A rare post on politics from a concerned mother...

I have to admit that I am really starting to get into the race for President of the United States. With a new baby and lots of time nursing, I find myself on FOX news alot. The other night I watched a story on Obama and how he was the only one in the Illinois Senate to vote for a bill on something to do on abortion. I was horrified. The story was about a couple who found out their baby boy had Downs Syndrome. This couple decided to abort the baby at 22 weeks. After the killing, the baby survived for 45 minutes. This couple did not want to see this sweet baby and someone put the baby in a storage closet to die all by himself. Lets just say I was in shock. This really happens? A nurse in the hospital went to this baby and rocked him till he died. She didn't want the baby to be alone. I still am in shock just telling this story. This could be our future with Obama! I am scared of our country. I find myself liking him and his family. They can really put on a show. When I think of what he stands for and how liberal his views are... I cringe. There is so much more to him than the news lets us see. I think he is a decent guy with way different views on life and taxes than I have. I try to look at every side and be fair. Today when McCain announced his VP choice I had chills come up and down my body. Sarah Palin seems perfect. The more I learned about her the more I liked her. When they talked about her having a 6 month baby with Downs I just started crying. I was so glad she kept her baby. The older I get the more I know what is important to me. It is nice to feel so strong about something in life and not have an "I don't really care" attitude. Who knows what I will do with my new found passion?

For the first time EVER in my life, I am actually excited about politics. When I heard the announcement today, I called Dan and asked him to tell me more about her. I can't tell you how happy I am about this.
I too am totally into this political campaign! I find it fascinating. I began searching the internet to find out more about her, she is awesome!!! John McCain could not have found any one better as a running mate (in my opinion). I just hope this is enough to get Obama out of there!!!
He is not a decent man. He has been shielded by the media. The real Obama is a self absorbed, controlling, arrogant individual. In his acceptance speech he indicated that this election is not about him. Then who is it about??? All you can say is change, change, change...Change to what? A socialistic government lead by Obama the Messiah who will deliver us all. I think I have heard this speech before...actually I don't remember hearing it before but I have learned there was one like him that gave a similar speech before I came to earth. I chose not to follow him and I will choose not to follow Obama.
