We are all allowed our own ideas, feelings, likes, dislikes and beliefs. What I honor is my friendship with you and the wonderful person that I know you are. Letting politics come between that would be pure silliness. I totally and completely respect your feelings and am sorry that this is concerning you so much. I obviously have no idea where the country is headed and can only hope that some good decisions are made. In the meantime, I will enjoy my life and my friends. I hope that you can find some peace around this. You have so much wonderful to offer the world and I hate to see anything depressing you. <BR/><BR/>Very sorry, too, about the fibro pain. I am sending lots of hugs and pain relieving thoughts your way.<BR/><BR/>TamaraTamara (TC) Stapleshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00633350990983632539noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4479548328227905152.post-79768200246330490322008-11-17T13:18:00.000-05:002008-11-17T13:18:00.000-05:00At this point I'm not sure we can do worse than Ge...At this point I'm not sure we can do worse than George W.

Stuck between a rock and a hard place who do you vote for. I voted for the party that won't sell the national assetts given I work for one of them. <BR/><BR/>I agree characters are important in politics and its a real shame there are not many honest ones that we can look up to.Sonnie-Deehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10580683014074076702noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4479548328227905152.post-12947371650586077262008-11-15T23:43:00.000-05:002008-11-15T23:43:00.000-05:00Dear Tracy,I am glad you wrote this post.

I fear too many people voted because of the economy and not the moral issue..... When a man evokes the name of God and states that he is a Godly man and on the other hand supports the abortion law then I question his Christianity. If he signs the law now in the congress that all hospitals and clinic that receive payment from the government such as welfare and Medicaid must preform abortion on demand it will cause the immediate closing of hundreds and hundreds of hospitals that will not comply to this law.... The Catholic hospitals and Baptist hospitals in this state will close on the spot....they will not comply to this law and give abortions on demand. The Christians would rise up at the very thought! That will cause sever economic repercussions. <BR/> He has spoken pretty words.. but we will see what his actions say....... Also if he is a friend of the far right as has been proven, then he is not a friend with Israel..... if he is not a friend of Israel then he is not a friend of God....... I am sorry but I so agree with you.. I fear what he will do to this country ...... I know that God is the ultimate authority in our nation and this may be the day and time for this country to be brought to its knees.......Obama may be the man that brings us to our knees........ We will see.. We have our opinions and we have the right to speak them...... What we do girl is pray ....... Keep our eyes on the Father..... HE has a perfect plan for this nation... we may just not see it! <BR/><BR/>Love ya.Denisehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12492336975389718296noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4479548328227905152.post-11689500716781167822008-11-14T21:36:00.000-05:002008-11-14T21:36:00.000-05:00Awww ty Stacy.

Hugssssssssss to you my twin.<BR/><BR/><BR/>Hi Wolf, I know several people who felt like you did. I myself did not care for either candidate either, and had similar feelings. However there were areas about McCain that I did respect and like. Just did not like some of his character issues also. I do not know what the answers are for this country but I do not believe Obama is the answer either.<BR/><BR/>HugsssssssTracyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04095334529245360072noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4479548328227905152.post-24575636144484825642008-11-14T17:46:00.000-05:002008-11-14T17:46:00.000-05:00they gave us a choice between bad and worse when t...they gave us a choice between bad and worse when they give us a choice between decent and decent then I will get around to voting until then I abstain. alot of people get mad at me for that but I won't vote when my vote dosn't really count anyways and when I don't really agree with either of the canadites presented. if it makes you feel anybetter his ties to some people/groups scare me to.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4479548328227905152.post-71531602404691025312008-11-14T16:30:00.000-05:002008-11-14T16:30:00.000-05:00Hey sister of mine!I too agree with you on this su...Hey sister of mine!<BR/>I too agree with you on this subject, but as you have said we will just have to give it to God and hope for the best..........I'm sorry that you are still having problems with your fibro :( I hope you start to feel better soon!

Do not get me wrong, i to want things to change. I feel the economy needs to be boosted! This country is in huge trouble. I agree with you there. I just do not believe President Obama elect is the one that will actually accomplish that. I do hope i am wrong. I really hope i am wrong truthfully, since he is will be the leader of this country very soon. Anyway I am praying for this country.

This being said,I hope that this man turns this country upside down and put it back to what out Founding Fathers had in mind instead of the rich corporations,and special interests dictating how our country is run.If this happen I will be glad. for that change needs to happen then maybe we will escape the problems we are facing like forclosures,banks failing. bring back the kind of watch dogs that we had before the financial mess that we are in now.Mike Golchhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14472496241893921107noreply@blogger.com
