...Not to get all political on yo ass, because I'm sure the last thing you come here for is a serious discussion on world hunger and trade policies. Or on tax cuts or welfare. Or war... health care... teenage pregnancy. Yes, I think I could probably humor myself and go on with a list of things you likely don't come to my blog to read about.
And I have made conscious efforts over the past few years to really not involve myself in politics, because I can't seem to separate the snakes from the lambs long enough to put emotion aside and brandish logic in a conversation. It hasn't been until recently that I'm inspired enough again to get involved. ("Change!") ....And because I read this the other day and decided I couldn't put it any better myself, Heather Armstrong of dooce.com will relay my Palin opinion for me...
"I am angry. I am infuriated. And I don't think I would be if Sarah Palin were a qualified or competent choice as McCain's running mate. But the fact, the reality is that she is not. And instead of demanding better from their party, instead of going, wait a minute, no, we deserve better than this, many Republicans are contorting themselves into a denial of reality."
Wow. Republicans and contortion? Denial of reality? I am BAFFLED. And LOST. It's so completely OUT OF CHARACTER.
...In all seriousness, I didn't take to this blog to publicize my beliefs and my goal here isn't to sway you (or to offend you)... The truth is ~ it doesn't matter what I think.
I just like to pass on info when people are so kind to pass it on to me... And in keeping with the good fun that is this oh-so-enjoyable posting... John Stewart is pure genius. See for yourself:
P.S. Obama '08.
..........What? ...You SO saw it coming.
