I do not claim to be very smart politically, but I do try to stay up on what is going on. And to get information so that I can make a good decision. I think your right to vote is an important thing and something everyone, who is able, should do. But I also think that there is waaaay to many people getting their info one sided and/or that info is not always right. I mean the media is so far left and that is pretty much all people get. I had someone say to me today that they did not understand why people keep claiming that Obama has no experience. I said because he really does not. Now mind you I do not like to get in these discussion's because I am not good at getting my point across, and I do not feel like I can clearly state my case, but I did not want this person to think that he (Obama) has good experience when he CLEARLY does not. Well, they started out by asking what I though about this election. I knew I did not want to say anything so I just answered with what I thought was a good answer. I told them that I really did not know, but that I knew God was in control no matter who is President. To which they replied Amen to that, ain't that the truth. Then that is when they made the comment about Obama having experience. When I said he really does not, they replied with "He has been in the Senate for over 20plus years." I said "um" no really I did. I guess I was a little dumbfounded and speechless. Surprise Surprise, I was at a lose for words. But not for long. I said no he had only been a Senator for like 2 years when he started his run for President, to which this person replied "Oh no he has been for over 20 years." I just decided that this was a losing battle and I kept my mouth shut. As I sit here typing this and wondering if I should actually post it, I get kinda upset. Because there are people out there who are making a decision that will effect us for the next four years and beyond and they do not have all the information or they have incorrect info. I am not naive enough to think that McCain and Palin are faultless, but I sure would feel better and safer if they were in office then Obama/Bidin. But who am I but one loly voter. Please no matter whether you vote the right way, McCain/Palin or whether you vote the wrong way Obama/Biden. LOL Just get Alot of information so you can make the best vote for you, then get out and vote!!!!!!!


I do not mean to offend anyone by posting this, but I think we worry about that to much. This is just the way I feel. Well, just a very small portion of what I feel on the subject, but all that I want to post about. Anyway sorry if anyone is offended. But I am not sorry I feel this way. Have a Terrific Tuesday!!!!
