I'm Not Voting For Obama
I'm not voting for a man or not, not voting for a woman. I'm voting for ideas. Belief. Hope. Responsiveness. Integrity. Honesty. You know, all those things the other side apparently sold on e-Bay along with that jet.
I'm voting for leaving books in the library and my bedroom door shut. For not just preaching "Family Values", but living them.
I'm voting so we can stop hearing about that mythical "Bridge to the Future", stop worrying about that "Bridge to Nowhere", and start rebuilding our actual bridges so that the tragic, preventable disaster that happen in MN doesn't happen to anyone else.
I'm voting to have a president and vice-president who know how to pronounce nuclear and can find Russia on a map, not just see it out their window.
Oh, I'm checking the box by Obamas name in November. Just like I did back in Febuary in the primary. But I'm really voting for myself. More accurately, for my kids.
