saturday musings

I've got a few thoughts quickly before I dash off for the day. Of course, it has to do with the election.

1. When I heard Brian Williams announce Barck Obama president, I turned all Pentacostal; threw my hands in the air, thanked Jesus, God, and the Holy Ghost, and cried my eyes out. I can't remember a time I was so overcome with that much joy. It's a wonderful feeling to be on the right side of history.

2. John McCain, though I did not vote for him, is a stand-up guy and if he had run as a younger man, against another oponent, he might have won. Even though I'm not a Republican, I always said I liked John McCain and it would be tough for me if he ever ran. Of course, that's before I knew who Obama was - so, when the time came, the decision wasn't hard at all.

3. Shame, shame, shame on McCain top aides for raking Sarah Palin over the coals. I didn't think she was qualified but I did not dislike her as a person. How dare they be nasty to her. Campbell Brown said it best and I urge you to watch what she had to say about these nasty people. If the GOP had any sense at all, they would never hire these people again - for anything, not even gophers.

Hats off to John McCain who gave a helluva speech. If he had been so eloquent and chosen a different running mate, this election might have been different. Thankfully, he did not. And, so, a change has come. No more excuses.

worrisome

After I voted, I went to the grocery (Kroger). I was in the veg aisle where workers were restocking shelves. That's when I heard one worker say to a customer, "There's no way I'd vote for him (Obama). He's not a patriot." She went on to drag Obama through the mud and I couldn't help but think, "Are you the woman NBC polled in Kentucky after the primary who said you didn't vote for Obama because he's Muslim?"

No wonder people away from here always look at my feet to see if I have shoes.

35 minutes well spent

Peace be with us all

this is a scream!

I wear lipstick....and you're a dipstick......

What am I going to have to laugh at after this election? 

Well....it depends who wins, doesn't it?
