Ok this is very different for me to be overly interested in politics. BUT I must say I am pumped about the McCain/Palin ticket! I spent last night and tonight watching their speeches and I am so pumped about the possibility of having them as our leaders. McCain has so much class and didn't waste any of his time slamming other people. He has done so much for our country and I am AMAZED by his war stories. I love the way he just simply states his ideas and has faith in the fact that what he is saying is right. It is definitely clear (in my opinion) that he has our Countries best interest in mind!
I don't know much about Sara Palin at all, but from what I can tell she is GREAT! She has what seems to be a really great family and she's not afraid to admit that they aren't perfect. It is absolutely insane that supporters of "you know who" will get on TV and use the F word every other sentence about the republican party and then judge a 17 year old girl for getting pregnant and judge McCain for his failed first marriage. The fact these people who live by the idea of "do whatever makes you happy" actually have the nerve to come down on this poor girl is beyond me. I was actually on people.com today and was looking at pictures of all the celebrities piling into Denver to be at the convention. Among them were numerous people who have children out of wedlock, people who believe in religions like Scientology, people who are on their 2nd or third marriage etc. Here is a little blurb from one of many things written about Palin's daughter...
"Unwed pregnant teens, redneck baby daddys, shot gun weddings -- are these the corner stones of GOP family values? In case you didn't hear, John McCain's baked Alaskan has a pop tart. Yes, Sarah Palin's 17-year-old daughter Bristol is unwed and five-months pregnant, by Levi Johnston"
"If Sarah Palin has accomplished anything in this election cycle, it's to expose the right wing extremist for the bigots and hypocrites they are"
I am not one to judge and I know people come from a variety of backgrounds and have a variety of beliefs. I also understand that some people that define themselves as "Republicans" are terribly hypocritical and closed minded, even racist and probably stir up a lot of hatred in a lot of people. It just gets a little bit disgusting when people start throwing insults at innocent people and are SO horrible hypocritical! Uggh....it is just disgusting! I do need to say that I have respect for Obama as well. I can't imagine how hard it must be to be in any politicians shoes. I agree with VERY LITTLE of what Obama has to say, but I don't think he is a bad person.
So there is my 2 cents about the McCain/Palin ticket. I am loving it! :) GO USA! :)
