I know whom I'm voting for thanks to someone that has shown me something that I didn't know before. I have been up in the air , back and forth from one to another. But in the end it comes down to whom you think will protect us ALL and our country and I now know that it will be John McCain. I'm still scared about Palin, but I'm more terrified to put Obama in office.
Why is it that we as a country have to be separated? Why can't we all work and pull together to protect one another? You see someone fall you stop and help them up. Right? Well, to me that's what has happened to us....the USA...we have fallen and it will take everyone to help get us back on our feet. So, I'm putting out my hand on the fourth of November to John McCain to get us back on our feet.

High Horses
Senator Ted Stevens found guilty as he should have been found. Sen. Ted Stevens reaction was" I am innocent. This verdict is the result of the unconscionable manner in which the Justice Department lawyers conducted this trail''. He also says he remains a candidate for re-election.
Of course he remains a candidate, he doesn't want to give up his cushy job with all his perks. His perks is what help him get in trouble. He is just like most of them that get ''Caught'', I'm innocent, even though he was caught with his hands in the cookie jar. I'm so over these big cry babies. He's 84 yrs old and to me that's way to long to be in office supposedly looking out for his people. Retire old man, not just because you're old but because you got busted and you still want to stay in the cushy office while saying I'm innocent even though everything showed he was guilty as sin.
Let these people rot, I'm tired of us just patting them on the head and letting them still sit in office.
The FBI reports hate-crime incidents in 2007 were down about 1% down from 2006, however anti-gay crimes increased by 6%. Blacks, Jews and gays were the most frequent victims of hate crimes. More than a third of all hate-crime incidents were categorized as vandalism or property destruction. Intimidation was the second most common hate-crime, followed by simple assault. I don't think any assault is simple.
I think if the faith groups would quit spilling out their hatred for the gay community and actually try to get along with them alot of these hate-crimes against gays would go away. How can you preach love in one breath and then condemn someone else just for loving someone the same sex in the next breath? To me it doesn't matter that you love someone like you all that matters is that you love someone and that you're loved back. How can you judge someone and then read the bible to us and basically tell us that only god can judge you. What in the heck are you doing if not judging someone because of the sex of their spouse,lover,boyfriend,girlfriend. So get off your high horse and quit doing what you are preaching against.

I have made up my mind. I really don't like either of the major candidates running so...I'm voting for whomever is on the ticket with them.
I know it's not the smartest way to vote, but I can't really vote for Obama or McCain. I vote in every election, so I am still gonna vote but just not for them. I have thought long and hard about this and this is the only solilution except not to vote and there's no way I'm not going to do that.
So, I know whom I'm going to vote for in my local elections...so now I'm all set, ready for election day.

Need Someone To Look Out For Us For A Change!!!
Man, what a nice day out today. The wind is blowing, nice & cool crisp day. I love the fall don't you. Well, enough of that. What's going on today?
The elections are getting closer and closer. Me, I'll be so glad when it's over, it's been to long listening to all the bull crap that's coming from both camps. It really doesn't matter who wins, they never do what they say they're going to do anyway. It's the same old line, ''they tell you what you want to hear to get elected''. It's true. It's a dream of mine,(a pipe dream, I know) to get someone in office that's going to do what they say they're going to do. Someone that's going to put us..the people first...their country first.
I know other countries look to us when a disaster happens, but I know no one will offer us billions of dollars if such a disaster happens to us. These countries have their hand open wide to get what they can from us, but let something happen and we'll be the first ones pushed under the bus. I feel we should get out of the United Nations, NATO... all of it. After all these years of just giving away money to other countries we should finally take care of our country first and foremost. But, hey, that's just my opinion.
Take care of the people that are losing their jobs right here near the holidays, yep, November is right around the corner.
So, tell me John McCain, why do you think companies should get tax break while out sourcing jobs to other countries? We have thousands losing their jobs everyday while these big companies are still making their money with help FROM YOU.
So, Barack Obama, tell me how you are going to make us feel good & safe about our leaders in Washington, D.C.? Show me how you are going to make us believe in you?
We need someone to look out for our country, to finally put us..the people first.Is it Obama or is it McCain? That's the real question of the day isn't it!

Things that are bugging me today
Today went by fast. It seems like you never have enough time in the day to complete everything you need to do. I went next door and visited with my neighbor, took my little dog Sugar with me. She was dressed in her Sunday go meeting dress, pink & frilly. I have never had a little dog before this one and she's a handful. She loves to dress up, take bathes/showers. It's like having a little girl in the house, I mean my two big dogs are girls but they don't like dressing up.
Has the world gone to hell in a hand basket are what? I read in the paper yesterday where an 89 year old lady was arrested because she didn't give the neighborhood kids back their ball. Hells bells people. She's 89 and she doesn't want the kids running all in her yard, they are always knocking the ball in her yard. I'm not 89, but I'd be pissed off if young ens keep coming in my yard. The paper said it was part of an on going feud in the neighborhood, it sounds like a big bunch of crap to me.
So, we have 13 more days to hear about the elections. I'm still no closer to choosing whom I'm going to vote for. I have decided my local elections but not the big one. Tomorrow I'm going to their websites and finally choose whom I'm pulling for. If only I can vote for Hillary, her party did her dirty and I would be pissed with them if I was her. But that just shows that she has class. Believe me I was not always her fan but over the years I have come to like and respect her. I would really have liked to see her run. I just can't see McCain/Palin in office, but then I can't see Obama/Biden in there either.
I told Razz, my husband that I think it's going to be a lean Christmas for a lot of people this year. People are losing their jobs, their homes, they don't even want to think about spending more money. I pray to the heavens that my husband and sons have jobs. Well, that's about it tonight, I'll write tomorrow.

A day @ the Norfolk Botanical Gardens
Here's some pictures I took when a friend and I went to the Norfolk Botanical Gardens. I thought it would rain that day, but the rain held off until that night. I hope you enjoy them. It has taken me 18 yrs to get out and go places that my city and the surrounding cities offers us the chance to go visit.

In the paper today.
In today's paper was an article about the candidates campaign contributions. Holy crap, do you know how much each one has raised through August. McCain has raised $210 million, and Obama has raised $454 million. Yes, I said million. I'm like...what the hell!!!!
Does it actually cost that much money to run for office in this country? I think that is absurdly high, I think it is outrageous. With what's going on in our country with the money woes and then you see this, that's just crazy as hell.
Also, in the paper was about Sarah Palin going on Saturday night Live. Who cares... not me, for one. Is this to show her as a real person? Show me how you will run the country beside McCain if you win..not showing me you can do comedy. I have never watched SNL, and guess what...I probably never will. This is one election that I'm not liking either of the candidates and appearing on a TV show isn't going to make me choose them.
I need help figuring out whom to vote for and appearing on comedy shows, talk shows(late night) isn't making them look good in my eyes. These so called debates they had sure didn't show me anything other than I wish this election was over with already. They just sling mud at each other and don't give any real solutions on what they're going to do if the win. So, I'm still stuck, where is Hillary, why can't I have my Hillary....why...why....why????

Okay I was asked this not long ago and here are some of my answers.
Likes***
Animals..espically babies
A cold crisp night with the moon shining bright
The mountians,they're sooo powerful
The ocean waves, mother nature at her finest
A nice cold glass of diet mt. dew
Talking on the computer with people
Cruising the net... I love Earth Album.. if you havn't been to that site...go
The zoo, went for the first time...loved it
Reading a great book.. one you just can't put down
My friends, talking and sharing with them
Now some of my dislikes
Dislikes***
People talking on the cell phone while driving
People not using their turn signals when driving
The so called officials we put in office to take care of us
Smoking.. don't like it
People in Suvs, or vans or trucks truing to exit parking lots onto the highways. They pull close to the road blocking your path so you can't see what's coming.
People that drive in the rain when they should be at home
I have alot more but I tend to have more dislikes, what are some of your dislikes and likes......
