Christina said...: Not a surprise. I had heard something similar done by Howard Stern, of all people. That was even more disgusting because actual policy statements were attributed to the opposite candidate and so Obama supporters were asked if they agreed with policies that McCain actually proposed (often the exact opposite of what Obama proposed) and, of course, they thought those (Repub.) policies were great if Obama came up with them.

It's such an obvious lack of critical thinking, education and media misinformation.

These people will get what they asked for, but they won't like it, because they didn't know what they were getting into in the first place.; 11/20/2008 7:34 PM

Again, this is so shallow. Why didn't anyone want to vote Alan Keyes into the WH? Because he is a conservative Christian man, period.; 11/21/2008 12:17 AM

As far as voting is concerned, I have hope for the future. Obama is an aberration. Liberal masses are undisciplined and lazy by nature and not easy to motivate. Most liberal leaders are unexciting because they're really just old lax parents. The combination leads to low voter turn out on the left. Then they sit home and complain about being disenfranchised. Obama managed to whip them up into an emotional frenzy (seen that behavior anywhere else???) and they showed up to vote. That isn't likely to happen again.; 11/21/2008 6:19 AM

Thanks for the compliment on my kitty. That is actually my cat. Bob. (A girl) I found her with the tiara on her head, just hanging out, one afternoon. Apparently, my four-year-old thought it would be fun to put the crown on Bob, and Bob, being the laid-back gal that she is, just left it there.

Cats are definitely better than dogs! Glad to see you are a woman of great wisdom and discernment.; 11/21/2008 9:41 AM
