I wasn't so concerned about punctuation changes or editing correct, but that I may make changes that you might like to know about. (some of these things have shouted at me each time I have edited, but for some reason this time around I feel the need to change them.) I have not done a complete read yet, these items jumped out as I was working on formatting text:
----------------
This section always seemed a little awkward to me, and I also found that there was an error when I went to make it more readable as I had declared the second link a video.
from:
Watch Video: Storm Clouds Gathering4
Watch Video: The Natural Rights Foundation5 (bear links)
"Will you see what you think of the video…less than 15 minutes."
to:
"Will you see what you think of the video…less than 15 minutes :"Storm Clouds Gathering4 from The Natural Rights Foundation.5

Each time I read this I wanted GW's name added, but didn't do it till this time around. So this is a modification to Joe Words.
from:
“Either you are with us or you are with the terrorists”6
to:
“Either you are with us or you are with the terrorists”6
—George W. Bush
------------------
This change was just because the original seemed awkward:
from:
“To me it is like you telling me, ‘I don’t care what color the Republicans say they are. I say they are blue. They were blue and they are blue. I don’t care if everyone else now says they are red because they changed from blue to red. Don’t you dare call them red! They are blue.’
“And I say, ‘When a rose changes colors it is time to take note and change words.’”
to:
“To me it is like you telling me:
- I don’t care what color the Republicans say they are. I say they are blue. They were blue and they are blue. I don’t care if everyone else now says they are red because they changed from blue to red. Don’t you dare call them red! They are blue.

I added The Lord Jesus Christ here because I wanted to be clear Whom I was speaking about.
from:
It is this God Who has all power, and it is His Son, Who can set you free, so that you can be: Free indeed.
to:
It is this God Who has all power, and it is His Son, the Lord Jesus Christ, Who can set you free, so that you can be: Free Indeed!

So, I am not so worried about talking to you about benign punctuation changes or error corrections, but am more concerned that you know when I am making textual modifications. What do you think? Should I let you know about these types of changes, or would you pick them up yourself when you do a reread after I have finished?
