Week of September 28, 2008 - October 4, 2008

Annoyed with Katie; Sarah, You Just Don't Understand


According to Sarah she was annoyed with Katie Couric because she didn't let her tell Americans how Obama would raise their taxes and McCain would lower them, and how McCain would save health care.  Well, son of a gun and spit on my shoe!  She is goin' all around Jack Robinson's barn! 

Well, she has the McCain campaign to thank for that:  Sarah, we don't know ya.  You haven't let us get to know ya either.  You have stayed away from reporters, and so Katie was tryin' to give us a window into who ya are...wink, wink!

So, with all respect, your negative comments about Obama carry no more weight than some guy we find ourselves sitting next to at the bus stop until you let us know who the hell you are and where you're comin' from. 

So Katie was right, and you were wrong.  Until you show us that you have put any effort and thought into issues that actually affect our country, we'll wait for ya to get back to us!  Wink! Wink!

Breaking! Bill Clinton Officially Campaigning for McCain!!!


Did anyone see the Meet the Press interview with Bill Clinton?  These are a few highlights:

1.  An old quote from Bill about how McCain is a great man.  Could he say the same about Obama?  Short answer -- NO.  Long answer:  to John McCain, who was a POW and came back never asking for simpathy has served our country; Obama has only served x number of years and so HIS greatness will come when he is President and has the opportunity to do good.  (Not if you can help it, Bill!)

2.  Will he campaign for Obama?  Answer:  Hillary convinced him to do it, and so he will (reluctantly) do whatever he is asked.  (Thanks but no thanks, Bill on that campaigning thingy).

3.  When asked about Africa, Bill brought up 10 countries that have a high opinion of the USA.  Why?  Well, first of all because of George Bush's malaria program!!!!

4.  What does he think of Obama?  Answer: Well, he is smart and has learned alot during the primary -- unspoken message --> he still has alot to learn.

5.  Do you think Palin is taking disaffected women who backed Hillary?  Short answer:  Yes, some of them, because Palin is really impressive.

I could go on but I had to leave.  He clearly wants McCain to win.  There is no doubt in my mind.  He answers as though he has this "integrity thing" that keeps him from saying one single positive thing about Obama, when it is clearly a vengeful small-mindedness.  I am furious with Bill!

Anyone else?

Bio

The first thing I did when I turned 16 was go out and apply for a passport. I've travelled widely, and lived in Europe for a while. I have 3 children; 23 (girl) 19 (boy twins), and after staying home with them for 17 years, I went back to nursing 3 years ago. It was hard to find someone to hire me, but I am in a wonderful office (infertility, ivf, etc) and work with great people.
