McCain/Palin Ticket vs. Obama/Biden Ticket

How much thought did McCain put into his selection of a running mate? Did he wait till Obama picked so he could pick something opposite? Was he thinking that Obama would pick Clinton?

I think there are few in Washington who have a serious objection to Biden. Biden has a reputation of being level-headed and thoughtful. Maybe not a firebrand or a lively guy - hey I remember the bowties - but he is well liked by everyone. You know who he is and where he stands. He rounds out the Obama ticket nicely.

McCain picked the worst person he could find! He just wanted a woman to catch the female votes lost when Hillary stepped out and then wasn't picked for Veep. What a stupid move! At his age, too! His running mate will likely be President before the first term is up.

This is one of the scariest elections I've ever seen. If McCain/Palin win, I'll have to give up all and move. I don't want to live in a world where people don't think. Some of you may be saying, "Let her!" but think of living under the kind of government that she will bring about.

I live in "Fundamental-Christian-Bible-Belt-Land." A lot of these folks think that "bringing the Lord back" means making the world a horrible place that only Jesus and God can save. What if they are wrong????? What if Jesus/God/Universal Intelligence could care less about the human race????? Do YOU want to take that chance?

For the record, I'm a Christian, too. I just happen to think that we should do our level best to make a world that we and our children would be glad to live in, not the other way around.

Gas Prices

Think of this - gas was a lot cheaper before we stuck our noses into Iraq. The "Bush Doctrine" has padded the oil company pockets at the expense of the people of this country. Remember that Bush has a reputation of being sneaky, underhanded and does things unethically. He fleeced millions from his oil company buddies back in Texas. So, now that he's President, he's making good on his promises.

I wonder what they have on him that makes him actually act with honor to those he fleeced before????

So, he's finally forced to step down - unless he declares martial law and stops the election, which I don't put past him.

I saw a pickup with a message painted on the back window that he got robbed by the oil companies - not quite right though. Think about it.... Bush was bought and paid for long before he ever ran for President. Why do you think he put Cheney in the co-pilot's chair? I'm sure he had someone a lot more fun in mind.

She's What?

Palin thinks she's ready to "run the country" - over John McCain's dead body of course!

Which her stupidity will bring about if nothing else does....

Read 'em and weep, folks.

And I'm seeing McCain/Palin bumperstickers already popping up all over Knoxville. Do these people even have a clue?

So, she's anti-abortion - look at the full picture PUH-LEEZ!!!!!

Is This the End of Capitalism?

The government takeover or guarantee of financial markets in so many markets is very scary. It's the take over of the capitalist system. No more free market- no more risk of failure. And MASSIVE government debt!

Enough!

Let things fail. That is the price to pay for stupidity.

Face Your Consequences!

Tennessee Church Shooting

That was my church.

I'm OK, but I lost a friend. It's been a wild week. A lot of emotion and pain. There have been so many meetings with folks I haven't seen in a long time. It's been pretty overwhelming.

I'm not used to being around so many people, so I'm a little burned out.
