Im glad you commented back. Most people will tell you that I do not always agree with what occurs in Annapolis and DC, I make my own choices based on what my beliefs are.

My first choice was not McCain. In my opinion, the democratic ticket-and what they stand for – go against what I believe is good. I really do not think any party description fits where I particularly stand.

FYI, I was a registered democrat until the mid 90s. I found out that when I spoke up, they really didnt represent me, so I took my voting card and found somewhere else.

I do not believe that any of our choices are qualified enough, but I will hold my nose to at least participate in the process.

But thats MY opinion.

As a well known fact, Americans are free to believe what they want. You now know at least one Republican who wont chastise you for speaking your opinion, as long as it isnt filled with garbage.

Thanks for commenting Shiela, point taken. In fact I do usually make wide assumptions that Republicans are pro-war, when in fact very few people truly want the killing and horror of war. I guess the big problem I have is equating my belief that the federal government probably shouldn’t be able to decide what is a good reason for a woman to end a pregnancy with an assumption that I have less respect for life. I’m fully aware that it’s a decision that should always be made very carefully with full awareness of the consequences. And I think the government has no business in that choice.

Since I wrote the small comment that I think you misunderstood, I will clarify…

I was comparing MY pro-life status with my offense to war. Not all GOPers are pro-war.

You want to see something (relevant, even) that made me lose it today?

I wish there were loan sharks collecting on the bad spenders in our government ;)
