News Flash

So recently I have been watching a lot of Fox News...for several reasons.

1) My grandmother is in town and I'm pretty sure she believes that is the only channel all TV sets receive because that is ALL she watches. oh, well she watches wheel of fortune too, she could make wheel of fortune go bankrupt if she was on that show.

2) I am a registered voter this year and I feel it is my civil duty to at least know a little bit about the issues and people I'm choosing between.

3) I really enjoy watching the anchors get frustrated and yell at each other and then wish each other "the best" and flash their pearly whites at the end.


Yes I know niether of these fine young men are candidates this year. i just really like this picture.

I hate it when people try to bring up politics like they know what their talking about though. I will openly admit I know little to nothing about politics. [a side note: a flock of geese just flew by my window, doesn't that mean winter's coming?] I know a little bit about each party and some stuff about what each candidate stands for etc. etc. I'm not really a fan of politics now that I think about it. When it gets down to 2 months before the election the candidates just start focusing on how McCain doesn't even know how many homes he has and how un-american that is or how Obama has the right to say Palin has no experience, when Obama has never even been governor. I don't know much about Palin, but personally I'm really excited we have a woman candidate for the Republican party, did you know she has 5 kids! That should be experience enough. I joke.

I was thinking about it and have we ever had such opposite candidates? When you consider age, race, experience in power, faith in the government and their views on the world they are definitely contrasting. Obama is a whole generation younger than McCain. BUT, they are going after the same voters, independents who aren't die hard for one party or another.

So, there's the wisdom I have taken in and you will probably never hear me talk about politics again. That one's free. ha! Approximately 2 months and 5 days to election day!
