Honesty and respect aren't things I admire. It's something normal if you ask me. What I do admire is the ability to stay yourself and do what you want.

I guess there are many things I would admire in a person. First of all, I like honest and easy going people who do not take their frustrations out on you.

People who are calm and peaceful and can offer help if you need it. People who do not do u a favor having in mind something you will have to do for them afterwards. It is extremely selfish and mean.

I also admire people who can listen to you and understand ur beliefs so that they can convince you to their way of thinking and you may both agree at some points at least. Calling names, screaming and doing nasty things is out of the question.

Don't go at superficial judgement, go deep, u will find a different person. D. Eisenhover.

Integrity

(wow, the first post with only one word...cant leave it at that )

Not really "admire" but held in high esteem.

Twas brillig, and the slithy toves Did gyre and gimbel in the wabe.
All mimsy were the borogoves, And the mome raths outgrabe.

Confidence, courage an the baws to say it wis ma fault.
Eh intelligence, imagination an tolerance an if they'll listen
fin their no right then we'll be fine.

disengagement

I am nobody's little weasel

people who can engage in honest self-assessment...this is a hard thing to do, sometimes harder than others, and many people avoid it for whatever reason

but those who can do it are strongerin character in my opinion

nice topic...way to go pretty

Democrat Maxine Waters: "Under the outstanding leadership of Mr. Frank Raines everything in the 1992 Act has worked just fine. In fact, the GSEs have achieved their housing goals. What we need to do today is focus on the regulator, and this must be done in a manner so as not to impede their affordable housing mission."

Democrat Frank Raines is Barack Obama's economic advisor. He said: "These assets are so riskless that their capital for holding them should be under 2%."

"[Earnings to] Mr. Raines: 1.1 million$ bonus and a 526,000$ salary."
Cost to American people: 700 billion$.

Let them tell you in their own words

people with convictions (not jail time) People that start something and have moxie and drive to continue and follow it through. Whether success is reached in the end or not, it's the determination and 'giving a dam' attitude they showed to get there.

When we resolve to hurt, this is when we resolve to fail.

People who are unique and individual and not afraid to be who they are and stay true to it no matter what people say or think.
