies, or the White House and he has even made a special email link for them to report people! That’s NOT free speech.
The Congress people who are having the Town Hall Meetings are saying that someone is organizing or paying people to disagree. They don’t accept free speech either.
What do you think about this subject? Do you have free speech in your country? Do you think the President and Congress of the USA should follow the country’s Constitution, or not? Do you believe in free speech personally?

My recommendation, don't ever do business with PeoplePC. They ripped us off with absolutely no regret and no refund. They have zero integrity as a company! Make sure you always carefully check your credit card statements--you may be getting ripped off by some company without your knowledge, too.
After listening to this song, can you tell me what he means by "Home is where the heart is, where the heart is home"? I can relate to this song because both my brother and I were raised in a different country--islands of the Pacific--and we both feel a longing to return there. We also have a home where we will live for eternity. Can you guess where that is?
